Tier 1 content, by definition, is the first-choice content broadcasted by the regular networks (Fox & ESPN). Fox and ESPN hold both the Tier 1 & 2 rights for the Big 12. The only available content for a B12N would be Tier 3.That could change somewhat if the Big 12 created a network with either ESPN or Fox (like the Big Ten and SEC have done). However, you have some problems there that since Tier 2 content is split between the two, so only half of that content would be available. That means you would only have 1/2 of Tier 2, so you would need Tier 3 to fill in the gaps.The other problem is that there isn't going to be enough interest in a network if it doesn't include the big guns (i.e Texas and Oklahoma).</blockquote>
