Lynette, I don't think you are alone on this. Many people upset and I heard
a good one today on the Paul Finebaum show. Sirius radio he is referring to
Texas as the Qu_ _r and steer state. Texas has allot of egg on their over
this.
here is a link to his web page http://finebaum.com/

It is my understanding that withholding the 80% is to cover the "liquidated
damages"? Am I wrong. I don't doubt the Big XII -2 will try to withhold the
max (especially from NU) but there is nothing to say we can't sue to get it
back, right?
I'm so pissed at the way the potential orphans gave up their claim to any of
that money (if it comes to the league) to Texa$$, OU, and TAMU. That totally
disgusts me!

SportsByBrooks has a clarification... (Warning: while this article doesn't
have anything offensive on it, some employers may find other things on the
site NSFW...)
As noted by Nebraska Chancellor Harvey Perlman this
week, there is no existing Big 12 bylaw that states that teams departing
from the league must pay out a penalty fee to remaining conference
members.
Perlman noted on KLIN-AM in Lincoln yesterday that, “there is a
liquidated damages provision that purports to make the existing members
whole,” but that there is no pre-designated charge for leaving the
conference.
That doesn’t mean though that there isn’t something in the Big 12
bylaws that will injure NU and CU financially. There is. And it’s the
reason both schools are in such a mad dash to escape the league.
Under Big 12 bylaws, up to 80 percent of league revenue can be
withheld from Colorado and Nebraska over the next two years, and
conference commish Dan Beebe has stated on the record that he has every
intention of
garnishing 2011 revenue due the two schools.

The bylaws do not mention dispute resolution. The Big 12 does business in
all the conference states, so they could presumably be sued in any of them
or in federal court.
