They are getting a HUGE payday.
OU and UT are looking at $20 mil each.
Plus they are playing in a cupcake conference. OU and UT have absolutely no interest in playing the likes of USC, Oregon, Washington, Cal, Stanford, etc every single week.
They are getting a big payday according to Don Beebe. We'll see if they really get that enormous jump in television money, or if Don Beebe is still the dolt that has had his thumb (and DeLoss Dodds' d**k) in his mouth for the last several years. This has fiasco written all over it, and I couldn't be happier. We got what we wanted, a Pac-12 without Texass.
