🎙️ Memphis Offered $200 Million to Join the Big 12… and Got Rejected | Conference Realignment Drama This week, Memphis made headlines with one of the boldest moves in college football realignment history — offering up to $200 million in sponsorship deals to join the Big 12 Conference. They even proposed waiving revenue distributions and allowing the Big 12 to kick them out by 2030 if they didn’t add value. But despite the massive proposal, the Big 12 unanimously said no. Why?
What does this tell us about the Big 12’s future plans and Memphis’ standing in the national landscape? In this episode, we break down:
✅ The details of Memphis’ unprecedented offer
✅ Why the Big 12 declined despite the money
✅ What this move means for Memphis, the AAC, and even the Pac-12
✅ Whether any other schools could take a similar swing
✅ What’s next in the ever-changing world of college football realignment
Whether you're a Memphis fan, a Big 12 loyalist, or just love the chaos of realignment, this episode breaks it all down.
