No clue. Been slammed, so just trying to keep up with all of this on here as a fan as it pertains to recruiting and team right now.
Just the headline on here at some point, so not sure what all is said in there. If they're saying something similar to what I relayed, who knows? I'm sure they've begun working on applying as much pressure in as many ways as they can to force the dissolution of the Big 12 or a happy settlement for both programs to leave soon. I'm sure the Big 12 is dicklessly posturing, meanwhile every program is attempting to sort out its options, the least attractive of which is undoubtedly keeping the Big 12 intact in some sort of absurd stalemate for months on end.
Think about the choices, actually:
1) Do nothing. Wait to get paid by OU and Texas, then negotiate with media, collect dollars, dissipate into nothingness as other things get firmed up. (This seems the most on-brand for the Tagalong 8 and Bowlsby, yet also the worst choice.)
2) Add new partners to the Big 12, such as UCF, UH, USF, Cincy, BYU. (This could actually make some sense, so they'll avoid this at all costs.)
3) Every man for himself, run for your lives:
-Kansas turns to the AAC and focuses on building a basketball conference since the Big 10 seems indifferent;
-Tech and TCU go west if they can, which is starting to get leaked by both of their camps, yet not from the Pac 12;
-WVU begs the ACC to consider them and then joins the Big East or AAC quickly (I think they bail first, and I mean soon);
-OSU should be offering to fuck, cuck, and/or suck whoever will pick up the phone out west or north;
-Baylor goes AAC and convinces themselves that they meant to do that;
-ISU needs to find some sort of unscrupulous move that unlocks the ability for them to blackmail their way into the Big 10, such as luring the Big 10 West division to a party in Ames, plying all attending presidents with roofies, and then photographing all of them getting pegged by NowThis' wife and KarenKeyLargo;
-KSU should just admit that they're functional retards who haven't even been trying for almost the entirety of the last two decades and their body is ready to join the Big Sky Conference. (I assume some of these moves will eventually get attempted.)
4) Find a way to syndicate a group of themselves into a merger with someone like the AAC and then act like they're still a P5 conference. (This would take vision and strategy, so we should assume there's a .001% chance of this happening, merely because we can actually summon the notion out of the ether.)
If they sit around and fuck with Texas and OU, the lawyers will be leaning heavily on things like vetoing new team choices, sovereign immunity, and who knows what else.
