*****The Super, Mega, Huge Big 12 Expansion Thread*****

UT didn't want that long of a rights grant with the restrictions they agreed to for the LHN.

Restrictions? Apparently they just got more out of the LHN with the ability to put 2-3 fb games on there..

With the possibility of more games on their network I could see them being more open to 10+ years.

TCU's football attendance is down this year because their capacity is down while they rebuild their stadium.

It appears Big 12 survival is imminent and I won't have to change my screen name.

Found a theme song for the Big 12... Mainly for the title of the song...

Did anyone see the conference will now let LHN have up to 2 or 3 games a year?

I'd rather watch it on their network then on FSNowheretobefound. Or not televised. They will have to share revenues when we play on it.

I would imagine that it either means more of their non conference games or that the league schools would still have to consent to it.

No way is that conference games. Who cares about non conference games when you have 9 conference games.

Agree about being on TV somewhere but the share revenue part I'm not sure of. I'm pretty sure that UT did not agree to share revenue from the LHN (tier 3 rights)

I think if its a conference team that's on it, it's a bit different.

Wow, they are well endowed.

How much of that was just for females?

TCU to B12 official: Big 12 Board of Directors Authorizes Expansion - Big 12 Conference - Official Athletic Site

The action of the Board was without dissent. On the advice of legal counsel, The University of Missouri did not participate in the vote.

Neinas: "Hey Brady, please leave the room or hit the head. We have some expansion to talk about and it has nothing to do with mason jars."

I refuse to believe Tulane.

I refuse to believe Tulane.

AAU member. Adds some academic cred...but ya doubtful. If this blows up and everyone goes to 16 I would buy it. But not at 12 or 10
