The Big 12 expansion groundswell

[Green Monstah]

I'm trying to keep negative mentions of religion out of my posts, and some fuckers just got to stir the pot.

*shrug*

I can go either way...I mean if Monsoon is a mouthpiece for...Hey! Look a widow story!

You think you're being clever, but you're making yourself look more and more stupid with each of these kind of posts. I sent you a PM. You ought to listen to my advice.

that is a great sig quote

Fine, I cleaned it up since I guess it could be construed as name calling, not something I generally care to do.

Relax. You and I aren't all that different. In my "spiritual darkness" post I was poking fun at uptight Mormons, but I can see how you could read it otherwise.

As the discussions with BYU, West Virginia and Louisville evolve, one source said, "[all three] are interested.'' But given the Big East's stance to hold Pittsburgh and Syracuse to their 27-month out clause, that might delay when the other two could arrive. In September, Pittsburgh and Syracuse announced they were leaving for the ACC.

For now, a source familiar with the situation said that the conference would likely stay at 10 for now and then 12 "in the future." That makes BYU the easier choice because it is playing as an independent, while the other programs are in the West Coast Conference.

Two issues the Big 12 would have to resolve with BYU are its BYU network and playing games on Saturday. LDS policy forbids the school from playing on Sundays.

However, that issue is not as difficult as it sounds. Most weekend conference basketball games are played on Saturdays. Baseball series are usually played Friday-Sunday. However, those series would have to be moved to Thursday-Saturday. Typically, the final series of the Big 12 baseball season has been a Thursday-Saturday format to give the tournament teams a chance to give their pitchers an extra day of rest before that tournament starts.

Hard hitting and definitive. Pulled from CUF itself.

LOL. Yeah, I think we had that baseball discussion about 6 weeks ago in this thread.

To be fair, we've left almost not Big 12 stones unturned in the last six weeks.

No kidding. If I go out of my way to send one of you guys a PM, you damn well better follow my advice.

I thought "TripletDaddy is a fuck stick" was a good sig quote.

You should try to find a complete set of The Thicke of the Night too. No Arsenio collection is complete without it!

Wasn't Studs on around then, too?

Chip Brown is having problems with his math...

Talked to a couple officials at schools in the Big 12 today, and they are expecting Missouri's board of curators, who are meeting in Kansas City, to announce on Friday that the Tigers are withdrawing from the Big 12 and will apply for membership in another conference (the SEC).

Multiple sources say the Missouri board of curators - and not MU chancellor Brady Deaton - took over this process and is spearheading the drive to leave the Big 12. After leading the charge to help hold the Big 12 together in September, Deaton later resigned his posts as head of the five-member, Big 12 expansion committee and as the chair of the Big 12 Board of Directors. Sources said the curators encouraged Deaton to take such action, and those were telling signs.

The leading candidates to replace Mizzou are West Virginia and Louisville.

And it looks like the Big 12 will stay at 10 schools for the short-term because the per-school TV revenue is likely to come down from $18 million to $15 million if the league goes from 10 to 12, sources said.

There is also still a belief among Big 12 administrators - driven primarily by Texas - that Notre Dame would ultimately move its sports other than football from the Big East into the Big 12. Football at Notre Dame would remain independent.

Stay tuned

Big12 - Colorado - NU - A&M + TCU - Mizzou + WVU + Louisville = 10?

Hey, Chip is talking so...

Why can't there be two candidates for one slot?
