Like I said sport......

reading comprehension is your friend. I direct you to the post that started this discussion where the poster made the statement he didn't see anyone looking to join the Big 12 at a huge discount. You responded Arizona, Arizona State and Utah. Unless you can show where they joined for a discount as opposed to full share they don't qualify. Moreover, saying they had talks and didn't want it does not rule out the possibility they didn't want it at the discount offered. I realize you're new here but, that doesn't mean you are not expected to read and at least relevantly respond.

Mag 7+1 vote to disband and start a new league with better TV deal. Yes/No?
132863Hokie • 08/21/23 02:18 PM ET
Not sure, but a year earlier would have been a much better time.**
IB4TECH • 08/21/23 05:33 PM ET
terrible idea**
VT Pez4Life • 08/21/23 03:59 PM ET
ACC isn't that bad. It's materially better than the big12
SpeakToDamien • 08/21/23 03:30 PM ET
Is it, though? On all tangible metrics the answer is no.**
xx97 • 08/21/23 05:00 PM ET
Yes by far...
jesuisvtguy • 08/21/23 05:07 PM ET
The only problem with that us 7 of those teams are unhappy, and
Big12 guy • 08/21/23 05:21 PM ET
That is an absolutely untrue statement
Vienna_Hokie • 08/21/23 06:03 PM ET
Is this all about FSU's budget? The ACC is a very good home! **
GodfatherHokie • 08/21/23 09:24 PM ET
it's about several schools budgets who believe they could be getting more
Vienna_Hokie • 08/21/23 09:29 PM ET
You are splitting hairs, but OK. There are 7 teams unhappy. **
Big12 guy • 08/21/23 07:38 PM ET
No, it's facts vs click bait, not splitting hairs.
Vienna_Hokie • 08/21/23 07:49 PM ET
FSU publically looks pretty unhappy to me (official statements), and six
Big12 guy • 08/21/23 08:39 PM ET
Never said it was a nothing burger, so, they are unhappy
Vienna_Hokie • 08/21/23 08:51 PM ET
regardless, it destabilizes the conference, and the non mag 7 universities
Big12 guy • 08/21/23 09:55 PM ET
it only destabilizes it if the GOR can be broken
Vienna_Hokie • 08/21/23 09:59 PM ET
Not by tangible metrics
xx97 • 08/21/23 05:15 PM ET
Completely incorrect**
SpeakToDamien • 08/21/23 06:16 PM ET
Feel free to show me tangible data.**
xx97 • 08/21/23 07:00 PM ET
Acc revenue on a bad old deal is 33% higher per school than the big 12's**
SpeakToDamien • 08/21/23 07:29 PM ET
Incorrect
xx97 • 08/21/23 09:28 PM ET
Huh? Remind me what school chose the B12 over the ACC?
jesuisvtguy • 08/21/23 05:33 PM ET
Arizona, Arizona State, and Utah**
xx97 • 08/21/23 06:59 PM ET
Reading is important.....
2hhoop3 • 08/21/23 09:01 PM ET
The ACC had talks with those schools. Those schools didn't want it.**
xx97 • 08/21/23 09:29 PM ET
Maybe......
2hhoop3 • 08/21/23 09:41 PM ET
Who said anything about a "discount"? You just made that up.**
xx97 • 08/21/23 09:45 PM ET
Like I said sport...... ◄
2hhoop3 • 08/21/23 09:54 PM ET
The B12 doesn't want these schools
xx97 • 08/21/23 10:04 PM ET
The Big 12.....
2hhoop3 • 08/21/23 10:13 PM ET
Stanford would come running if the B12 offered.
xx97 • 08/21/23 10:16 PM ET
What do you base......
2hhoop3 • 08/21/23 10:29 PM ET
Who says they didn't? Offering a hot girl $500 doesn't mean she's going
xx97 • 08/21/23 10:34 PM ET
They are not.....
2hhoop3 • 08/21/23 10:42 PM ET
WTH?
xx97 • 08/21/23 10:49 PM ET
While temporary.....
2hhoop3 • 08/21/23 11:00 PM ET
Once again, I'll ask you. Why is no one else adding Stanford?
xx97 • 08/22/23 01:34 AM ET
Answer any ....
2hhoop3 • 08/22/23 02:22 AM ET
Then feel free to answer
xx97 • 08/22/23 01:08 PM ET
Still can't read......
2hhoop3 • 08/22/23 01:11 PM ET
Tapping out now?
xx97 • 08/22/23 02:02 PM ET
none of whom were invited to join the ACC, it wasn't a choice
Vienna_Hokie • 08/21/23 07:04 PM ET
Already reported the ACC wanted a 7 team western wing
xx97 • 08/21/23 09:30 PM ET
post a link to that, have never seen anything even close to that reported**
Vienna_Hokie • 08/21/23 09:35 PM ET
Here you go
xx97 • 08/21/23 09:44 PM ET
essentially confirmed or confirmed?
Vienna_Hokie • 08/21/23 09:52 PM ET
He talked about them. He was very negative on the idea.
xx97 • 08/21/23 10:02 PM ET
well, that proves it then, a tweet from a twit and your eloquent summary
Vienna_Hokie • 08/21/23 10:08 PM ET
Lol**
xx97 • 08/21/23 10:14 PM ET
Who are the invites from both?**
IB4TECH • 08/21/23 05:31 PM ET
See above**
xx97 • 08/21/23 07:01 PM ET
Then you're misinformed.**
IB4TECH • 08/21/23 08:47 PM ET
Tell that to the school Presidents**
xx97 • 08/21/23 09:31 PM ET
They are not concerned about you.**
IB4TECH • 08/21/23 09:47 PM ET
They are concerned about money, though
xx97 • 08/21/23 10:03 PM ET
This is the answer. The only reason that the B12 is even being discussed
Big12 guy • 08/21/23 03:43 PM ET
Again, someone has to acting as a go between in such a scenario
Marooned • 08/21/23 02:42 PM ET
No. It could end up being a lot worse.**
reestuart • 08/21/23 02:31 PM ET
IF..
MrFantastic! • 08/21/23 02:24 PM ET
Now take those 8
