I think they will sit on their hands for a bit before making any moves. Don't be surprised if they do something stupid like add SMU and Houston, or some dumb **** like that. Fox sports was pushing the BIG 12 to go for the Florida teams before the season started, but Texas may not be that smart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basketball and Football are always solid. Memphis and Houston would be the most likely scenarios for next two. BYU is in a third time zone which will scare the BIG 12 away, and our outside chance on an invite would be tied to an on campus stadium agreement. Either way, I don't see a scenario with us getting in without the BIG 12 going to 14 teams which I don't think they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same saturated market with 4 teams already from Texas. No new viewers to the the Longhorn Network because everybody in Texas already has access to it. Only logical choice is to expand to the east. Break into SEC/ACC markets and get more people paying the $$$ to watch the LHN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No disrespect to the couple of Bulls that live out there, but that is the original CFC (cousin ****** country), those family trees out there offer no shade. Texas is living in the past and they're a primadona school. Their heads are too far up their asses to see clearly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no reason they won't do it again considering how well Houston has performed and the upward trajectory of their program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinci for WVU, USF/UCF for ESPN and Houston for whoever thinks they are a good idea.That way when Texas and Oklahoma bolt for the Pac16 or the Big16 they wouldn't have to expand again.

I get why you think UH doesn't make sense, but I honestly think it's Cincy, Memphis, Houston, USF/UCF in that order. Like I said, just my conjecture. I believe our invite (if it ever came) would be tied to the requirement of building an OCS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
