    Well HS games are out per NCAA, and the B12 as part of the new agreement when ever they get around to it can decree that no B12 football games can be shown live on the Longhorn Network. I'm ok with that. If they paid 300M for HS football and bad Texas/B12 games then they were stupid and made a bad bargin.

    Also I wonder when somebody will make a FOI request for all documents regarding negotiations and the final LHN contract.

    I will only say that while the Gator contract with Sunshine may be tier 3 I hardly think it is in the same ball park as LHN.

    I may be wrong, but I don't believe the SEC would allow a situation like LHN to exist.

    Bill,
    I hope you are right! The SEC right now is very competitive on a national level and everyone in making money. If we have any sense whatsoever we will just keep rolling along. 8)
