The Grant of Rights, as the Big 12 has it anyways, does not preclude a Big 12 team from leaving.

This is true and ironically I think this was done to keep Texas in the Big 12. They are the one that could leave without batting an eye should a better situation arise.

Yeah and if Texas (whose athletic dept. Made almost $200 million alone last year) were to leave, other schools would have a strong case to leave without being penalized.

Still think the ACC is stable?

Almost official. When the C7 forms their own league, Depaul will be making more TV revenue than us
Brett McMurphy @McMurphyESPN ESPN on clock to keep Big East rights; NBC offers $20M-$23M year for 7 years; $2M per team/year http://espn.go.com/college-sports/st...er-sources-say … Quote:

A perennial top 25 historic program in FSU has seen a dramatic loss in revenue and football power ever since joining the ACC...Now they can't even sell out their allotted ticket amounts to Conference championship games. The status quo simply is not working for them nor has it been the last 5 years. |

I am rooting for NBC in this one. If they win the rights to the big east, I can see ESPN telling the other conferences to take UC, UCONN, USF, etc. to further weaken their biggest competitors (NBC) premier league.
