Tubs continues to sweet talk the b12
http://www.sbnation.com/college-foot...off-cincinnati
When asked if the Bearcats would be a suitable addition to the Big 12, Tuberville was honest.
"Oh, I don't know. Well, I think they would. But will that happen? The problem is that the Big 12's TV package is not that great. They're not even near [some other power conferences in TV revenue]. So they have a tough time making a decision [on expanding]. Now if it was better, they would've already made a decision. Would we be in? I don't know."Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

B12: Don't do anything!
http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports...homa/29539903/
But Boren's comments were essentially meaningless, except in fueling conversation. It's almost as if he recognized the vacuum — these few weeks, at least up until the middle of July when conference media days crank up, can be the slowest of the calendar year — and threw sports talk radio a bone.Fitter.

Boren bluffing to force expansion?

Boren holds the trump card to force the expansion issue. The Oklahoma brand will always have a home in another conference.Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

The same sex marriage opinion should help BYU's B12 changes, now that same sex marriage is no longer at issue. A few years will have to pass, though, for this benefit to materialize.When a true genius appears, you can know him by this sign: that all the dunces are in a confederacy against him.

That is good news although I expect the waters to muddy again when the PAC12 regents want to legalize polygamy and the LDS Church opposes it.Originally posted by SeattleUte View PostThe same sex marriage opinion should help BYU's B12 changes, now that same sex marriage is no longer at issue.

Which schools would be a good fit?
http://www.cheatsheet.com/sports/big...tml/?a=viewall
1. Brigham Young University
BYU is currently playing football as an independent (no conference affiliation), and they play basketball as a member of the West Coast Conference. Not only do the Cougars have strong programs in the revenue-producing sports of football and basketball, but they also have one of the strongest national followings in all of college athletics. The geographical location of BYU’s campus could cause a bit of snag, but the fact that their fan base is loyal and willing to travel bodes well for their chances of landing an invite to join the Big 12. With that being said, the administration at BYU may be perfectly content staying independent and having the ability to schedule any team they please on a yearly basis.
