Dodd says it's the AAC that ESPN has been talking to

What? That was ESPN's play? They must have tried the other P5s first, right?

As long as they get them somewhere else, they can nix the tv deal

7/28/21 4:34pm

no - they want them ont he cheapest contract possible to save money. They just need them out of B12

Lol big 12 getting poached by AAC might be the best storyline of the year.

Makes more sense. PAC12 and Big10 aren't really interested, but AAC would be

Makes sense. AAC contract is a small ESPN contract. PAC & BiG aren't interested.

Okay, just going to reply to the OP but to all the posters who say this makes

The fact you mentioned P5 status shows you don’t understand the situation

NOCAL_YFAN

7/28/21 4:46pm

Okay, call it A5 status or whatever you want. Why would the Big 12 schools give

Shinshin

7/28/21 4:53pm

If ESPN says "this new contract will give you 15 million. Or you can stay and we give you 9. Take your pick"

I don't think ESPN has that option. ESPN is stuck with the GOR and TV contracts

Dennis Dodd reported that if there’s a loss of membership the B12 deal is open to renegotiate

molodyets

7/28/21 5:46pm

But as of right now, there is no loss of Big 12 membership until OU and UT leave

Shinshin

7/28/21 5:50pm

Grant of rights and membership are not the same thing

molodyets

7/28/21 5:53pm

How do you know ESPN can renegotiate the remaining 8 schools if OU and UT?

Shinshin

7/28/21 5:55pm

That’s what Dennis Dodd reported a few days ago

molodyets

7/28/21 6:01pm

Yeah, I am not inclined to believe this until I see the TV contract. If ESPN can

Not having to pay out 150mm to kill the longhorn network and pay the exit fees is quite a bit. And it depends on what

molodyets

I understood B12 TV contracts keep paying with 8 teams. Is that not correct?

It's a trap!!!!

It makes sense form ESPN's side. Keep up.

Interesting. Four days ago, Aresco said that the AAC would aggressively pursue

What a mess. Haha

7/28/21 4:50pm

Pretty dumb. ESPN's voice was not needed at all to make this happen, if

DirtyWater

B12 has a FOX contract, so of course ESPN wants to disband them by sending teams to conferences with ESPN contracts

This stuff is why I'm not sure BYU wants to join anything right now, even the Big XII "no matter what" as many here do

TEXAS

Yep, ESPN can get AAC on the cheap, because the brand is crap. So stuff the best
