A Big XII network is needed badly IMO

[xgunnx]

The cable Co. In Morgantown (i have Xfinity) has the BTN and a SEC channel. Too bad WVU is In a network-less Big12.

Hardly ever get to watch WVU basball unless attending a home game. Finding a good Big 12 baseball game thats televised in this viewing area is rare.

Is Texas LHN, that big of a stumbling block that something cant be worked out. Is Texas another Notre Dame concerning Confetence growth?

Ummm.... ...how can you even ask that question?

Texas has always been a problem for their conference. ...they're the reason that teams leave.

Yes, Texas should just make the Long Horn Network into the Big 12 Network. That would solve a major issue with this Conference and we still need at least two more Eastern time zone teams to go with WVU.
But if you look at those teams that left the Big 12 they are not setting the world on fire in their new homes either.
CU not doing much in Pac 12 Country.
MU is going down in flames in BB and Football in the SEC. The only thing good about that move is some$
Nebraska not doing much better in the Big 10 in BB and the football team is not the same powerhouse that it once was.
The only defector currently doing something would be Texas A@M in both sports in the SEC.

1. Add a Network.
2. Find two more teams and the league would be fine.

Missouri has won 2 division championships in football - and then two losing records. That is about the same as Missouri did in the Big12.

Yes, Texas has always been the bull in the china shop and the reason why Nebraska Mizzu and T A&M left the conference. Right now TexA$$ in the LHN is the only thing holding the conference back from taking a step forward. If they are successful, it will be the end of the BIG12 as a power conference within the next 10 years.

That is the stumbling block to overcome way before expansion.

Agreed,you won't have expansion without the BIG12 network and you can't have BIG12N with the LHN

You, would think that Texas would smarten up someday and soon. I mean Texas may rule this league now.But if the Big 12 collapses in the future then what?
Texas would fail in the SEC probably and no way would a new member in that league rule the conversation. They would be a no body in the SEC with no mouth to speak at the big boy table.
Texas may be down now in Football but if they moved to the SEC they would probably die a slow death. As a National name program.
Pac 12 move would kill them traveling to the West and even if they take OU with them.
Big 10 Texas would survive in name but still be a smaller fish in that league.
Texas maybe a big bully in this league, but if it dies Texas may find a home again. But will they be able to thrive or bully them?
Texas hopefully will get a clue and help fix this league.
