I heard FedEx was going to buy the Big 12.

UCF and USF down the road?

 

At that time, both schools should have a crack at the ACC in tandem - forget the BIG 12.

The guy that wrote the KU article is well connected to KU.  He's the Lawrence (home of KU) newspaper sports editor and writer for KU sports.

And by the way, read the comments section to the article and everyone seems to be in favor of adding USF and UCF.

I misunderstood who was saying what.  Still nice to see some positive press.

Kansas would be for it because they need the bump in recruiting a larger presence in florida would provide.  Pretty smart.  Plus we wouldnt be a threat to their basketball program.

I love this quote:

But we have taste here, so we're only bringing up the fact that a kid died so that we can tell commenters not to bring it up. It's not an argument. Clear?

[edit] he left off the :evil:, though.

Here is an interesting article about FSU and the Big 12.

 

http://www2.ljworld.com/news/2012/may/14/coach-fsu-should-give-big-12-look/

 

That in and of itself should stop expansion in the Big 12 this year.

 

Go Bulls!

Although the article brings up some good points for discussions, FSU isn't going to leave the ACC. Face it, they have the easiest path to the National Championship Playoff's of any conference. Why would they leave the ACC just to battle TCU, Baylor, Oklahoma and others? They wouldn't! hey need only concern themselves with on average 1 school per year while other conferences have far greater depth. It makes little sense and besides, this is just saber rattling to jump start their network talks.

    With the climate going on in NCAA athletics, you’re either moving forward at a hard pace or you’re not. I think what intrigued me the most is they’re very determined to become a big player nationally.
