Here's a question. How big of a role- really- do you guys think ESPN (with the creation of the Longhorn Network) played in the demise of the Big XII?

I mean, was it already on the way out, and they just delivered the Coup De Grace? Or did that move more or less doom the conference? Surely this had to play a bigger role that the departure of Nebraska, right?

UT is the sole reason why the big 12 is going down the shitter. Their selfish BS single handedly took the second best conference in college football and tore it apart at the seams. ESPN's involvement was inevitable. If it wasnt them, it would have been CBS or FOX Sports. UT wanted their own TV network and they would have found someone to make it happen.
