That would be effing fantastic for the whole conference (not just UT).

Note, they did talk about a "sister network" to the LHN in Big12 meetings. This network would be for schools who want to sell their Tier 3 rights.

I would prefer that the LHN be scrapped and a full Big12 Network start up though. We could use the LHN framework if they wanted to.


I agree 100%, this would be the best thing for the conference as a whole and for the schools. Exposure, exposure and exposure. I forgot, more cash too.

I like keeping the individual networks until the Notre Dame ship has sailed. I realize it is incredibly unlikely that they will join the Big 12, but the ability to have their own network would be the thing that sets us apart from the Big 10. And with their ego, it just might be enough to tempt them....

Since I am no longer required to forward a portion of my monthly income to her, it is quite possible...
Actually, she just changed a couple of letters in her first name and married Bob Bowlsby. A step down IMHO.

Bob Bowlsby looks like the kind of guy who unfolds paper napkins onto his lap before he eats anything.

If Bob Bowlsby's such a smart guy, why is he taking the Big 12 job? #selfhatingcommissioner

Texas A&M just found out about Bowlsby and threatened to leave the Big 12 again.

I don't understand why the Big 12 would hire someone so obviously in the BCS's front pocket. HIS NAME IS BOWLSBY.

It's more commonly called "the continuing existence of Texas," but yes RT @muwxman: @DanBeebe, you left a curse on your old position right?

I can't wait for the first time a Texas Tech booster tells Bob Bowlsby to "cut it out with the Stanford book-learnin" and then spits on him.

On the surface you gotta hate a UofI AD leading our conference. But if you look at it, this guy is an Iowa guy, state of Iowa first. He has done really good things in his career. And you know he's not afraid to push the limits. If you want a Big XII guy that is conservative I hear Beebe is still looking.

Time will tell, but I think this will be good for ISU.
