I also think the expansion would have to include moves OUTSIDE the state of Texas. From what I was told this morning, I think the demands list is going to be unreachable. If the demands shockingly are met, Missouri would stay in the Big 12 with a MUCH stronger hand than before. If they aren't? Deuces. |

I want the university to kick both UT and OK in the ass and let them know there are more than just 2 players in this conference. Both are not playing with any sense of strength since they were rejected by the PAC 12. So it's time to make them realize if we stay it will be on better ground. But I think Texas' ego won't let them allow that...and for that matter neither will OU's. |

Iowa State will join the Mountain West, Mizzou will join the SEC, and the schools from Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas will form the KOTex conference for bleeding vaginas.

The next TV contract will be enormous for the ACC and it will be in large part because they will essentially have every major school from Miami all the way up the Eastern Sea board in their footprint. |

The other thing I took from it: Good God, what a pointy-headed little dweeb we have running our University. I've been in OK for the last few days listening to guys from A&M, UT, OU and OSU talking and they all sound like decision makers and aggressive leaders. Deaton sounds like an eager little poindexter. I know, it's superficial and it's stupid, but I just can't listen to that dude stammer in his high-pitched little voice and think "yeah, this guy is totally going to go toe to toe with Dodds and Boren..." I also couldn't help but giggle about the fact that he referred to his chairmanship and his 'leadership position' no less than 3 times in response to 3 different questions in the first 5 minutes of the presser. The guy absolutely loves his shiny new title. |

In this case, if OU and UT are committed to the Big 12 (and where else are they going to go at this point?) and it survives, there are no grounds for a lawsuit. If Missouri leaves before signing the new agreements, they wouldn't be in violation of any league bylaws. They wouldn't have broken any TV contracts or caused any long-term problems. Basically, UT and OU are staying, so the league will survive. And ESPN has already stated it won't alter the tv deal. They really can't, or risk being sued as well. |
