Big 12 rules take precedent over anything in the LHN contract.  It is stated in the first part of the contract.  The Big 12 could vote to assign all 3rd tier rights to the conference and UT would either have to go along or leave the conference.  There is an out clause for ESPN that says the contract can be terminated if conference rules prevent UT from providing a "material" amount of content to the network.  It would be real interesting to see what UT would do if the conference did that.  I think there is almost zero chance of that happening but would be fun to see.

That clears that up, thanks.

Shut the eff up about big east schools.  None of them would be worth adding to the conference.

Still want A&M back.  Just imagine the hatred.  Games would be amazing.  

Hope MU does the same and also stays.  

A conf where everyone hates each other would be the best confy to be in.  

Yes.  A conference where everyone hates each other but is committed to remaining together to ensure that hate burns for decades.  

Could you imagine explaining the source of the hate to your kids someday?  :love:

It would be like "How I Met Your Mother".

More battery throwing, more in game head kicks, more defacing of respected landmarks, etc.  In game excitement, off game story lines, bad blood in all directions.   :love: :love: :love:

My god... if that wouldn't be the absolute best entertainment in the sporting world, what would be?

Just imagine the hate threads

A football program that attracted 50,500 fans per game last season, a basketball program consistently among the top five nationally in attendance, a brand new 22,000-seat arena that is the finest basketball facility in the country and the most profitable basketball in the nation, plus highly competitive and well attended non-revenue sports. ESPN sure seemed to like U of L football on Thursday nights a few years ago. Doesn't seem that bad.  :ck:

West Virginia and Louisville get you into new TV markets and bring in more viewers to B12 events. Solid programs, expanded footprint, and adding members that are already BCS schools rather than bull crap Texas schools

The problem is no one outside of Louisville cares about them.

This.   BYU is the only team that might come that would be worth adding.
