The AAC logo has been removed from Nippert turf. Will the new Big 12 Logo need to be at 50 yard line, where we currently have C-paw?

Part of the agreement to join the Big XII was that Carson Field at Nippert Stadium is to have the logo stretch between the 30s, and touch the sidelines.

Per a recent interview @ Dallas Morning News, Yormark said the 2023 14-team football conference schedule will be released this mid-month. Also, talks with Gonzaga possibly to join the B12 are ongoing.

This says that Yormark reached a good deal.

McMurphy reporting that's it's 50M per school after the postseason stuff. This is actually more than the existing payout per school by 8M

NEWS: The Big 12 has agreed to a six-year, $2.28 billion media rights deal with ESPN and Fox Sports, per @Ourand_SBJ.

The extension will bring in $380M a year — a $160M increase from its current deal.

My math is bad but I've got that at 31.6M per team per year not including post season money . This is an extension of the existing contract. My understanding is that the four new schools are not getting a full share until UT and OU are out. Regardless, it's way more than the AAC was giving us.

Will be interesting to see the details of the deal come out... specifically what happens when we add PAC schools

In any case, it’s all better than 7M

And better than the $750,000 per school in the Mack.

My understanding is that this is being handled as an extension, with all changes occurring at the end of the current agreement.

It’s tiered from what I learned today. We don’t get a full share until the new contract kicks in. And to your point, that’s now my understanding as well.

In any case, it’s all better than 7M

[swilsonsp4]

Ourand at SBJ is indicating the total package is 400M for the conference for Tier 1 and 2 rights. This does not appear include postseason or championship cuts from those events.

The question is how this gets divided and when it takes effect. If it’s after Texas and OU depart then we’re talking 33M per school.

My understanding is that this is being handled as an extension, with all changes occurring at the end of the current agreement.

I was really looking forward to $40M or above. I guess that there are lower tiers that may get some revenue. Also, the conference can wait for a year and reopen the negotiations.

I think you're going to get that with the shares of postseason $ in this conference. In all sports. the $33M is strictly TV rights
