Big 12


The Big 12's number are inflated as a result of being paid for 12 schools but only having to distribute it to 10. That arrangement, money-wise, is pretty sweet (especially when you factor in tier three deals schools like OU and texas have with Fox and ESPN). However, it is also the last good contract this conference will see. Even in the (extremely) unlikely event the Big 12 opts to stick together, nobody is going to give us an arrangement like that again. We are getting paid well, but we are also on borrowed time. My hope is that some of the smaller schools in th Big 12 with less than certain P4 futures are squirreling away some of that money in the event they suddenly find themselves in the G5 ... except for Baylor. Screw Baylor.
