Nebraska was also tired of getting rammed by UT politically. It all started with partial qualifiers when the conference first formed.

However, I think the real reason is this: they could make more money in the Big 10. Yes, their "unequal revenue sharing" started biting them in the butt.

To wit:

Big 12 2008-09 Revenue Sharing
1. Oklahoma, $12.2 million
2. Texas, $11.8 million
3. Kansas, $11.5 million
4. Missouri, $10.4 million
5. Texas A&M, $10.2 million
6. Oklahoma State, $10.0 million
7. Colorado, $9.77 million
8. Nebraska, $9.73 million
9. Texas Tech, $9.2 million
10. Baylor, $9.1 million
11. Iowa State, $8.9 million
12. Kansas State, $8.4 million

Nebraska drops to eighth in Big 12 revenue

So wouldn't they WANT equal revenue sharing if they were 8th in league in $$$.

Why Woukd you think that was a lie? Talking out of both sides of your mouth much?


Bottom line: Texas is greedy. A bad conference member and have ruined 2 conferences.

And I'm glad they did. frick you guys, we're in the SEC. Enjoy playing 2nd fiddle to A&M
