*****The Super, Mega, Huge Big 12 Expansion Thread*****

Well played.

So, does the person who posts the first youtube video of burning ejaculate get like the rep of the century or what?

...don't know about that but the upside of all of this "jar burning" is that it hopefully leads to the eventual extinction of the A&M species...

who cares if they leave, they can't get over getting beat by Texas most years so just leave and get it over with all the drama

If it's more than two minutes old, it's probably already been posted.

Considering its Oklahoma flying that plane, if (and thats a big if) it were flying to UH, presumably that would mean OU was ok with the idea. If OU is ok with the idea, the conference stays together. Texas is happy where it is.

Right.

As incompetent as Beebe appears right now, he won't contact any school without OU and Texas approving. More importantly OU, because Texas straight up doesn't ******* care.

OU plane:

FlightAware > OUA36

It's headed to Houston


*NOTE: This plane can be used for OU Flight School too so it may be nothing.

This plane needs to be shot down to save the conference!! :radar:

Maybe it had alcohol in it, so he had to start his own thread?

So, we've found out a couple of things, including that the SEC can't necessarily renegotiate their TV deals to make this financially beneficial, as well as the fact that A&M has had financial issues within the AD in the past.

The official acknowledged that because of the length and structure of the SEC’s current television contract, adding Texas A&M and a 14th member would not be financially beneficial from a rights standpoint.

Texas A&M and Team No. 14 are expected to receive a pro rata share equal to what the SEC’s 12 current universities are making: an average of about $18 million in league payouts. (Individual universities can make more money from their separate television deals.)

The SEC deal, which ends in 2025, has a few windows when it can be renegotiated but no one from the SEC or the networks expects any radical change.

So the notion that Texas A&M will see a significant financial gain by going to the SEC is not true. While the SEC offers more long-term security, the Big 12 could end up with a television deal in four years that surpasses the annual payout of the SEC, according to Joel Lulla, a New York-based lawyer who is the Big 12’s television consultant. Starting next season, A&M is guaranteed $20 million of total revenue from the Big 12. Once the Big 12 negotiates its deal that expires in four years, Texas A&M would be poised to make more money. Texas A&M also has to deal with a potentially significant buyout that will be in the neighborhood of $15 million.

“Economically, unless the SEC opens their TV deals to the extent where they make more than a pro rata increase, it makes no sense at all,” Lulla said.

I wonder if that rumor of some donor giving the TAMU A.D. millions for Kyle Field in exchange for a move to the SEC has a kernel of truth to it, or else some accountant in College Station might be wondering what the deal is.

Oh man if I was in flight school I'd be planning a flight to the Notre Dame Headquarters just to mess with everyone.

We'll hit 5,000 before noon...merging that other thread would help :wink:

I'm playing poker with some guys over lunch - we do it every day.

Actually they should fly to North Dakota or somewhere. People would have a meltdown if they thought ND or ND State was our big get.

Where is JP today? Somebody email him and ask what is going on. Tammy is still waffling between conferences.
