I agree with about 1/2. The B12
wanted a conference network when Nebraska, A&M, Mizzou, and Colorado were in the conference. Texas didn't want to share, and we all know the history.
Also, the NCAA, or other conferences of FBS and Division 1 basketball if you will, have more leverage that you think on the "P2" IMO. The P2 may have gotten ahead of themselves trying to monopolize the football money, whether they deserve it or not. The rest of college athletics - you know, the non football part, and the non rev part, still have a say in all of this.
