Big 12 will take a wait and see approach. No harm in waiting especially when you can't decide what to do.

[URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV'][B]Christopher Lambert[/B] ‏@theDudeofWV [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV/status/734746443249025024']5h5 hours ago[/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/Hokiesandman']@Hokiesandman[/URL] Contract details. ESPN wanting a WAAAAY long extension that means $ is less than expected & ideal. [URL='https://twitter.com/Hokiesandman'][B]T Mun[/B] ‏@Hokiesandman [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/Hokiesandman/status/734748082752131073']5h5 hours ago[/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV']@theDudeofWV[/URL] no biggie. They have been negotiating the ACCN for years. Getting down to nitty gritty. We'll know more before July 1 [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV'][B]Christopher Lambert[/B] ‏@theDudeofWV [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV/status/734750705458745344']5h5 hours ago[/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/Hokiesandman']@Hokiesandman[/URL] The date I heard was the deadline was June 30th. If the ACC hasn't accepted ESPN's terms by then a one time payment is made. [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV'][B]Christopher Lambert[/B] ‏@theDudeofWV [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV/status/734746626313584640']5h5 hours ago[/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/Hokiesandman']@Hokiesandman[/URL] Something about inflation devaluing the contract value because the length is so long.

[URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV'][B]Christopher Lambert[/B] ‏@theDudeofWV [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV/status/734761886076526593']4h4 hours ago[/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/sleepythyme']@sleepythyme[/URL] I'm not worried about it. Every move the Big 12 would make requires a network. [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV'][B]Christopher Lambert[/B] ‏@theDudeofWV [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV/status/734743288989765633']5h5 hours ago[/URL] The Big 12 will not vote on expansion in the upcoming meetings. No schools have been invited. None will be until ACC issue is resolved.

Upcoming meetings. Publicly, perhaps. But I disagree on the other 2 points.

I'm not going to argue. The Big 12 is going to wait & see what happens with ESPN-ACC. [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV'][B]Christopher Lambert[/B] ‏@theDudeofWV [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV/status/734744674116771840']5h5 hours ago[/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/80sTiger']@80sTiger[/URL] My suggestion to you is keep your head down and let this play out. Because the more you say the deeper the hole you dig. [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV'][B]Christopher Lambert[/B] ‏@theDudeofWV [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV/status/734743947029970944']5h5 hours ago[/URL] I have no idea if the ESPN-ACC impasse will be resolved but I do know the clock is ticking.

So my ACC filters not as rigorous as my others. [URL='https://twitter.com/hashtag/IWantToBelieveTheACCisDoomed?src=hash']#IWantToBelieveTheACCisDoomed[/URL]!

I made him an offer.

It doesn't invite anyone or spend that much time on expansion. [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV'][B]Christopher Lambert[/B] ‏@theDudeofWV [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV/status/734772328391933953']3h3 hours ago[/URL] He's said time and time again that UC and UCONN are locks. Previously he said UH and whoever - I forget.

If nothing happens he does the same.
