B12 has more security than B1G then because B12 contract 2 years longer.

Dood is on crack today. B12 has more security than the B1G

I assure you it's not just today.

 

[Jae-VT]

KU should be 'safe' between their basketball image and AAU status, they would be attractive to the B1G and SEC as long as the state of Kansas is willing to potentially sacrifice K State to G5 status to save KU as a P4 school. OK is a wildcard as the state of Oklahoma may have to think about the same; but, with some credibility in football and basketball and a deep pocketed donor, I can see the SEC grabbing them with OU going to the B1G similar to who the SEC took 'risk' with TA&M to open the door to a new market as they could not get the big name in U Texas.

I don't mean to disparage KU at all with the following post, but if my memory is correct, wasn't KU one of the schools left scrambling back in 2011 when it looked like the Big-12 might collapse with the rumored defection of OU, OSU, UT and TTech to the PAC? Nothing that has transpired since 2011 for KU Football has given me the confidence to say that KU would be invited to one of the remaining power conferences.

Again, I do not mean to throw shade on KU at all, but let us also be honest; KU football is fetid swamp filled with poisons snakes and misquotes with Zika, i.e. not desirable at all. UConn is a blue-blood power program in mens and womens basketball and your school is in the AAC; what exactly has KU football done recently to deserve a place in a power football conference?

KU is a member of the AAU, someone will say; well good sir, so is Tulane and Rice. They also play FBS level football and they are both located in two states with top class FBS level recruits. Sounds preposterous does it not, my suggestion that Tulane and Rice would get invited to B1G conference? I would submit that the notion of KU joining the B1G based upon solely on their status in Mens Basketball and AAU status sounds just as preposterous.

Now of course KU could very well be desired by the B1G and they are a fine university. I guess my point is that unless you are a member of Jim Delaney's inner circle of councilors or a B1G member school president, all anyone says of this or that school joining the B1G is just conjecture, pure and simple.

I generally agree that there isn't going to be a line of suitors for KU if it hits the market. There may be some hope for the Little 8 that virtually all "traditional power conference" schools have remained part of the club, since the SWC was disbanded anyway. All BE schools found new homes over the years, when you consider the old Eastern Independents. Temple, ECU and Cincy were always kind of outliers, never really reaching that level prior to the BCS ending. Rutgers was saved by population, not competent football. If the ACC faced the same uncertainty, nothing would save the Wakes and BC's either, other than charity.

 

[TerryD]

He absolutely played both sides on ASU. And his announcement was the same day that it was announced that ASU wasn't going to B1G.

He then followed it up with the announcement that he was done reporting what his "BTM" was telling him. That lasted for a couple days before his his psychosis kicked back in & the voices in his head told him to start blogging again.

Because he has been the only one of the CR blogger buffoons to say favorable things about UConn this board, desperate for any good news, grabbed onto him & anointed him as the CR guru. There was even a point where people were trying to say that he was sharing info from Burton in an effort to justify his nonsense.

Did "he" admit that his Twitter account was multiple guys posting as one person, or was that some other Expansionista Twitterati?

 

[SubbaBub]

He is saying that the B12 just came to the collective conclusion that it is dying, and that admitted it. Of course they won't have to worry about it until 2024 and they will be lining up to pay 6-7 plus 4 more money sight unseen, now.

@MikeBrem @BasslerMiller What is your question again?

Mike Brem ‏@MikeBrem 5h5 hours ago
@flugempire @BasslerMiller Why is 2024 different than today for others? Why is ESPN/Fox more likely to dump "others" then than now? Thanks

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 5h5 hours ago
@MikeBrem @BasslerMiller ESPN/FOX has a contract with all of B12 for Teir 1/2 until 2024. "Others" will need to nail down extension

Mike Brem ‏@MikeBrem 5h5 hours ago
@flugempire @BasslerMiller Agreed, but why not enjoy Big XII $$ until then instead of letting OU/UT go now?

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 5h5 hours ago
@MikeBrem @BasslerMiller ....in "Relief Plan" the "others" $ would stay current until 2024. This is about after 2024 on $ and P5 status

Mike Brem ‏@MikeBrem 5h5 hours ago
@flugempire @BasslerMiller I get what you're saying but can't get my ahead around it. How do UT/OU ensure P5 status for others after?

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 5h5 hours ago
@MikeBrem @BasslerMiller Ilet's say KU/OU/UT/TT...leave B12 in 2024 then the ability for "others" to get above AAC $ in TV deal is nil

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 5h5 hours ago
@MikeBrem @BasslerMiller First..OU/UT wouldn't be let go now..maybe 2-3 years from now. Second.....

@MikeBrem @BasslerMiller This is not about changing TV deal for others before 2024 Its about others securing their best future after 2024

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 5h5 hours ago
@MikeBrem @BasslerMiller The Conferences which receive OU/UT & TV Partners ensure B12 P5 status for others early release of GOR.

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 5h5 hours ago
@MikeBrem @BasslerMiller Example: UT/TT goes to PAC..OSU/OU goes to SEC. B12-PAC-SEC have votes to keep reshuffled B12 as P5

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 5h5 hours ago
@MikeBrem @BasslerMiller In a couple of years the pressure will be enormous on the "others" to reach for compromise..to play chip.

@MikeBrem @BasslerMiller The Conferences which receive OU/UT & TV Partners ensure B12 P5 status for others early release of GOR.

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 5h5 hours ago
The"others"would not give up money nor P5 status they have coming to them until 2024 This is about securing >AAC $ and P5 status after 2024

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 5h5 hours ago
OU Contacts have info to believe OU's position is to sit tight..don't extend current GOR..wait for"others"to begin negotiations in 2019/20

Matt Wyers ‏@mkw_14 5h5 hours ago
@flugempire What's different about 2 years from now as opposed to a date that is sooner?

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 5h5 hours ago
@mkw_14 Perception. Just a belief in about 2 years the pressure mounts for "others" to secure a future above G5/AAC in $ and status.

Greg Flugaur ‏@flugempire 5h5 hours ago
@mkw_14 It's 2016 now...but in 2019/20 the recruiting..securing loans..pushing donors.. It will get difficult. Breaking point.

Latest from my source: expansion is jumping off the tracks.

MH ver3 ‏@MH ver3 3h3 hours ago
UT and Boren could find no common ground when they met last weekend. Can not agree on who to add.

MH ver3 ‏@MH ver3 3h3 hours ago
Looking like the B12 will accept a band-aid from the networks to keep our $ at a solid #3 ahead of ACC and PAC for remainder of contract

MH ver3 ‏@MH ver3 3h3 hours ago
Contingency plans are already being made by all schools in the B12 in case UT and OU bolt after GOR is up. Though most feel they will stay

MH ver3 ‏@MH ver3 3h3 hours ago
B12 offers both easiest path to a playoff spot and as we have all witnessed this summer, a bicameral leadership they won't enjoy elsewhere

Andy Olsen ‏@Andysbbqpit 3h3 hours ago
@MH ver3 have fun with that Round Robin and CCG

MH ver3 ‏@MH ver3 3h3 hours ago
@Andysbbqpit what's sad is if we don't expand, we will probably drop to 8 conference games.

MH ver3 ‏@MH ver3 42m42 minutes ago
So Texas has told all B12 members that they will not jump ship to another conference. They say if B12 has defections after GOR(cont)

MH ver3 ‏@MH ver3 42m42 minutes ago
(Cont) they will just backfill with some of the candidates they have already interviewed.

MH ver3 ‏@MH ver3 40m40 minutes ago
UT's logic is simple: outside of VT's couple of years and TCU sharing one, no one added to a P5 since 2004 has won a FB conf championship

MH ver3 ‏@MH ver3 41m41 minutes ago

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV 3h3 hours ago
When discussing any UT B1G rumor remember that ESPN has an option on UT rights that matches length of LHN contract.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV 3h3 hours ago
Why would ESPN allow UT to move to the B1G when Fox is the primary rights holder. ESPN has a secondary contract.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV 3h3 hours ago
Not only would such a move devalue the Big 12 it would also harm ESPN.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV 3h3 hours ago
Also note that UT is prohibited from being a part of any other network (other than LHN).

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV 3h3 hours ago
"Neither IMG nor UT will during the Term... participate or similar network enterprise (regardless of name) related to UT"

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV 3h3 hours ago
What that means is that Texas cannot participate in any conference network until the LHN deal has expired.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV 3h3 hours ago
An ESPN contact gave me the info on the LHN contract. The takeaway is that ESPN wants the Big 12 intact.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV 16m16 minutes ago
I'm about to say some controversial stuff here so buckle up.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV 5m5 minutes ago
6. Finally (and regrettably) we'll have 7 more years of rumors about UT and OU leaving the Big 12.

 

[kyleslamb]

Too bad The Dude hasn't figured out you can't really analyze legal provisions of a contract when the same contract you're viewing has several provisions redacted from public. If such an agreement had a provision redacted that simply said "all of this is null and void if Texas joins another league" how would he know? I'm so tired of the guy browbeating the Twitterati public as if he's some know it all attorney.

 

[HuskyHawk]

Having said all that about Flug and Tramel, I think I need to add something else. I don't think either one actually knows what's going to happen and if I had to bet, I'd say they're both wrong.

I'm no insider and I have no desire to deceive anybody with lies.

But I have reason to believe expansion has not actually cooled. To the people selling conjecture, it's been an up and down thing. To the people involved (who signed non-disclosure statements) it has been a steady process.

There's talk like Texas and OU's unwillingness to sign a GOR is a shift but it has been their consistent stance from day one.

I still think the conference will expand. Probably by two. Probably Cincy and Houston. I'm sorry, UConn fans. You were my favorite, but these things are just my hunch at this moment in time, based on conversations with people who know people who shouldn't be talking.

I don't know who has a source and who doesn't. But I do know that none of the Big 12 Presidents could tell you what is going to happen because they don't know. It's all up in the air. The ADs know even less, and coaches less still. Decisions have not beeen made.

[jlarson]

He is using "OU Contacts" today since his "BTM" is the oposite. He is a fraud that is playing both sides. Yesterday the article with the comments from Gee is published and today Flug makes up fake stuff "OU Contacts" so he can go back to "BTM" on the 17th saying he was right and if expansion did happen, then he can say he was right with "OU Contacts."

People who still think this guy isn't full of ____ are just clinging onto his words in the hopes of the crap he makes up ends up being what the person hopes for in life.

 

[FfldCntyFan]

Wow.

Flug is going full dude.

Information today in the 5 Schls OU was willing to discuss from their point of view does not conflict info from June to Mid Sept...

..Nor does info today on who OU was willing to push forward in B12 EXP change what OU Contacts believe will happen Oct 17.. No resolution.

To those who believe info today contradicts info from June to Mid Sept..no it doesn't. Just gives backdrop to OU's thinking..at least a bit

I still don't understand Tulane. I know a few of us went to the FB game last year. The only people knew anything about the game were at the game. The cab drivers, bartenders and locals I ran into were clueless about it. And their gym is smaller than Quinnipiac's.

Full Dood for sure.

Yep. But if one is patient, can't Tulane with its excellent academics and large national alumni base be a worthy P5 school 20 years from now? Particularly if the school outlines a real plan to upgrade facilities? In state competition is really just LSU.

That said, hard to see modern demands for instance success and $$ supporting an extended patient build up. And Tulane is private - seemingly another con in the long run view of big time college athletics.

They just built a tiny on campus stadium. They always have the Super Dome downtown.

OU Contacts
Air Force FB only
BYU FB only or Full
Tulane Full
UCONN Full
UC Full

I read this as the university presidents decided that academics are the #1 priority as out of the listed expansion candidates, only Rice and SMU are ranked at or higher than this group with USF and Colorado St around the same level as Cincinnati. If this is somehow true, which I highly doubt taking, Tulane especially would like cause an epic meltdown in Houston and Memphis. The opportunity to read their fan boards alone makes this worth it, besides, of course, UConn escaping American purgatory.
