Message: [QUOTE="bobbyinaz, post: 1685293, member: 3853"] This is the point that everyone glosses over because we so desperately want to be invited. UT is not interested in being made "whole" by rolling the LHN into a B12N. UT is interested in keeping the significant revenue advantage they currently have over their fellow conference mates. They[I] are[/I] the ultimate rich kid in that they want to always be able to say "we make more than you". In my opinion, any decision that allows Oklahoma, Kansas & the rest of the B12 to narrow the current revenue advantage UT has will be a no go with Bevo. They don't care about preserving the B12 unless it's under their terms because they don't need to. If they really valued their competition with OK and other B12 schools they would have stood up and said "we need to look at the revenue numbers but we are committed to the B12". There has been nothing from Austin which again, IMO, means that they have no interest in playing ball. With the LHN they are already in the $35-$40MM range, they won't be at a big disadvantage when compared to the SEC & B1G and they have a $10-15MM advantage over the rest of the conference. The TV deal runs thru 2024-25 so they can sit back & wait it out knowing that at the end of the day they will find a home regardless of what happens in CR. [/QUOTE]
