Episode Notes
Big 12 teams unanimously reject Brett Yormark’s $30 million private equity offer—does this signal deeper issues within the conference’s financial strategy? The Big 12 Squad tackles the fallout from the Big 12’s capital proposal, exploring why schools like BYU, Colorado, and Houston turned down “free money.” The crew debates risk vs. reward, hidden contract fine print, and whether teams should gamble millions for a shot at football supremacy. Plus, a heated look at BYU and Baylor’s struggles on the baseball diamond, Oklahoma State’s home run barrage, and West Virginia’s dominance after sweeping Kansas. Is RedBird Capital’s involvement a missed opportunity or a warning sign? Get the full breakdown on NIL, TV revenue stakes, and the future of Big 12 power plays.
