Message: [QUOTE="Seaa Blue, post: 2202324, member: 4774"] BTM: From B10 perspective this aggressive pitch from SEC will endanger B10 hopes of landing Oklahoma in 2022. BTM: B10 100% believes SEC, not wanting B10 at the border of Texas, will make an aggressive pitch for OU/OSU. BTM: Oklahoma has knowledge, a perception Kansas is B10 bound regardless of their own future position in Realignment. BTM: B10 targeting Kansas is completely independent of what decision Oklahoma makes in 2022. BTM: Kansas matches current profile SEC is looking for, SEC recognizes Kansas value, but Kansas 1st choice is B10 BTM: From B10 perspective SEC will not make serious play for Kansas. BTM: From B10 perspective SEC wants to move West in their next expansion just they did with Missouri and TAMU. BTM: From B10 perspective PAC is not much of a threat to obtain Oklahoma. BTM: From B10 perspective SEC will make a huge play for OU. PAC will make their interest known once again. BTM: Boren knows. He knows OU own T3 ends 2022. He also knows B10 new Media deal up in 2022. BTM: Schools in B12 will need resolution long before June 30th, 2025, the day the current B12 GOR officially dies. BTM: I brought up to you 8 or 9 months ago the importance of 2021/22 in settling the future and the reasons why. BTM:All of Boren's public comments in last few days are consistent with everything OU Contacts have said & we informed you since March 2015. BTM: Oklahoma and Kansas want out of B12. They want to attach their future to different associations. BTM: B12 is not working on these issues. They threw their towel in unofficially around Sept 22nd, 2016. Officially Oct 17th, 2016. BTM: PAC are working through a minefield of issues in attempting to improve their exposure. BTM: You Greg,have always heard me talk about importance for the Presidents wanting to gain opportunities & exposure for their Universities. BTM: People get caught up in Conference Payouts. These numbers are important, very important. But they are just one factor in many. BTM: But at end of day these PAC schools have no interest in changing their associations. BTM: PAC wants to improve themselves, their value, their 3T distribution model, possibly. BTM: For example: USC, UCLA and Stanford don't want out of PAC. They do not want to change their associations. BTM: We will get into the reasons next but let's get this out of the way. OU & KU want out, and they will get out. BTM: The reason B12 will lose schools in 2022 is because a couple of schools want to change their associations. BTM: Texas Football winning the National Championship in 2005 did not stop other B12 schools from leaving years after. BTM: B12 will not heal they self by having Oklahoma win the National Championship in Football in 2017 or 2018. BTM: B12 issues can't be solved by changing the outside perception of the Conference. Dinner is finished. [/QUOTE]
