I just read the bylaws, Section 3.2. Every school needs to be announcing its plans to talk to other people or that it has had talks with other conferences or parties or they have withdrawn from the Conference after 12 hours. Has everyone confessed their sins? Or is it just the one narc school? Because 3 to 5 schools are on notice.

What triggers ESPN and Fox's ability to renegotiate the amount they pay for TV rights? As soon as Texas and OU become SEC members can ESPN walk in and play hardball or is it when the Big XII loses the rights that Texas and OU granted to them?
Welp, they got us, we broke the bylaws. Looks like they have a great case to kick us right out of the conference and put a letter in our personnel file, darn.
