[QUOTE="Buckaineer, post: 129584535, member: 1428007"] The conference has stated recently that if they expand with the available schools there will be increases for everyone. They just won't be as good as if there were also a network. The conference isn't expanding because UT doesn't want to and they've gotten others to buy in that they should hold out for future realignment rather than be proactive. Fan bases have had an impact and with people from outside convincing BIG 12 fans there's no one worth adding--without looking at any evidence, their voices have been heard at the top. Comprehensive means complete; including all or nearly all elements or aspects of something so if you think adding only one thing when they were in need of multiple improvements as a comprehensive improvement, when Boren stated clearly that it was necessary for all items to be addressed and implemented, then you have a comprehension problem. Boren looked at the financial bonus of a conference network and saw that there was enough revenue to make Texas whole and make lots more money for everyone else. Boren stated that adding all three would put the BIG 12 on par with the BIG 12 and SEC--I don't have to show anything, but if you get available numbers then it certainly adds up. Financially on par means that while there are going to be exact dollar for dollar amounts you will be equal or close to it--not millions behind as the conference is going to be now by the end of contracts. Texas made its declarations before anyone even sat down and went over the data-and quickly everyone bit rather than examine the data and move forward. If Ohio State, Alabama and FSU--which actually perform on the field--had the same attitude as UT, the B10, SEC and ACC would cease to exist. [/QUOTE]
