Perhaps. There's also a possibility of another one or two.

Have to think Arizona or Arizona State is the other school.

It said "another school beyond the 4 corners."

So it wouldn't be Oregon State or Washington State because neither offer any value.

California and Stanford also isn't any good either.

So it's either has to be Washington or Oregon? :shrug:

I would think Oregon would opt for the Big Ten, so Washington is my guess.

That would be a massive get for the Big 12... I wonder if the Big 10 has shut the door on Washington and Oregon because that was their rumored destination for a while now.

UConn will be #14 with Colorado.

I think Arizona, Arizona State, Utah and Colorado are the "four corner schools". All of those schools are expected to become Big 12 members eventually. Colorado is starting the domino. But the tweet says something about an additional unexpected school.....perhaps Washington or Oregon if they know they aren't getting a Big Ten invite.

I'm only speculating as this front has been very quiet for a while but consider this. If UO/UW did get B1G invite at the time, they would have done it already and we would know about it, wouldn't you think?

I'm not sure they simply got an invite because I don’t see how they can increase the per school number or even keep it where it is when it comes to the B1G pie? I don't know.

Hm yes time to get excited to see the cum dumpster husk of Colorado

Looks like it’s happening…

Almost has to be, at least from an athletics perspective. Arizona and ASU are the only other two that would be possible. Stanford academically would be a great fit. Cal culturally would be an absolutely awful fit.
