"This is where the BHV presentation is key. Expanding pro rate doesn’t make up for any perceived gap between the Big Ten and the SEC. Even if you pay the Big 12 $500 million more for the rest of the contract for two teams or a billion for four, like CBS reported, all that does is pay whoever you’re bringing in more, not the current teams. Memphis may jump from being paid $3 million to $23 million, but Oklahoma is still paid $23 million."

While the Dennis Dodd's article about 1 billion sounds all nice and sexy, the devil is in the details that is outlined in the above quote.

How exactly is expanding by two to four teams going to make more money for Oklahoma? I don't see it. If new expansion schools don't make money for the rest of the league, then the next TV deal is harmed.

What none of us will know is what schools would add money that the consultants provided for their data. If no school makes money for Texas and Oklahoma, then expansion is dead no matter what any random person says in the media. The media doesn't have the data.

The network stuff was shut down pretty uick and I suspect the value isn't there for expansion with G5 schools.
