      Probably secured by future distributions.

        That's funny. I bet some spiteful ute fan is deleting his/her own posts to keep us from reaching the magic number.

          B12 rumors like X-Files. Plenty of rumors, conspiracy theories, unknown sinister power brokers, but ultimately no closure.
          Everything in life is an approximation.

            Remember, posts from Ute fans, Wuap and Robin Finderson do not count towards the magic number.

              Correct. Only the true and living posts count towards the total. The posts that are cynical attempts to tempt the post count don't count.
              I think, perhaps, the only person who hates BYU fans more than ute fans hate BYU fans, is Bronco Mendenhall.

                Reposting your own tweets? Weak.

                  I have been telling you this is ultimately just a money problem and therefore easily solvable. 3D has been especially thick headed and stupid about this.
                  When a true genius appears, you can know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in a confederacy against him.

                      This payout may imply that the B12 is paying for UL as well. I'm sure the negotiations haven't excluded discussions regarding Louisville's ongoing membership.

                      The high number tells me that the B12 is getting a two-fer and here comes UL and BYU.

                        I'd love to believe BYU was going to the Big XII, but life as a BYU fan has taught me to not believe. My only hope is that by posting I will push this thread closer to the 12,000 threshold and help fulfill a bit of CUF prophecy.

                          they will just garnish their wages from the Big 12 payout.

                              WTF? I will kick your ass.

                                I'd rather be that tough-looking alien dude who has super-human strength and is almost impossible to kill.
