If this is true, that OU and UT are not on the conference call… then it is

I’m guessing the offer is OU/TX get equal to highest conference

Nicole Auerbach of The Athletic reports that OU and UT were invited to the call

I’m surprised they’d refuse to negotiate. Although maybe it would’ve been a

OU and UT are not trying to get money from the Big 12

To me it seems there is a demand on the table. The conference has to

There is no demand on the table, not that the conference can do anything about

The B12 needs to start extending invites immediately to save itself

Pete Thamel agrees…

7/22/21 5:05pm

Arizona and ASU ain;t going. Maybe if Texas and OU stayed, but not now.

7/22/21 5:07pm

Agree… raiding of PAC teams does not happen unless something occurs to shake up

7/22/21 5:11pm

Nobody from an existing P5 conference is joining the B12

Why not Nebraska?

HONOMO

Because it's a $25M/yr pay cut

I agree but I think they need to decide to go East or West

7/22/21 5:09pm

You take the best of the rest, regardless of direction. BYU is best. UCF next. BSU. Then Cinci. Top-4.

7/22/21 5:11pm

What makes that the order? Legitimately curious

krindorr

Who is going to join right now?

Coug

Anyone not in a P5 conference

CaliWG

7/22/21 5:33pm

In an instable conference? You couldn't get a MAC team to join right now.

Coug

7/22/21 5:36pm

Even unstable if you add BYU, Boise, UCF, Cincy, Houston, Memphis, SDSU, etc.

No Memphis please.

I get it, but Memphis owns its market and has huge upside

The ones you listed:BYU, UCF, Cincy, Boise, and Houston + COst, SDST, UNLV

More then just Texas and OU are leaving... Bank on it

Coug

7/22/21 6:03pm

Agreed. But none of the other brands are significantly better than the elite G5s
