My theory is the UofA President/AD has been deploying a PR pressure campaign to
get GK to NOT reduce their revenue share to give UO/UW more money. They have been using Jason Scheer (a la Chip Brown and Texas) to strategically release info about media negotiations as they received it, and about the fact there were discussions with the Big12. With Robbins recent comments, your theory could be plausible.

Another theory could be that UofA has been given some assurance they won't receive a reduced revenue share (so their campaign essentially worked) and his comments were an attempt to repair some PR damage they inflicted on the PAC, while still leaving out there the leverage of leaving to the Big12 if the final deal isn't satisfactory (don't give up any leverage until the deal is signed, sealed and delivered).
