re: What Would Be Your Reaction When ESPN offers Bama $400 Million for Third Tier ?

I am a realist, I dont think Mizzou, or even aTm, would have been considered for expansion in the SEC if it were not for the future conference network.

Everything I have read leads me to believe this expansion has been fueled by the establishment of a conference network. The leaked financial report that came out of Columbia MO in regards to an SEC move most definitely included a conference network in its estimates for future revenue for Mizzou.

I would bet top dollar that backroom channeled discussions are already taking place for that network with broadcasters and that it will heat up moving into next year with a network launch in '13-'14 season.

Making all of our Institutions a shite load of $$$$$$$$!
