And we still don't know that won't be the case if tested.
 
 
The premise with the Grant of Rights is that legally, they will have to be compensated for their rights, which makes it worth another conference to take them. If Texas is banking on this, and the Big 12 stops payment after they were to leave, then they could litigate for a breach of contract and potentially be awarded damages as well as invalidating the duration of the agreement. There's never been a case that I've ever seen where someone legally was withheld compensation for a Grant of Rights. There is an overwhelming amount of evidence that a Grant of Rights is utterly enforceable, but it would have to continue with consideration going to all parties for the life of the agreement.
 
If that's what Texas is banking on, they're probably in good shape. It was never really getting "out" of the Grant of Rights as much as it was daring the Big 12 not to continue compensating for the rights if they left, and the Big 12 daring the schools to leave without promise of compensation.
