If this is correct and the administration and BOT is going against the obvious grain and opinion of all the speculators, media giants and the like, I hope they are tuned in to strong revelation on this matter.
We have a very bad track record in these matters, e.g., Gary Crowton, MTN contract, etc.
How much of this is revelation and how much is simply following your gut. If Mitt were making this business decision, he would be looking at the hard numbers and demanding conditions. I see this as a pure business decision. I can only hope that the business side is being acknowledged and being given time in the room for consideration.
All these years, the Big 12 has been our objective, and now that it is here, we suddenly think it isn't good for us???
Boy, talk about talking out of both sides of your mouth.
