Big 12 FB Media Days

Yeah, I’m generally not a fan of monster. The bigger issue I have is that they’re also changing the name, so the official name is “Monster Energy Big 12 Football”
And Men's and Women's Basketball. That logo is going to be all over everything for a while.
 
This guy gets jacked up on Monster

It's been hard to watch the Tech fans, media, and burners on X going absolutely mental with "everyone is out to get them", "the league is trash", and "they're going to the B1G". I truly felt like this was going to be more tame media day, and just try to make it water under the bridge. Boy was i wrong. You even have the Gauchos going after Jake Brend. I used to think the Gauchos were reasonable! They have absolutely become the new Texas, but with even more insane little brother syndrome (arguably worst than A&M). Is this just a state of Texas culture thing? Even if TTU left hypothetically (will never happen), but would Baylor or TCU start acting like this? Would OU fans and media be acting like this if they were still in the XII?

Oil money makes Texans do crazy s**t! Just remember back to the old SWC days
 
Apologies if I’m late to the game on this, but I noticed a Re/Max logo on Cy’s jersey from a video on the Big 12’s instagram. Are they going to be the jersey patch sponsors?

So it reads like if you don’t have a patch sponsor monster is your auto default?
You can have 2 so I think at worst this takes up one spot. Maybe neither. Either way, I don't think Iowa State was going to get $1M a year for a patch spot locally, so I'll take it.

Been in Texas a long time. It is a state of Texas thing. They think football was invented in Texas.

Yes, if it isn't Texas Tech, it'll be TCU or Baylor (or Houston give it time) that think they run the Big 12.
 
The Big 12 has tried to let the Sorsby situation fizzle out. The Tech fans and reporters are the ones keeping it alive. The Tech administration is not saying anything publicly to discourage them. Fine, nobody from Tech will represent or be nominated by the Big 12 for any college athletic functions going forward.

Looks like it's just a Cy thing. Maybe sponsoring the cheer squad or just a specific sponsorship to put a logo on Cy. This is from last season (second and third slides):
