Of course without MU, KU football has been abysmal. Hmm, it is a conundrum. |

Mizzou obsession. |
The remainder of the Big XII should join with the Big East by either dropping their football programs to FCS or somehow convincing Butler, Georgetown and Villanova to move up.

I'm a tell'n ya, I say tell'n all my CP brothers & sisters, the 12, I say the Big 12, err Big 8 I say is expanding to the Big 12 again!
Damn ding dongs don't get it, just don't get it I say!. They just need to go with 4 more, it's just a matter of time many when many conferences will go to 16 teams just like the SEC did. Why? TV Contracts, gate draws. It's coming boys, your top major conferences in the next 20 years will be 16 team conferences. The B12 made concessions on travel once with WV, reason too I say go with the 8 teams I mentioned, you get multiple games in an area for traveling during basketball season. Plus the pods I mentioned puts in you with some in state rivalries and closer traveling. I just see more 16 teams conferences coming down the road!. |

BYU, Cincinnati, UCF, and Houston to the Big12 is basically a done deal.
It will be interesting to see if the schools are willing to sign a new GoR, or if they leave it open for when the B1G/PAC negations start in a few years. ESPN may be a little more willing to keep payments higher than expected, or if they want a battle in court to keep Oklahoma and Texas in the Big12 through 2025/damages/breaking the bylaws/breaking the GoR/and so on. |
Cincinnati, West Virginia, UCF, Iowa St, Kansas St, and Kansas the new Big 12 East. BYU, Okie State, Tech, Baylor, TCU and Houston the new Big 12 West.

Why add and split up the pie unless they can sell themselves as being BIGGER? Here's the deal, after the B12 gets these 4 schools, who's left that is relevant to add to your excising conference to make it better? |

This proposed league looks exactly like the PAC, in terms of athletics. Not sure if that’s good or bad. |
Apparently 8 of the 10 Big 12 schools have to vote yes for an expansion candidate to get approved.
Do OU and Texas get to vote? |

Yes, the revamped B12 will be very similar to the Pac 12 in terms of athletic performance. |

Lol my family and I aren’t quite that old. Or big.

LMAO Can't even imagine how patronizing that was for the players after the fact. Having an extremely competitive game against an FCS team be treated like it's a championship win.

USF fans are taking it pretty hard that UCF has left them in the dust.

It will be a lot more clear if they sign or GoR or not. It’s still possible in a year or two other conferences extended invites to the remaining 8(or at least 5-7 of them). They aren’t doing their negotiations yet. Their rights are up in 24(and Big12 in 25). There’s time. TCU was set to join the Big East(as was Iowa State) until they got the Big12 invite and the Big12 ended up surviving and Big East went away from football. If conferences don’t expand, I think the Big12 does. Maybe adds Memphis and Boise St. I really think Amazon is going to become a player and overpay for the Big12 if it stays together. That will open the door to other conferences in the future. They already have NFL Thursday Night Football, and are trying to get Sunday Ticket. The more football fans for them the better. They can also advertise said schools products, which I’ve been guilty of seeing a slick Chiefs or Cyclones item and buying. My source said(about a month ago) than Amazon is interested in a 14-16 team Big12, and media footprint doesn’t matter to them. They want the large alumni base, avid fans, and more people seeing their ads and buying products from them. They also have triple the money of Disney/ESPN(who disney is already thinking about getting rid of). It’s going to be an interesting next few years. |

If Amazon wanted that, why not do it with PAC? Their deal expires same time ours does, 2024. They have way better brands and superior markets. Plus Amazon is a West-coast high tech brand associates with those programs. And I’m aware their sports suck (5 of the 6 North teams lost yesterday and Oregon survived at the end vs SDSU). |
Quote:
I’m assuming going to Amazon has some risk, and at this point the Big12 may have to take some risks. |

I've always thought it was a weird flex, whether it's Kansas football or how Kansas BB aren't supposed to ever do it, or i KU fans making fun of KSU fans doing it in the octagon, etc. One week people are flexing fandom because people in SoCal don't care to show up to sports, then the next week we're flexing because the Kansas fans who did show up had too much fun. :spock: |

Maybe an FCS move would be the smart thing for them in the long run with all this realignment focusing on football programs. |
And Kansas thinks they are going to the B1G.

They are taking extra time to put glitter allover the invite since they like art and shit.

They're taking extra time to see if KU's football program improves and if they re-commit to upgrading the stadium.
And let everyone chill out a year |

Seems like fan fiction. |
Quote:
Nobody is going to give a dime to that project unless there’s a BIG offer first. |
The conferences are going to all be destroyed because of the new P2W aspect of College football. Money college will probably end up creating their own league.
Division 1 will probably end up with half as many colleges as it has now. KU doesn't have the money to compete with big money colleges. The ivy league will get better and better since recruiter will now be auction day. Highest bidder win the most talent. |

Traditional power schools like Nebraska are going to take it in the shorts imo. They just don't have enough rich alumi. I think that colleges might start dropping a bunch of sports that don't make them money too. Title IX makes them keep some girls sports. So Basketball for Guys and Girls. Football for guys, gymnastic for girls. The rest could get dumped. Would girl's volleyball bring in more money than gymnastics? I have no idea if either makes any money. |

Basketball schools will consolidate into a basketball only conference to save money. |
