Nebraska, Texas A&M, Missouri and Colorado were

schools in the Big 12 that left partly because of the long horn network. Which was a very good conference. Had those schools not left the conference would have survived.
You missed my point about profit sharing. There has been no profit to share.
The Big 12 died because of Texas greed and espn's stupidity.

Yup...change is happening ** -- daveinop 05/04/2017 4:19PM

I think it happens, but payouts involve profit sharing. -- chuckd4vt 05/03/2017 9:27PM

Doesn't there have to be profit before there is sharing? -- Maroon Doom 05/04/2017 10:50PM

Big12 was killed due to basic geography. -- chuckd4vt 05/04/2017 10:57PM

Actually, from what I gather, the LHN is now slightly profitable. -- chuckd4vt 05/05/2017 12:05AM

It is the big unknown -- daveinop 05/04/2017 10:24AM

I'm sorry, but I just cannot get over the money that was left on the table. -- chuckd4vt 05/04/2017 12:51PM

Getting over it is a choice ** -- daveinop 05/04/2017 4:18PM

Not when the same culprits are in charge. -- chuckd4vt 05/04/2017 6:41PM

Contraction isn't going to happen... -- BROman Hokie 05/04/2017 1:51PM

Same was said about expansion. -- chuckd4vt 05/04/2017 2:10PM

Not to mention the whole matter of having a contractual agreement. ** -- VTBB 05/03/2017 8:18PM

There is a contract in place, but what isn't publicly known are -- VTHokie2000 05/03/2017 9:56PM

Wadr, re: -- daveinop 05/04/2017 10:26AM

Maybe, but with the instability of linear vs. cord cutting -- VTHokie2000 05/05/2017 12:44PM

How much is the ESPN deal worth? ** -- reestuart 05/03/2017 8:00PM

I wish we knew -- daveinop 05/04/2017 10:37AM

I guess we'll find out soon enough, but I also don't think that -- reestuart 05/04/2017 12:45PM

Very good. Thanks for posting. ** -- goldendomer 05/03/2017 7:59PM

John Swofford issued a Memorandum on this across the Conference today. -- HOO86 05/03/2017 7:17PM

Skipper's statement is a verbal committment. We'll see on signing day. ** -- Gator Hokie 05/04/2017 06:54AM

Espn -- SoCloseHokie 05/04/2017 07:58AM

Yep, & live sports is the only thing bringing ESPN ratings right now ** -- BROman Hokie 05/04/2017 09:56AM

That memorandum doesn't mean much. -- Atlee Hokie 05/03/2017 10:07PM

Means Swofford has learned to address social media rumors -- HOO86 05/03/2017 10:39PM

Sometimes he does learn stuff. -- Atlee Hokie 05/03/2017 10:59PM

It is full speed ahead until some changes the plan and then it may -- VTHokie2000 05/03/2017 9:37PM
