No one asked, but here is an 'overview' of the Big 12 GOR taken from the agreement as provided to an OU FOIA:Big 12 Grant of Rights overview:* The agreement is a signed addendum by member schools dated July 1, 2012 to the television agreement made with the Big 12, ESPN and FOX. The agreement lasts through June 30, 2025* All prospective members of the league must agree to sign and be added to the addendum as a condition of membership* The Grant of Rights does not transfer ownership of rights, but rather grants rights to the league to fulfill the television contract for the duration of the agreement. It does, however, give the league ownership/copyright of an audiovisual reproduction* The league is granted rights to all games present and future that are currently given to television partners, which constitutes home football and basketball games, excepting certain third tier games ("retained rights"). The school, even if it elects to leave the Big 12 conference, will continue to have its "retained rights" meaning that any game not exercised by television partners, would revert back to the school (to presumably be contracted back to a new league). * This means that essentially the league retains all future tier-1 rights through 2025 of home contests, except the existing rights the schools have to broadcast one home football game and select home basketball games. * There is no exit fee or buyout specifically stated in the addendum* Additionally, the institution retains all rights and ownership to ancillary programming</blockquote>
