David,
I know I am an insignificant KU fan, but I just wanted to e-mail you in an attempt to get you to save
the Big 12.
The Big 12 is one of the top 2 or 3 conferences in the country and with OU and Texas will always be
that, throw KU
in there for BB. Come on you have to admit A&M isn't that big of a loss, what have they really brought
to the conference
over the years, except for whining about them being equal to OU and Texas when in reality KU is
ahead of them when it comes
to total revenue. Please take into consideration the travel, starting times of games for TV and
numerous other things that will
effect the fans and student athletes. The Longhorn network is a joke, no one even carries it, you are
OU and are very powerful.
Please get this done. Thanks for your time.
Thank you,
Jeff Smith
