*****The Super, Mega, Huge Big 12 Expansion Thread*****

[Incyte]

Sounds like the ACC may get poached. Florida State to SEC. The guy who runs the Scout A&M website, said he heard Duke and North Carolina's names being mentioned with the Big 12......this was per a radio interview on KXNO.

Duke and UNC to SEC - not B12. You misheard.

Can you imagine the Duke football team in the SEC. :twitcy:

Just heard two interesting names that could be in the Big 12's sights.... BYU and Louisville. #conferenceexpansion

Sounds like the Big East is in the same precarious situation we are in (if FSU goes, then the ACC needs a team). Maybe we can coax Pitt to come over? Would be a nice get if BYU isn't interested. Get us some exposure in the east.

I think BYU would be the best option. Anyone see rumors of discussion on a BYU site?

They seem generally positive about a potential BXII invite.

If true who would the 3rd team be to get back to 12 teams?

They ought to be. Those are two prime choices.

I like this idea.

My source is saying that the 3rd team in Notre Dame ...

 

[gocubs2118]

Just reading some of the stuff on twitter, it sure sounds like the Big XII is at least looking into adding another school. Which I think is a good thing.

Lol if he's just now hearing those names.

Notre Dame, of course.

DeLoss Dodds and ESPN come in to the meeting with BYU, ND and Louisville like Oprah.

YOU GET A NEW NETWORK! AND YOU GET A NEW NETWORK! EVERYONE GETS A NEW NETWORK!!!!

They better add more than one. And Dan Beebe better do more than just talk about how great Texas is.

 

[CarrollCyclone]

The Big 12 should add BYU, TCU and Louisville or Colorado State.

 

[im4cyclones]

Add one to keep the tier 2 contract we just signed. Any more than that and you have to be damn well sure they add to the conference. We don't want to slice a pie up 12 ways if it doesn't get any bigger than it was with 10.

Lets not get crazy. Be strategic and don't **** this up. There is too much money at stake.

Not colorado state. that brings absolutely nothing.

I'm still holding out for Loras.......or Wartburg if that doesn't work.
