On inside authority, the first school to reach 1000 pages regarding expansion on their message board is in.

Well there you go. I was hoping it would be which mascot had the most backing in a national contest...

Having WVU and UCF would give us a couple games per year with some solid rivalry heat. I would also take Memphis and Cincy maybe. Although I don't care about playing Cincy at all. Maybe I could flip-flop on Cincy, but the point is no ECU or UCONN.

Then whenever we play Texas I am going to Austin for a foodfest.

Folks, if you want to know who is joining the Big 12, it's simple. Ignore the schools publicly begging. The quiet ones know they're in.

I have to say he is right for once. We have professionals working behind the scenes instead of looking like fools.

If the Big 12 realignment talk happened this time last year, is Houston still the sexy favorite?  They were coming off back to back 8-5 seasons with a 5-7 record the year before. 

If they go to 14 I can see Houston being included, but if they are truly looking to the future, one great season at the right time still doesn't provide all aspects of what the conference says they are looking for. 

Florida builds new markets for both subscribers and recruiting grounds. Even Ohio provides the same. 

Looking at the big picture and long term benefits USF/UCF combo plus Houston and Cincy really makes the most sense in all areas

USF-USF even brings along the possibilty of continued growth as a nasty rivalry game which adds more viewing drama during rivalry week.

That's why I've said that this should be the cover page for any and all correspondence sent to anybody associated with the B12:

What could have been...just feel like we're being black balled

https://www.yahoo.com/sports/news/aac-commissioner-it-looks-like-some-members-will-leave-for-big-12-153220159.html

AAC commissioner Mike Aresco told Gridiron Now’s Tony Barnhart this week that the league has begun “contingency planning for just about every scenario.” “I’ve been talking to the (athletic directors) and the president of the schools that might leave, and it looks like some of them will,”

We can start some rivalries with WKU and MTSU once they join the AAC, imagine trips to Nashville every year

A couple is 2, a few is 3 so maybe some is 4?
