The B10 could've had Utah a year ago if they had any interest in them.  They weren't strategically waiting until there was a buyout to deal with.

Being the poached is making another appearance:

Didn't they only give Washington and Oregon partial shares of revenue. And don't we have a huge ass buyout? How does that make sense?

The big 10 wants the 8 people that follow TCU sports.

The big 10 wants the 8 people that follow TCU sports.

It defies logic. Tiny alumni base. Middling academics. I live in the Metroplex and never think about them. I call malarkey!

[pissclams]

at this point, i don’t see anything stopping TCU from joining the Big 10.  i’d consider it a lock.

Some rumblings Yormark is pushing them out to make room for UConn and Gonzaga

[catastrophe]

I will say TCU probably has more value to the Big 10 than they do to the Big 12, but between the fact that they are still TCU, and the Big 10 easily could have poached Utah sooner, that report makes zero sense unless those schools were willing to receive bargain basement shares for a long time.

Is this going to be a situation like where we bullied ku into removing their track? Taking Tcu off our hands would be so lol
