    Lot's of time. Lot's of time.

      Oh brother! Another guy with his own "count". This mess is going to devolve into an argument like the followers of Mayan calandar and listeners of Family Radio.

        Anyone else feel that? And by that, I mean nothing? The ground underneath the Big 12 has finally stopped shifting. Fans can stop wondering who's in and who's out.

        Expansion seems highly, highly unlikely. Louisville, Cincinnati and BYU loom outside the Big 12's gates, but the league must be assured that any member that joins won't cause the 10 current members' slices of the financial pie to grow any thinner. TCU's and West Virginia's admittance was about bringing in Top 25 programs with BCS success more than admitting a team with a huge fan base, though the Mountaineers possess both.

        If any of the Big 12's three most obvious options had those things, they'd likely already have joined the Big 12.

            • So the Big 12 still doesn't want a championship game, huh? I don't blame them, I guess. It worked out so well for Okie State last year.

                  Don't have BYUtv?!? Do the sources close to the Viking family live in North Korea?

                      This post by GM is post #12012. That sounds even more significant.

                      • Hey guys, I was reviewing my posts in this thread and decided to delete one that I felt was no longer valid (text quoted below) so I hope that you don't mind that Dabrockster is now the 12,000th poster. Sorry if I inconvenienced anybody!

                        BYU will be in the B12 by July of 2018. Mark it down.
