ESPN buys out Big 12 pro rata for $10MM, Fox does nothing

So the per team share is only $125,000 extra per year? That's nothing.

I read that as an extra $10MM per year

Nope... way less than that.

Are we talking $10M per year or $10 M total? either way, a mess of pottage

Crazy that the lesser schools could be bought off so cheaply given the stakes...

Double wrong. Those 2 currents schools aren't affiliated with Mormons.

Big 12 could have negotiated a much better deal for themselves WITH new schools

FOX doing nothing does leave the door open for expansion.

The Big 12 must still have this dream

why? b12 has better geography; meaning more quality teams near their nucleus, they pay out more per team now and

I can't figure B12 strategy out.

CosmoK

The problem comes in if they were previewing all the G5 teams for all P5s

Nat Gas Man

10/24/16 4:33pm

There's is no strategy. They're expecting the league to blow up

Holy crap. What a bunch of buffoons and cowards. These are Presidents? Dumb.

Wow, the B12 got ripped off. And it shows ESPN never wanted us to join.

Whatever happened in the meeting, they never talked about a single school and

Nat Gas Man

10/24/16 3:48pm

In the Presser they said they never talked about any school. Not buying it.

lbmango

10/24/16 4:37pm

I would think schools are the first thing you talk about.

Jacob

10/24/16 6:42pm

Obviously they want to avoid speaking about individual schools in the presser. And it seems logical that they actually

So I'm guessing the Big XII was going to add 4 teams & the networks nixed that.

I think this goes to show that this was not a play to just get extra cash from

The tv partners had no leverage

Just gotta hang on for 8 years... things will happen in time

jomo
