I noticed in an article on Yahoo that Neinas was saying that they expect WVU to be in the Big 12 next year. Kinda odd that he wants WVU in the Big 12 in violation of the bylaws of the Big East, but expects MU to fulfill their obligation to the Big 12.

That's probably because the Big East has 5 teams and doesn't have a 1.2 billion dollar TV contract.

It's still a conference....I understand your point about it being reduced in size by almost 50 %, but it's still a conference. If Neinas is pretty much telling WVU to abandon the Big East he can't be hypocritical and act like he wants MU to stay.

In my opinion, the push to get WVU in next year is to allow Missouri to go and yet save the TV contract. I'm not sure why the Big 12 would want to play the season with 11 teams. |

If MU leaves next year, and I expect them to, they'll pay no less than what CU paid but more likely around what NU paid regardless. |

Although I would spring for a Cheeseburger for Neinas as an extra. |

How about the whole series of Matlock on VHS. I'm sure his grandkids bought him a VCR at some point.

From what I have read, the league hasn't even begun to negotiate exit fees with aTm yet, despite the university pestering the conference to do so. |

I'm not vouching for anyone in this thread, but I've consistently stuck with $6-$12 million. It may start at $27 million, but in the end it'll $6-$12. |
