The new pact, which takes effect with the 2012 football season, grants Fox Sports the exclusive cable rights to a minimum of 40 regular-season Big 12 football games—nearly double the number under its current agreement. Many of the telecasts will be distributed on FSN, which reaches over 85 million homes through two dozen owned and affiliated networks. Several other games will also be scheduled on FX, one of the most-watched cable networks in the country, now available in more than 99 million households, as part of its recently announced new college football game of the week. Fox also has similar cable exclusivity for a minimum of 40 Olympic sports events, including Conference championship events and women’s basketball. The agreement also includes comprehensive multimedia rights to allow Fox to maximize online, mobile, and wireless opportunities for its Big 12 content.

Box 15812, Mail Stop 1123 P.O. Box 42011, Mail Stop 2011 Austin, TX 78701 College Station, TX 77841 Lubbock, TX 79409 Board of Regents Board of Regents University of Oklahoma Oklahoma Agricultural & Mechanical Colleges 660 Parrington Oval, Room 119 2800 N. Lincoln Blvd. Norman, OK 73019 Oklahoma City, OK 73105 Regents: On behalf of the Kansas Board of Regents, the governing board of Kansas State University (K-State) and the University of Kansas (KU), we strongly urge you to retain your Big 12 Conference membership. This Conference is among the best in the nation; it is worth saving. Despite the recent disappointing departures of the University of Colorado and University of Nebraska, we are unwavering in our belief that the best course for K-State and KU is continued joint membership in a Big 12 Conference consisting of the remaining ten institutions. Over the past 14 years, Big 12 universities have displayed consistent success both on the field and in the classroom, and it’s not just the geography and athletic competiveness that defines this conference, it is also the emphasis on student athletes. In the midst of the conference realignment discussion, we must not forget that as conferences expand their geographic footprint, student athletes will be forced to spend more time outside the classroom traveling across the country to participate in weekly athletic events, only contributing to increased pressure on academic achievement.

IN 1990, I WAS INITIALLY CONCERNED READING ABOUT 3 DIFFERENT CONFERENCES ADDING NEW SCHOOLS: INCLUDING ARKANSAS LEAVING THE SOUTHWEST CONFERENCE FOR THE SEC; PENN STATE LEAVING ITS INDEPENDENT STATUS TO JOIN THE BIG 10; AND FLORIDA STATE DECIDING TO JOIN THE ACC CONFERENCE. BUT MY CONCERN SOON TURNED INTO WORRY--NAMELY, THAT THE BIG 8 MIGHT BE IN TROUBLE. MY VIEW SOON BECAME THAT OUR BIG 8 CONFERENCE HAD TO GET BIGGER OR WATCH SEVERAL OF OUR SCHOOLS LEAVE FOR THE SEC OR THE BIG 10. I WAS THE FIRST BIG 8 PRESIDENT TO PROMOTE A COMPLETE MERGER WITH THE 8 REMAINING SCHOOLS IN THE SOUTHWEST CONFERENCE. I KNOW I WAS THE FIRST BIG 8 CEO TO WORRY ABOUT THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS LEAVING THE SWC FOR THE PAC 10. I KNEW THAT A NUMBER OF TEXAS REGENTS AND ACADEMIC LEADERS HAD LONG DREAMED ABOUT JOINING A CONFERENCE WITH SOME OF THE BEST UNIVERSITIES IN THE WORLD, INCLUDING TRULY ELITE SCHOOLS SUCH AS STANFORD, UCLA, UC BERKELEY, USC, AND WASHINGTON.
