Yes :    " Even more disturbing, Will Weatherford used the indoor practice facility groundbreaking to announce the intent to build an on campus stadium. He did so, it seems pretty clearly, with absolutely no plan and seemingly in the spur of the moment. He did so out of angst and anger. There is no money for an on-campus stadium, there is no real plan, just more dreams."

Best case scenario: they pay that fee and go. Before they even play a Big 12 game a few teams defect and we are one of the replacement schools along with enough other AAC schools that we don't have to pay the exit fee (think I saw if the Big 12 dropped below a certain amount of teams they wouldnt have exit fees, assuming we have something similar)

I think the B12 will wait and add after the contract is up. So we need to get our act together soon (on the field and off). At the same time if we get $5mil from the defections maybe that can go into the stadium fund.
