Message: [QUOTE="CoastAtlantic, post: 3134782, member: 5174"] And, just like that, the Flug jumps right back on the UH bandwagon...:rolleyes: [USER=386000905]Christopher Lambert‏ @theDudeofWV[/USER] [URL='https://twitter.com/theDudeofWV/status/1120409724187549702']5h5 hours ago[/URL] ESPN offered to take Pac12N off the hands of the Pac 12 in return for a long-term deal to 2035. The Pac 12 refused. ESPN will offer the Big 12 a long-term "Security" deal too. The question is how much and will the Big 12 bite before 2024?

OU & UT will not do anything long term...will not close any exit ramps off HWY Big 12 until decision time. Which isn’t now.

All those scenarios during last possible Big 12 Expansion all came down to Texas/ESPN giving nod of approval. Came down to horse trading votes if Texas/ESPN ever gave thumbs up. Thumbs up never happened. But UH will get beyond being under a thumb.

According to BTM there is great optimism in City of Houston for their University. We will discuss why on May 25th. [/QUOTE]
