    I don't understand the concept of Cincinnati being WVU's "travel partner." Do they intend to share plane rides and split hotels with WVU or something? What benefit does having a conference member close to WVU bring to the other conference members? More importantly, how does it benefit UT? Would the other conference members really try to appease WVU by putting somebody else out there on their island? It's not like WVU has the option to leave.  That was made obvious prior to their admittance into the B12. 

    I too have long wondered this but I think I've figured it out. It has nothing to do with football. It just means for relatively smaller sports like basketball or tennis you can take a road trip and knock out two games when traveling up to WVU. You would then stay overnight and go play a Cincinatti (or whoever)

    RE: Sun Herald: Could Big 12 expansion send USM to AAC?

    Now SI is getting into the talk...they have 5. BYU, 4. Memphis 3. Houston 2. Cincinnati and laughingly 1. USF

    The bold play I think for the Big XII is go ahead and get 4 teams (the report said their analytics researched up to 16 teams).

    For funsies I'll have them taking Cincy, Houston UCF and USF

    This will give all the P5 the membership they want (for a while); the MAC AAC CUSA and Sunbelt then could reconstitute logically.

    Zero % chance of logic breaking out.
