Well the Big 12 just became more stabilized - -Not Big 10 or SEC Stable but makes us for sure the third best stability for future reference.

The big 12 and ESPN & FOX came to agreement on new media rights/deal.

The new deal calls for a 2.28 Billion over 6 year contract , which in turn they said figures out to be 380 Million a year and averages to right about 32 Million pe School. While now the Big 12 is finishing out it's final years of 220 Million Average

Now while this isn't like we had with Oklahoma & Texas the report said was when you add in the NCAA playin off & NCAA revenue - -it will avgerage out to right at 50 Million per School despite losing Oklahoma & Texas. - -where it was 42 Million per School. - -Not bad at all.

What this does isSecures the future of the Big 12 , don't end up blowin up. It future probably adds also that if like more chances then not that if the Big 10 does in fact in up taking Oregon & Washington to the BIG - that pretty much destroys the PAC 12 like has been talked about , and in turn you gonna see other PAC Schools bailing - -most common for the Big 12 adding Arizona - -Arizona State - - Colorado - - & Utah - -most likely these 4 but for sure you would see Arizona & Arizona state making the Big 12 the 3rd mega Conference. - -I for one feel good about this. - -Although with the BIG adding those two Schools makes it even a less chance KU goes BIG. - I really didn't think we were going there anyway just they don't think we bring enough to the Conference. - -So we make the best of the situation and survive - -were gonna be all right

@jayballer67 Couple of other things from all of this. - - Max Olsen reported that the Contract will have a Pro Raa clause in the event of future expansion , meaning eeach schools

more about this contract. Max Olsen reported the Contract will have a Pro Rata clause meaning the share will increase for each school in the event of future expansion.

According to John Wilner the current PAC 12 deal with FOX & ESPN average is 20.8 Millio over 12 yr period per school- - -a difference of 10.8 Million per School to get even with the Big 12 they would need to get a 51.9 % increase . - It helps also like I said cause fully believe this just furthers the chance of expansion and puts the Big 12 in 3 different time zones and offers Coast to Coast for exposure

It's too bad we couldn't swoop in, and take Oregon, Washington, and the two Arizonas.

The writer that @jayballer67 mentions, Wilner, reports that nothing appears imminent with Oregon and Washington for now. Also has said before them to the Big 12 seems unlikely. But who knows. Mayhem!

Mercy , been browsing the PAC 12 message boards tonight wanted to see what's now being said after the BIG 12 new media deal with ESPN & Fox.

For the most part they coming all unglues -true there are a few that think they will survive , but for the most part they think the PAC 12 is cooked. - from what I read the best ESPN offered them was 17 Million pe School.

Some posters were saying and of course these are just posters reports but they haad gotten somewhere and I could see it but they said"

One report said that the BIG 12 was talking with Washinton -- Oregon & Utah saying that these three Schools would add an additional 5-8 Million fot the Big 12, These Schools liking the idea because of the short deal where they could bail sounds like. - Also being reported that - --- Memphis & San Diego State making huge cash offers to join the Big 12 and are agreeable to having reduced payout out for extended time.

Arizona St in a panic now that the Big 12 will not invite them or Arizona because they bring nothing in football sad attendance and such. - -the boards on the Pac are going nuts especially Arizona State - well Arizona also - -heard some from Colorado - Another poster said that One Pac school was very close to pulling right now to join the Big 12 and said once one pulls out - -it's all on like Donkey Kong
