Neinas has zero say in the matter. This is between MU, the SEC, and the lawyers. I don't think some 80 year old guy who just took over as commissioner is going to call the shots here.

Neinas is just doing his job, trying to make the Big XII look as stable and strong as possible. I don't think his statements mean all that much.

I would think MU would do something similar. |

I don't know what the conference can say about MU leaving after they negotiated reduced exit fees with Nebraska and Colorado. The conference didn't fight to keep the league together, so Mizzou should be able to walk.
As far as I'm concerned, the conference is in violation of the contract. |

I never knew MU fans were such conceited, self-assured, douchebags as many here and on Tigerboard have revealed. Thanks for that.... |

You don't have to. You are welcome to look at the history of what has happened:
1. Nebraska breaks their contract and pays around 6 million. 2. Colorado breaks their contract and pays around 6 million. and conclude that: If Missouri breaks their contract (with a 12 team league that is now at 9 teams), they will be on the hook for 25 million. Have fun. |

He's probably referring to the renegotiation of tier 1 and 2. It may be that with a new contract the SEC could get a pretty good raise, but this analysis ignores the fact that the Big 12 is stuck with a way under-market tier 1 deal which comes up in 2015. In the end, the potential difference would probably be more like 5 or 6 million instead of 12.

2. The league hasn't changed anything regarding Missouri. They can't unilaterally change the contract. 3. The contract may have been undervalued with Nebraska, Colorado, and aTm. I doubt it gets revised upward with whatever teams replace them plus the existence of LHN. My guess is that the conference decides that they need to move forward and can't afford to play a prolonged game of chicken with MU, especially if they are battling the Big East for teams. I think, if MU leaves, they settle for 3-6 million. If those numbers are off, they are more likely to be an over-estimate than under. |

The bylaws are the bylaws, you can't wave your hands at them and claim they no longer mean anything, and they most certainly DO specify the penalty for leaving without adequate notice. The Big 12 merely made a business decision that it was better to waive part of the penalty in the past. I don't know for sure that they wouldn't do that with MU too, obviously, but the Big 12 commissioner is talking like, in a sharp contrast to the past 3 schools, that Mizzou will be held to the full penalty. |
