Here's my issue with any rumors of ANY ACC schools going to the BigXII
Maroon Baboon • 07/18/24 03:10 PM ET
it's selling equity, not really borrowing, normally
MrBayAreaHokie • 07/19/24 01:52 PM ET
I'd imagine it would have to be structured

What if a large portion of PE in the B12 was used to start a B12
Big12 guy • 07/20/24 09:45 AM ET
I think establishing a Big 12 network is going to be a must.

i do not disagree with you, but it does create a possible exit strategy
Big12 guy • 07/20/24 01:37 PM ET
I’m not sure exactly what’s going on but chatter has been escalating
PFHokie • 07/19/24 09:35 AM ET
Standing pat won’t be an option if ESPN doesn’t extend the media rights

My issue is that it’s a RUMOR, sports media talking heads, shut up until…

ACC does not need to throw more money at Clem & F$U.
Atlee Hokie • 07/20/24 01:14 PM ET
Throwing more money......
2hhoop3 • 07/20/24 01:19 PM ET
"throw more money to fsu and clem. ?? Whose money?

I think some are missing something here. If the ACC loses FSU/CU,

Big12 guy • 07/19/24 11:23 PM ET
I don't see it that way at all

The thing is, I don't think that the B12 is better than the ACC minus

You are still missing the point I am trying to make

What has FSU done other than last year?

Exactly. ◄
VPI 1924 • 07/19/24 03:21 PM ET
They won it all in 2014. I don't remember reading how far back

Premier basketball league? ACC, Big East, and SEC says 'hold my beer'.**

Well - I would say by any metric, the BigXII has been a better league than

I have a hard time understanding why ESPN would not continue the contract

I Think Numbers Have Been Crunched By Accountants

Maybe ESPN (or Disney or now the NFL) is looking at it simply as which
VTHokie2000 • 07/19/24 12:40 PM ET
I think ESPN has a deadline of Feb. 2025 to opt in to the 2027-36 years.
hokieZ71 • 07/18/24 05:22 PM ET
Jim Phillips Created That February, 2025, Deadline For ESPN to Re-Sign

Texas and OU announced June 2021 they were joining the SEC in July 2024
hokieZ71 • 07/18/24 06:23 PM ET
If I remember correctly
dayooper • 07/18/24 09:02 PM ET
yes, 2025 originally. ESPN kicked in $100M (savings from LHN) to move it
daveinop • 07/19/24 07:48 AM ET
It Was Brett Yormark Becoming Big-12 Commissioner on August 1, 2022

True. And ESPN rewarded the Big XII with a contract for allowing it.**
hokieZ71 • 07/18/24 09:09 PM ET
I believe they also had to pay $100M or so for 1 year early exit.**

It's a HUGE gamble.
CoolJCPA • 07/18/24 03:27 PM ET
So there isn’t much equity to begin with?
Hokie1992 • 07/19/24 08:23 AM ET
Eliminates future big boom for the teams in the league. Big risk.
