They say everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face.  We may have reached that point.

UT had its little plan for domination and  new Houston campus, OU and the non-Texas school had a plan to dilute UT's influence, some enterprising, university staffer thought he could extort another $80 from it's media partners.

Well, now daddy is home.  ESPN isn't going to be too wild about paying $20M a year each for UCONN and UC when the already own those 2 plus 10 others for 10 cents on the dollar.  Fox isn't going to pony up the extra money only to see the league break apart in 6 years.

Neither is going to pay them B1G or SEC money.  UT doesn't want to extend a GOR.

Whatever we think we know could have just gone down the tubes.  That could be good or bad depending where you think you were previously.

The truly important people will get in a room and decided this.  That decision may look nothing like what informed people knew at the time they knew it.

The question is now, what does TV want and can the B12 deliver it.  Otherwise, the B12 will grab the available cash and implode.
