No, I'm not thrilled.
I'd rather go back to the original Big12, but that ain't happening.

There's no question all of this is bad, on balance, for the whole nation in terms of college football.
The Big Ten and the SEC are better off, but everyone else is worse. PAC 12 will either collapse or become a mid major type conference. The Big 12 took in some refugees who didn't have options from bigger conferences, but the Big 12 is not better off than before realignment began.
Nobody is winning here except the handful of elite schools in the 2 power conferences. It's not better for 90% of D1, it's definitely not better for fans, not better for the sport in general.
Of course, the people whose pockets are lined by all of this are the ones calling for the votes.
