re: Rumors of the Big Ten courting Oklahoma and Texas

quote:

---

OU and Texas are essentially unopposed media conglomerates right now. moving to the B1G might marginally increase their revenue, but not enough to replace the exposure they’d lose to Ohio state and Michigan.

Not to mention what Ohio State, Michigan and Penn State lose?

Most years they have that Conference to themselves - in totality, not just talking about football presence in the sports and prestige.

Add in fricking Texas and Oklahoma?

"Hey, welcome to the Big10 Network - the Texas and Oklahoma Conference!"...now we join our programming of Texas and Oklahoma baseball and softball.

Shite, Ohio State doesn't want to share shite with Michigan and Penn State now.

They sure as hell don't want to sell their face of the league to Oklahoma and Texas...as the Big10 would promote the shite out of those two bluebloods to Texas TVs.

And as we all know, Texas just takes over shite when they move in, push old Big10 teams to the curb...bully their way at the pulpit in the Conference.

It's what Nebraska found out and why they wanted out of the Big12.
