yup, would have been a much more admirable thing to wait until now to wait for the Horns to sell out to the SEC SEC SEC and then scramble to find a spot

the Horns have proven they were willing to shit on their conference mates to grab whatever for themselves

and that is what the Huskers did to protect themselves

same/same

neither are better than the other

Huskers just had better foresight than Douchebag DeLoss

Your hangup about DeLoss is so weird, and is really beneath you.  Your school bailed for more money.  Just admit it and move on.  Stop trying to blame DeLoss and Texas for your school's greed.

What a load of crap you continue to choose to feed yourself.  I'm disappointed in you.  Honestly.

Who left and who stayed?  As always, the proof is in the pudding. And this argument is beneath you.  I never considered you one of the Husker Prick Squad.  You trying to achieve that status now?

my school bailed for more money and a more stable money source long term

I've always admitted this

DeLoss is a douchebag

he might as well have moved for more money back when he was in power. he didn't do anything admirable or worthy of note

he is what he is.  Admit it and move on

Your hard-on for DeLoss is weird.  And this argument is beneath you.  I'll let it go now.  But this is not something you should feel proud about allowing to continue to fester.  You broke up.  Stop calling back to your ex and telling them how much you hate them and are glad you broke up. It's weird and borderline psycho.

That Nebraska people still feel the need to rationalize their own greedy move to the B1G and bring up Texas, really tells us every single thing we need to know about the motivations behind that move, and the guilt you still feel about it.

Fuck that chicken, fuckboy.

It's funny to see Nebraska being called the greedy one.  Wasn't it Texas who demanded their own network so that they didn't have to share profits with other conference members?  No wonder Colorado, Nebraska, Mizzou, and Texas A&M bolted.  It's quite possible that the Big 12 would have survived mostly intact had they made different choices.

DeLoss was running the conference back then

you won't argue that

I don't hate the EX, I'd much rather go back to playing in the Big 12 than the "new" Big ten with USC/UCLA

I'm still not glad about the break

DeLoss, more than any other one entity caused the break.  I don't even think that was his intention,  I think his arrogance and douchebaggery caused Nebraska to look to the Big Ten. 

I'm a bit weird and borderline psycho, but I'm glad Nebraska isn't in the Big 12 today hoping for a good place to land

You might wanna double-check your facts here.  Nebraska not only voted against a B12 network, but Tom Osborne has openly and proudly stated that Nebraska was closer to establishing its own single-school network than Texas was, when they chose to bail on the B12.

On top of that, Nebraska voted FOR unequal revenue sharing that favored themselves, EVERY single time it came up in B12 commissioner conferences.

Don't believe me?  Fearless will confirm. He knows it's true.

to be fair, Nebraska was fine with not sharing and had the jump on Texas for their own network
but, yes, if Texas and Nebraska would have had a better relationship back in the day, the Big 12 might be together and in a much better place today

I don't disagree with this at all.  Bad choices were shared by everyone in the conference.

You know who else voted AGAINST a conference network and FOR unequal revenue sharing EVERY single time it came up?  Texas A&M.

yup, the Big 12 was doomed from the start

I blame DeLoss

I'd guess every single Aggie would as well

so, you might be correct, but you're out numbered

Did not know all of that.  Sounds like it was just a dysfunctional thing all around.  The others figured out that sharing profits was in the best interest of the conference.
