Hopefully the Ville DOES get invited to the Big 12-highly possible especially if Missouri stay (unlikely).  No one would join the BE then-as a FB conference it would lose it's AQ and no one joins.  If the FB conference is done, and in MHO it is now, would the BB only school get the FB schools exits fees (like ND)?  If they did I see lawsuits like crazy.  Maybe wrong but SU,WV and Pitt may get off with paying nothing other than the $5 million.  Which I believe should only be shared by the remaining FB schools.

My understanding of the WVU deal is that the Big 12 will "pay" the fee related to the 27 months-say $21 million, but WVU is taking a lesser share of the normal share to pay it back.  Example 50% normal share next year with the other members splitting the difference, the say 75% normal share and in about 4-5 yrs a full share.  Therefore WVU pays off a $21 million loan in 5 years with reduced revenue and they move next year.

But if the league is shuts down why would the be obligated to pay a penny and I hope that is what we see.  Hope that makes sense-it's late.
