Here's the link to the Big 12 Conference about the "deal".

Listen To Dan Beebe Teleconference - Big 12 Conference - Official Athletic Site

This TV deal better be good.

I would like to ask you Mr. Beebe, why you seemingly are in over your head when it comes to negotiating on behalf of ALL BIG 12 member universities?

As a follow up,

How in the world did you ever get to the position that you are in?

 

[Wesley]

And TT thinks they want Pac Ten as the 12th member? Cowards.

 

[BigSkyCy2]

This TV deal better be good.

Beebe just confirmed that No TV Deal is currently in place.

 

[gocubs2118]

Beebe just confirmed that No TV Deal is currently in place.

Ya, I'm not too happy about that. Where is this 17 million coming from then?

 

[HILLCYD]

Has he said what he is going to do after he is canned?

 

[Cyclonestate78]

Sounds like Texas Tech hasn't committed yet.

They can be replaced and nobody would miss them.

 

[ChrisMWilliams]

Says projection is that FOX, ABC and others are highly interested in driving the rights fees up when it is time to renegotiate the new deal.

 

[BigSkyCy2]

Uhhhhh we are under contract with ESPN/ABC until 2015? So no new tv deal until then? This is messed up.

 

[tman24]

Ya, I'm not too happy about that. Where is this 17 million coming from then?

its coming just has to wait until 2015.

The people in Lubbock hate their AD, and they make it well known they hate him.

That sounds like no big deal...........

Yes, but FOX is up in 2012.

 

[A-town Cy]

Yes, but FOX is up in 2012.

During the Texas conference they said the FOX contract has a 4 year option to extend until 2016 and that's what they plan to do, so in 2016 we'll probably be going through this again unless they're large punishments for leaving the Big 12. We have to get our **** together in the next few years.
