Your counter argument is:

Actually as a history lesson originally the Big East was going to offer UCF a football only membership. 

to which you fail to provide any evidence of.

He doesn't need to.  Anyone around at that time knows this is true.  UCF was in until Lee Roy Selmon started pulling strings and selling the USF program through his connections.

After the first sentence, not too much I have a problem with. It's when you started out by wanting to give us uninformed Bulls fans a "history lesson", about the BE originally going to give UCF a football only invite, based on nothing more than Internet message board postings is when it gets laughable.

Wait, you don't remember this either?

I thought you were old enough to remember.

Old enough to remember is kind of oxymoronic.

What were we talking about?

I kind of feel as if the BIG12 just isn't the right fit. Sure the money is good and of course we would go if offered. But there is a part of me hoping that the BIG12 will snatch up 4 schools other than us and trigger the ACC to want to expand. I am not sure how the ACC would feel about adding FL schools without losing one of the two they already have, but then again they could dominate FL like the BIG12 dominated TX. If there were a choice between conferences I think we would fit a lot better with the ACC than the BIG12. And I am quite aware it is a long shot.

Well if you were not so sensitive then it would not be an issue.  Just because I am a UCF fan you don't have to take everything as an attack.  You can believe it or not.  I really don't care.  I have been around this board and what I believe was a predecessor  for a long time.  I don't talk much, but I have something to add or ask from time to time.  But it is history and sorry you are too young to have known it and I have nothing to prove to you.  Take it for what it is worth.

This ....

Hell, I thought I was more diplomatic with my responses to this obviously thin skinned, obtuse Kanigit fan than most of y'all.

There is nothing that I can find that backs up the assertion that the BE was going to invite UCF as football only but changed their mind. If you want to throw that out there as a rumor going around back then, fine, but as a "history lesson" ... fuhgetaboutit.
