Only ND adds value to Big 12 TV contract.

Looks like Big 12 expansion could be dead unless it's ND.

The only thing I got out of it is TV execs advised the B12 on what teams to go after for expansion etc. Remember when ESPN claimed they played no part in the ACC raid of the BE? Well at least we know ESPN and ACC lied when they said ESPN played no part in the BE raid. Does anyone actually believe that?

Everything about Notre Dame being a partial member in the B-12 can be disregarded because Texas will never let that happen. And the article fails to bring up the revenue that would be generated from a championship game by adding a 12th member as well.

The article also has no basis for what schools are included as to wouldnt add value to the TV deal. FSU? Clemson? BYU? USC? Alabama? This is nothing but an article from the heart of B-12 country telling everyone how great the B-12 is.

let me guess, no acc schools were done in this study?

Texas and Oklahoma don't want to expand, and Notre Dame doesn't want the Big 12 to expand, so the three of them are putting on a performance that will stall expansion until it dies.

You think Texas and Oklahoma have to "stall" the rest of the Big XII instead of just giving them an order? Really?
