[QUOTE="CEB, post: 1007367, member: 4905"] Possibly? ESPN isn’t without fault, but I don’t think they are the primary driver. Greed trumped allegiance, history, etc for conferences. This realignment stuff was spooling up before the revenues exploded. ESPN is certainly throwing around money to sweeten their own piece of the pie… no doubt. Can’t say what prompted the Big 12 C&D letter… maybe a reaction to the impending doom they felt as a conference at the time? Maybe a negotiation tactic (after all, they got right back in bed with espn)? Maybe there was interference from espn? Maybe a little if all of the above? I guess if ESPN keeps buying everyone off, we’ll never know for certain. The ACC deal is unique in that it is coming to a head with potentially a lot of term left (depending on your position with the option speculation). [/QUOTE]
