[QUOTE="RamblinRed, post: 1010100, member: 1776"] As mentioned by others the TV contracts weren't all that different by conference back in the 2012-2013 timeframe. It wasn't until the last 5-6 years that the contracts have become very different. I'll also add just adding money doesn't make you a better athletic program. Almost every program that has jumped from 1 power conference to another has had a worse record in their new conference than their old conference (both overall and in conference games). Fans think, "well now we are making more money then we were in the old conference", but you are no longer playing and competing against the old conference teams, you are now competing against the new conference teams. In many cases the programs are in a worse competitive position after moving than before as the new conference competitors are making so much more money than the new programs - often because they have much larger fanbases.
