Nebraska would be stupid to go back. Big 10 schools get just as much money as SEC schools. Big 12 schools don’t get anywhere near the money Neb gets, except for Texas, which has its own deal.

Nebraska isn’t leaving now, especially when the odds are no one will be playing football this fall anyway.

They do now. But during the next contracts, that will change.

'18-'19 academic year

The Big 12 paid out $38.8 million, and the schools retained 3rd tier rights

The Big 10 paid out $55 million, however that number will be going down. Two schools Rutgers & Maryland do not get a full share, yet.

I disagree. We are witnessing game changing circumstances. The Big 12 is tied with the ACC and the SEC. So, the Big 12 is now a more attractive destination than the Big 10.

Roscoe,

Nebraska will be more competitive, and more successful in the Big 12. That will result in better rankings, better recruits, and more revenue in the longterm.

It’s a smart move.

Nebraska will never be more than a second tier power in the Big 10.

They’ve like Maryland.

Yes, they get decent revenue from the Big 10, but they’ll never be relevant as a football power, they’ll never be able to compete with Ohio State, PSU, or Michigan. They won’t be able to get the recruits. And their schedule is too difficult.
