*****The Super, Mega, Huge Big 12 Expansion Thread*****

Nobody in this stinking conference is our friend.

I HOPE we can trust the rest of the Faithful (much better term than forgooten) Five.

Eh, i dont really trust any of them.

They are in the same position we are. And believe it, they will take whatever avenue they can to get out of this situation with or without ISU and will never look back.

More than the others, but that still isn't very much. They might be less likely to play games like A&M or Oklahoma, but they'd leave for anotehr BCS conference if they got the chance (though to be honest, we would do the same)

 

[alarson]

All I am gonna say is we better not have to cough up cash to keep these d bags in the conference. I am soo ******* sick and tired of ISU getting the shaft!!!

No kidding. What kind of 'friend' makes the rest of the conference bribe them to keep them there? If its gone from 'make things more equal' to 'lets make us 2 equally unequal' youre just doubling down on the texas problem.

You should have gone to Oklahoma Joes. Everyone (and by everyone, I mean the Big 12 AD's and President) know it is the best BBQ in KC.

uhm, arthur bryants. ok Joes is in a better part of town. that is all.

Let me get this straight. OU is bribing the rest of the conference to get the same money as Texas? Is that right? So, everyone one else goes to equal revenue sharing and we go to more unequal. WTF? How long will next years thread be when OU leaves?

 

[bosco]

i think you'll see boren is our best friend

You've mentioned this before. Is OU out for our best interest too or by looking for their own self preservation ISU will benefit indirectly?

 

[ripvdub]

Why didnt these genius' put in some kind of death penalty tax for leaving last year after agreeing to stay together? 100 mil. sounds fair to me.

 

[isuno1fan]

Supposedly Texas offered OU some of the LHN money over the weekend when they flew up there. I would suspect any extra money for OU is solely coming from Texas.

 

[Bret44]

Eh, i dont really trust any of them.

Ok, I edited it to say I HOPE we can trust them... Since they don't want to lose this cash cow like we don't want to. If we cannot stick together then we are all left peeing in the wind.

 

[scyclonekid]

better be coming from Texas and we better have equal revenue sharing or this conference will blow up sooner than later.

you love people to think you actually know things, don't you? anyone can play games like that.

So, the way I read this meeting is that OU and Texas will have the equal share of the pie, while everyone else has crumbs? I would rather walk to the Big East then stay in this craphole of a conference if true.

not true......

 

[scyclonekid]

Well this whole realignment crap should not keep dragging on.

 

[CyBer]

Can someone summarize this "meeting" or give me a link?
