"I've Been a Fool For You

Texas is playing the Big12 for fools. Oliver Luck learned yesterday that UT had entered a non-disclosure agreement with the Big10 a few months back and have been hammering out details for UT to join the Big10 with another school(GT-according to what Luck was told) to make 16. The LHN, which was once considered the biggest hurdle to overcome, would remain UT's and Espn's but BTN would also get UT content-just not as much as the other 15. UT would take a smaller share of BTN revenues(which will grow astronomically after adding GA and TX) than the other members but still stands to make over $50 million per year for all tv money(non-postseason ) according to projections from the B10. That's all the info I have been able to obtain in regards to this matter and what I have now was obtained from eavesdropping on my sources part. Luck seemed shocked and surprised at this news but it doesn't seem to have deterred him from taking the job even though during his interview he pitched a 12 team B12 with 8 games and a CCG.

I won't pretend to understand how the big10 plans on skirting the GOR but everything I've been hearing is hinting that the answer is in the details of what the networks are actually paying for-yes, they are TV rights to a university's athletic games-but those games have a specific name and description. Failing that, the B10 has stores of cash to pay for a broken GOR or 2 if need be.
Will UT move to the Big10 and what does that mean for WVU and the rest of B12? Before anyone jumps off a bridge keep this in mind: last year the Big10 had as many as 8 of those non-disclosure agreements in place with various schools and only 2 came to fruition. But if UT were to bolt the B12...well, that changes everything."

So is this bad news for UConn?
 
I think there could be some truth to it. Remember this?

Big Ten expansion: It isn't done. That's about all I can say. Hint: The conference will begin negotiating on a new TV deal next year. The current contract expires in 2016. Definitely stay tuned.

While I believe it is likely that U Texas has a back-door built into the XII GOR because it is Texas’s nature to treat it self above and apart from the rest of the XII, the B1G would not take them alone. Contiguous states is not a golden rule for B1G expansion as stated elsewhere; but, there is a lot of distance between Austin and the next closest B1G school (Nebraska 800 miles & Illinois 1,000 miles). The B1G would also have to take Oklahoma (370 miles) and Kansas (700 miles) for it to make logistical sense. Kansas gives a big basketball name to the B1G and it is AAU while Oklahoma would qualify as another ‘Nebraska’ exception to the AAU rule to get a major brand in football. Plus, the other big issue is politics as I am not sure politically the folks in Austin would allow the Horns to bolt without a safe haven for Texas Tech to fall into as the XII would explode if U Texas left. Plus, there is no way is the B1G taking Texas Tech. Same issue with Oklahoma State and Kansas State.

Of course, this would give the B1G 17 schools and UConn would make a nice eastern addition to get to 18 (though I think the B1G would want 16 or 20 schools, not 18).

And by the way, U Texas may have the weight to carve itself a GOR escape pod from the XII; but, G Tech does not have such weight in the ACC. Plus, G Tech would also be another geographic issue as it is 570 (Ohio St) and 650 miles (Maryland) to the nearest B1G schools without adding UVA and UNC to the mix.

Talk of B12 going to 14 with UCF, USF, Cinci & BYU (fball only) popping up in Bellmont in Austin this week, I was told.

MH3 explains away the problem by saying "the B10 has stores of cash to pay for a broken GOR."

@ExpansionRumors @theDudeofWV @Manny_Insanity @gyoung5179 Remember FOX wants GOR broken, BTN will be a true Nat Net with 100 mil ++ viewers.

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV1h
@Iamgrizzly1974 @ExpansionRumors @Manny_Insanity @gyoung5179 Fox does not want the GoR broken. Where is that coming from?

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV1h
@Iamgrizzly1974 @ExpansionRumors @Manny_Insanity @gyoung5179 You can't break the GoR. Why is that so hard to understand?

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV1h
@ExpansionRumors @MH3 Just remember when none of this happens. when not a shred of it comes true. That I warned you guys.

pher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV1h
@Iamgrizzly1974 @ExpansionRumors @Manny_Insanity @gyoung5179 Expansion is over for the time being.

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV1h
I can't sit back and watch people intentionally deceive others with info they know is bad.

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV1h
If you don't believe the Big 12's GoR secures the conference for the next 10 years then I can't change your mind.

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV1h
If you want to believe that Texas has a secret agreement with the Big Ten then go ahead and suspend your logic & critical thought.

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV1h
Everything I've told you about expansion from day 1 has been sourced and corroborated by traditional media.

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV1h
I'm not pandering or trying to generate clicks to a site.

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV1h
As of right now I am severing any and all relationships I have with any site or organization because I don't want to be seen as - cont.

Just how the right people accountable for the bullshit they are trying to feed you when the time comes & remember I warned you.

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV1h
and yes.. it stops being fun when people intentionally mislead & that's what I believe is going on here.

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV1h
I'm done. I'll be back in December when its clear all of the rumors are false.

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV59m
Those who want to really know what's going on - or not going on - can email me.
 
so now they are going for the good cop bad cop routine?
Who's false information is more falsely falsified...

ps. check my 8:00am post. Then check 'the dude's' rant.
I'm taking credit for calling him out on trying to generate traffic on a website.

No doubt a tweet will come across saying the NCAA will be prioritizing teams in the new D4 based upon this year's football record. . .and as a bone to basketball centric schools, whether they qualified for the NCAA tournament last year. . .signed Mark Emmert.

Actually, if wide scale change happens, I think UCONN should be fine. If it's incremental, we'll be sitting tight a little longer.

yes... assume GT does go, you'd think Uconn would be the logical choice to fill their spot.

Yep.

As if Texas, while interviewing the athletic director of a school currently in their conference, would let slip plans to implode said conference.

It's as plausible as that Luck would share confidential information with M H v e r 3, thus killing his relationship with Texas but cementing his relationship with M H v e r 3.

I found their lovers quarrel to be hilarious.

The dood, to MH3...

"If you put info out you have theresponsibility to make sure it's as accurate as possible."
"What you are putting out is not accurate. It's so innacurate that it has to be from a 3rd party or on purpose."
"Just a little work on your part to verify what you are saying would prove how false it is."
"I know you have real contacts at WVU. I also know none of what you are saying is coming from WVU."
"This is too important for groups on the ouside looking in. Don't mislead them."

oh the irony...

MH3 responding to... no one, but definitely the Dood....

"I have a responsibility to no one and can share all the information I receive if I wish."
"And I will continue to take the high road and ignore your childish rants."
"As I've stated before: this isn't a job for me. It's just a hobby."
"I sell cars. Remember?"

Finally, I figured out which of them I can trust!

ucf primetimer‏@knightbengal2h
@theDudeofWV do you have anything else that wasn't in your blog post?

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV27m
@knightbengal Yes. Tons of data. Big 12 will move before 10 years. I say 3-4.

AJ Tech‏@tech_aj22m
@theDudeofWV @knightbengal If 3-4 yrs and the GOR is right with no possible defections, then why wait that long? What happens then?

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV20m
@tech_aj @knightbengal the yearly payout increases and makes it more comfortable for them to expand.

ucf primetimer‏@knightbengal19m
@theDudeofWV @tech_aj so they start looking in three years?

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV18m
@knightbengal You have 3 years to build your resume. Do it.

I'm not buying this. The B1G has gone out of its way to make all conference members equal. I cannot see them altering a fundamental conference characteristic for Texas, ND or any other school.

@85bevo Most of the expansion stuff is coming out of Texas. Disgruntled boosters. It's not true. Nothing is happening right now.

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV6h
Rumors continue to originate from disgruntled boosters in Texas that the Longhorns are looking for a way out of the Big 12.

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV6h
@justwinph @dougigem I said rumor for a reason. Because its not coming from UT itself.

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV6h
Texas is bound by the Big 12's GoR for another 10 years. They could fight it in court but the litigation would likely take longer than-cont

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV6h
any potential suitor likely could not wait because the Big 12 would ask for & receive an injunction to protect its rights.

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV6h
Texas could not choose to leave revenue behind and go anyway because its within the Big 12's rights to deny permission for UT games to be

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV6h
televised. That includes both home and away games. Any raise the suitor receivers for adding Texas would be paid to the Big 12.

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV6h
But the leadership of Texas know this. They know they are bound by the GoR have no value to anyone else.
 
Tuxedo Yoda‏@TuxedoYoda11h
Aggie boost in recruiting from SEC move is destroying Texas. Horns will be lucky to be relevant in 5 years. We have to leave the Big 12.
