Your first mistake is listening to the talking heads. If you haven't figured out by now, you need to realize they have either A) an agenda or B) are being spoonfed propaganda.

They're going to tell you what they want to tell you or what someone else wants them to tell you.

So now that we have that out of the way (don't listen to the mainstream media), I need to caution you against dismissing the Texas-ND scenario for the Big Ten. Not only is it alive and well (and has been for 18 months) but the lowest common denominator of acceptable terms for Texas & the Big Ten is not what you anticipate it being.

There have been many discussions about the network, one of which allows Texas to keep the LHN and not take part in the BTN. All other revenues would be split equally.

In the aforementioned scenario, Texas could have tier 2 rights to broadcast their non-conference games on the network, but conference games would continue to be broadcast on the Big Ten Network. This means Texas fans in the state could see their games on the LHN where Texas profits, but Big Ten fans can continue seeing the game on the Big Ten Network. All parties benefit. While this may not be the final method, it's one option that's been discussed by all parties.
