i see it as a positive...we finally have tacit acknowledgement by DMN that they cruise by pf.com for content & scoop..at least they're paying attention

ironic twist: have an uncle who was once a religion, sports, sunday reader editor at DMN (not all at once I dont think). Retired from there and went to other stuff ahead of the digital age.

RGV did it! He told me all he had to do was steal something Kate wrote and ILLEGALLY post it on ponyfans and 94 would come back to defend her honor! Congrats RGV, welcome back 94!

I believe we pull something like $3M/year from C-USA. If we received the same kind of deal, say, Baylor is getting (remember, it's the Big XII so it varies school-to-school) it could be anywhere from 15-18M per, and that doesn't count things like increased attendance.

I read somewhere that aTm has to pay a fine of about 30 million to leave big 12 after contracts signed last year. True ?

I have read the same. I also read that they would have forfeit a certain percentage of revenue from TV for the season prior to their move.

They are estimating a&m could owe north of $28 million. Take into account that Nebraska was projected to owe nearly $20 million and ended up only paying just north of $9 million.

They would be idiots to not make A&M pay the entire penalty. They have to lay down the law or else it just makes it that much easier for MIzzou or anyone else to leave.

I think it all depends on how much notice A&M gives the big 12 that determines what they have to pay

Why aren't we going crazy writing into the DMN, ESPN, SI.com, etc and letting everyone know that we want in the Big 12?!?! I think it's time that we start making some serious noise to anyone who will listen and let them know just how viable an option we are. Also, why aren't we banging down DeLoss Dodds' door? UT is blind to the fact that College football is going the way of the super conference.

We need to build upon this momentum from this article. You all know damn well Houston Cougar fans would...
