Sounds like he has hurt feelings for being asleep at the wheel. I guess he should have gotten out of his office more often and spent some time jilting some AAC teams again -- like last time. He is a good one to talk about leading on and deception.
Big 12 sends ESPN a cease and desist letter
- Thread starter RollTide_HTTR
- Start date
Are we sure the letter wasn’t referring to Texas? It was known that OU wanted out for awhile, but convincing Texas to leave with them may have been encouraged by ESPN with their Longhorn network. It was always strange that the BIG12 was a Fox media rights property while the Longhorn was ESPN!
Reading through all this, I think the B12 thinks ESPN is trying to poach everyone! Maybe we should change the name of the conference from SEC to ESPN!
No it’s not going to stop Texas and Oklahoma.
This is the rat fighting back as the boa strangles the life out of it. The rat is already dead and doesn’t know it yet.
This is purely about money....the Big 12 is trying to squeeze all the money from ESPN it can...before the well runs dry for them.
They could add any or all of those teams and they'll eventually fold - no on gives a crap about any of them compared to OU and UT.
This is the sad truth, for them.
Big 12 raids AAC, AAC raids Big 12, I don’t care.
Is it legal? At hand is the fact that espn is trying to build a televised monopoly on college football. Can they? Fox is the only other big non espn/ABC/disney college football distributor. I know CBS has a few games, but not nearly as many as those two stations networks (and I doubt ABC/espn as one since owned by Disney.
It was the Rat pulling the strings this whole time.
Mr. Bowlsby, How many times must your conference be poached before it dawns on you that you ought not sleep while at the helm? I'll guarantee you AAC and CUSA are aware that they are always replacement targets in restructuring.
The most amusing thing to me is Bowlsby not realizing when he took the job that Texas had already had a big hand in (not exclusively the first time) wrecking two other marriages. But yeah, she'll be faithful to Numero Tres, right?
The SEC, by contrast, no doubt will lock in a rather nasty prenup.

So, basically the Big 12 is held together right now by the promise of getting Texas and Oklahoma's money for the next few years.
