Neb and Mizzou and CU explore their options and they're tearing the league apart and all hell is breaking loose. UT and A&M do it and it's "fallback". Fallback for something that hasn't happened, so they're exploring their options just liek Neb and MU and CU. Baylor just spent the better part of 2 days throwing a fellow Big 12 member under the bus and then comes out and say they hope for a stong Big 12?
The crux of it all is that this league, where the PR backstabbing is coming from all sides might actually stay together after all this. No one in this conference likes this conference except for UT who only wants to stay because they are, right now, far and away the top dog. Why upset the status quo? It's ridiculous that these schools, that from all appearances hate each other might actually try to continue to make this work.

Pac-10 commish Larry Scott and COO Kevin Weiberg visited Texas 2 wks ago to discuss fallback in case Neb and Mizzou bolted for the Big Ten.
