        Fox sports feeds the children in the Big 12 currently... but yeah, dumb.

            B12 is hosed. The only thing the cease and desist could mean is that ESPN is actively trying to blow up the B12 to get out of their huge contract remaining for the next 3 years.

            Gonna get ugly and BYU will be screwed as per usual

              The cease and desist to ESPN is a terrible idea but it's not like the left-overs in the Big12 are thinking rationally. It's a desperate act from desperate people who are just starting to realize the gravy train is going to end.

                  Which 3-5 teams? I am guessing Baylor, Kansas St, Oki St, TT, and maybe TCU.

                  KU and ISU want the B1G. WVU wants the ACC.

                  PAC 12...

                    Yeah, it makes sense that ESPN is actively trying to blow up the Big 12. This takes inventory from Fox Sports and also makes it OU and Texas can jump into the SEC for the 2022 season without having to pay and/or wait until 2025 (for the GOR to expire). Leave it to ESPN to devalue its own properties and try to usher them into conferences they wholly own.

                            Aggies are on board with OU/UT addition to SEC. I told you they would fall in line. This will be a unanimous vote tomorrow.

                                yeah, it was like, “Fall in line, aggie, or we are sending you back where you came from.”
