If that substantial increase puts them over $40M/school....they will be at

least in the game with the SEC and B10. The PAC is falling further and further behind financially. If they hit a $20M/year difference per school, I expect fireworks, realignment or something way out of the box.

And right now the B12 could probably merge with the P12 and be the bigger dog

The tales of Big 12 demise seem to have been exaggerated.

Would it really have hurt to have a formal vote?

It is a common ploy to not sully the partner you are trying to bring on....

Pffft... just trying to distract us from how unstable a conference they are.

We all know TX envies us as an independent just a matter of time until they go

The B12 is doing fine financially and competitively. But they are still ripe

The P12 is the conference in trouble, by far.

Their safety lies in the fact nobody wants to poach their teams (geography)

Colorado might want to go back to the B12

4/26/18 6:44am

For money but nothing else. Actually if Colorado did go to B12 is a possible addition is BYU. Natural geography there

Culturally, Colorado fits better in the Pac12, but culturally, there's far less

4/26/18 7:19am

True- I just wish BYU to anywhere wasn’t a pipe dream

They are fine. They have money coming it.... just not at the rate of the others.

Big 12 not hurting at all. PAC 12 is hurting more than Big 12.

Good call, Colorado.

Hmm...the merger of B12 and PAC12 could be interesting

Or St and Wa St aren't going anywhere.

As long as Texas and OK is willing to stay the BIG12 survives. Texas might want more money and OK might think they can

Can we get Berry Tramel back on the radio or something? We liked his reports

Yes, this is thanks to their TV partners being put over a barrel.

The B12 will still fall apart - because of disagreements, not sports.

Big 12 leadership sucks...you make sure the votes are there BEFORE you announce
