it's possible that it strengthens their position, especially if Apple or

Amazon are the ones unwilling to pony up the money. Are they threatening to leave to weaken the PAC's negotiations? I see it from the other side of the coin. It could very well be a negotiation strategy.

Certainly feels that way**

Do all Big12 members get a tin foil hat when they join?**

Oklahoma State Alumnus. So sure.**

Big 12 replaced Texas and Oklahoma...

You know Nebraska is just chomping at the bit to move to the B12.
EDGEMAN • 06/06/23 06:29 AM ET
Yeah, I'm sure Nebraska is trying to get out of the big 10 while everybody

They make good money as an afterthought where there are now.

Exactly all these sites are big 12 guys
Mercury • 06/05/23 05:56 PM ET
I don’t believe that there is a satisfactory linear TV deal to be had at
WBGV • 06/05/23 02:23 PM ET
The PAC12 can get a deal tomorrow at American Athletic Conference rates.**
HOO86 • 06/05/23 11:20 PM ET
How much of that money is Texas/Oklahoma exit fee? How much of that money

Deion and the portal - 79 of 85 scholarship players transfer out - brutal.

Not surprisingly, the Big 12 is handling comms and PR much better than the
RoswellGAHokie • 06/05/23 02:08 PM ET
How is any of that “handling it much better”?
marcbvtgm • 06/06/23 10:49 AM ET
PAC12 AD's and Presidents have been consistently denying the rumors

Big 12 PR

You just have to consider.....

If you are into carnival barkers then the Big 12 is gonna be your jam
Vippie1 • 06/05/23 05:04 PM ET
No ACC school would leave for the big 12
SpeakToDamien • 06/05/23 03:10 PM ET
Pitt would. **
Big12 guy • 06/05/23 06:01 PM ET
You’re confusing “most likely ACC school to end up in Big XII”

"Nothing becomes official until the #Pac12 gets their TV deal finalized,"
Stech • 06/05/23 11:57 AM ET
The PAC cannot make a contract until their membership stabilizes.
33laszlo99 • 06/05/23 03:44 PM ET
They are in trouble, they were in trouble years ago because Larry Scott ran
Stech • 06/05/23 04:11 PM ET
I've been hearing the Pac12 deal is $20M per school
Millpoint • 06/05/23 02:32 PM ET
ESPN is offering $120 million per year for the Saturday 10 pm games.
HOO86 • 06/05/23 11:31 PM ET
Yeas, but the news really cripples P12 negotiation power for a good deal. **
Maroon Effect • 06/05/23 12:38 PM ET
Someone is poisoning the well
obguthr • 06/05/23 03:50 PM ET
exactly. Every one of these rumors weakens the P12 position
HokieAl • 06/05/23 12:59 PM ET
it's possible that it strengthens their position, especially if Apple or ◄
Big12 guy • 06/05/23 01:04 PM ET
but no GOR for PAC. That increases risk for media partners
HokieAl • 06/05/23 01:21 PM ET
Tough spot may be too generous
obguthr • 06/05/23 03:59 PM ET
UW and UO might as well sign a short term Pac-12 GOR at the point.
Maroon Baboon • 06/06/23 01:35 PM ET
It is. But it's GOR or bust no matter where the money lands. **
Big12 guy • 06/05/23 01:37 PM ET
I agree with this, and as we dont know what is being discussed
Big12 guy • 06/05/23 12:05 PM ET
Pac teams won't leave for the Big 12 until they see the new media contract.
tarheelblue • 06/05/23 11:18 AM ET
Hope George K. is able to show this deal by July 1, 2024**

Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner......
2hhoop3 • 06/05/23 01:50 PM ET
Both leagues are down graded.
HOO86 • 06/06/23 12:11 AM ET
West Virginia / Cincinnati
HouClone • 06/06/23 08:43 AM ET
Proximity more than anything else, along with existing Rivals
HOO86 • 06/06/23 10:53 PM ET
They have been mentioned......
2hhoop3 • 06/06/23 10:34 AM ET
West Virginia has no interest in joining the ACC
Millpoint • 06/06/23 03:27 PM ET
The Best Teams in the Big XII have already made plans to leave.
HOO86 • 06/07/23 01:06 AM ET
It's all a moot point anyway
Millpoint • 06/07/23 03:33 PM ET
Unless you are......
2hhoop3 • 06/06/23 03:38 PM ET
Why would anybody enter into a contract with the Pac 12, given this news?**
