[QUOTE="Mountaineer Steve, post: 129482971, member: 1495432"] Let me rephrase what I said. I was't saying meaning Texas shouldn't open up, but saying they are Texas and they probably think they don't have to. As far as Bowslby is concerned, he is not going to come out in public in say the BIG12 is ready to expand if the votes are not there. It just makes the BIG12 look more dysfunctional (which is is) Saying there is no issues on how to handle tier 3 contracts is easy, doing it is another issue. There are huge costs involved involved in buying out all the different contracts/ These costs on top of other network startup costs will keep the BIG12 network from being profitable for many years. In addition there is an unequal amount of money being made on these rights with Texas leading the way. Will Texas be compensated more for giving up the LHN? Will WVU be commentated more than ISU, TT, TCU and others since their rights are bringing in more money per year? The easiest way to handle all of this is to plan for expansion and network to start in 2024 when everything is expiring. All of that assuming the BIG12 is not at a disadvantage for having 10 team CCG game. [/QUOTE]
