I agree. Texas should just play coy and let those bolt that want to bolt. Then replace them with some 2nd rate schools from the MWC and CUSA and punch their yearly ticket to the BCS.




Texas would lose a lot of money if they put in scrubs into the Big XII (loss of tv money). Plus if the Big XII gets watered down too much it may lose its status as a BCS conf and lose its automatic bid.

Also for teams like Texas A&M they don't want to lose their spot in the sec if they wait.

Big east hasn't lost it's status.

The way the BXII is set up, The team on t.v. the most get the lion share of the money. they wouldn't need a billion dollar t.v. contract. If they get 75% of 30 million dollar deal (per year), they make over 20 million. no conference can offer that.
