Sounds like they will be there until 2024, most likely until 2025

Honestly… Not sure how OU affords the move without some major donors stepping up to the plate to pitch-in or some very creative financing.
Granted, projections are they stand to make a lot more than they would had they stayed in the Big12 from increased TV revenue. So the pain will be temporary.. but as revenues fall and costs increase who is going to foot that upfront bill?

That was when they were assuming there would be an 8 to 12 team playoff. The issue now is that the money isn't the windfall advertised. Is it possible the two Joe's lied to the board of regents and everyone else?
Here's another question, why is Castiglione considered such a great AD? They supposedly had this huge war chest and were actually one of the pillars of the financial plan that supported the university. It's easy to blame Boren, but when do the questions about brokelahoma athletics and their lack of financial accountability in the athletic administration start being asked? It's a state entity that uses state funds after all.

I don't pretend to know all of the details of their financials, nor if any state money is actually used in their Athletics Department. Last I knew, neither OSU nor OU's athletics used state money. Unless it's changed, OSU's athletic department and Residential Life department generated their own budgets.
Our goal should not be to have a balanced conference;
Our goal should be get OSU wins; improve OSU’s clout and make ourselves more attractive to get OSU in a conference with a better deal.
We need to level up.
Playing humble has not served us well. We have a higher ceiling than the current Big 12.

These two just can't GTFO fast enough for me.
