Wait for legislation that changes rules for CCG. [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV'][B]Christopher Lambert[/B] @theDudeofWV [/URL] · [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV/status/542022247305973760']4h 4 hours ago [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/Doug_McClellan']@[B]Doug_McClellan[/B][/URL] Autonomy gives the P5 the ability to set their own rules. The B12 will apply for a waiver & wait for autonomy to kick in.

They're desperate to get in. Fred Smith is rumored to shell out the cash and they'll pass on TV revenue [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV'][B]Christopher Lambert[/B] @theDudeofWV [/URL] · [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV/status/542023949643948032']4h 4 hours ago [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/_KyleJacobson']@[B]_KyleJacobson[/B][/URL] They B12 would never allow that... Still lose $2million a year just by adding 2 in that case. [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV'][B]Christopher Lambert[/B] @theDudeofWV [/URL] · [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV/status/542025033322074112']3h 3 hours ago [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/TigerFanClint']@[B]TigerFanClint[/B][/URL] As always the panic is more from fans fueled by the hopes of those damned in the AAC.

If the B12 added 2 today it would be UH & BYU.

[URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV'][B]Christopher Lambert[/B] @theDudeofWV [/URL] · [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV/status/542026364258643968']3h 3 hours ago [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/_KyleJacobson']@[B]_KyleJacobson[/B][/URL] The Big 12 does not have an escalator clause in their TV contract. So no extra money for expansion.

Not even close.
