Message: [QUOTE="Jake, post: 293523, member: 86"] I'm stunned that people don't see how Texas is benefitting from the grant of rights. The GOR makes it damn near impossible for teams to leave on their own. onesies or twosies. As if they leave they leave their media rights behind to Texas or whomever is left...but if Texas decided it wanted to leave, it would cause the conference to immediately implode...and therefore, Texas wouldn't have to fork over the rights to anyone. In addition, it provides MOTIVE for Texas to blow up the conference if it ever decides to leave. There is no bulletproof plan to keep the kingpins within a conference, they have money and wield power. I have no idea how this is going to shake out, but I still see a huge battle down the road between the ACC and the Big 12. [/QUOTE]
