Seems to me the B12 should snap up the best of the AAC (USF, UCiF, UConn, and Cincy) before the B1G expands and takes the best of the ACC.  If that happens ACC expands with the best of the AAC and B12 is left out in the cold again, digging through scraps.

Agree. Time for them to be proactive. They sit around and lose a school and they're in reaction mode.

As much as I would like to see USF in the B12....if we and UCF were invited....I am fairly confidant Texas and OU would shortly be out the door...with friends in tow.

Then you would see a new round of realignment, Notre Dame would be forced to join and there would soon be a power 4 with four 16 team conferences. 

 I think the opposite.  The Big 12 can't survive long term with just 10 teams.  The gap between them and the other P5 will only widen.  They have by far the smallest footprint of any of the P5 conferences and are not setup for either bigger contracts on cable, or for expanding on an online streaming service.  They need a bigger footprint, more markets, and a wider conference fan-base.

We need to work on improving our season ticket holder base beyond next season, which will likely have a bump up due to the FSU game at Ray Jay.

We don't have an OCS or IPF. Something that UCF, FAU, UF, and FSU all have.

"So. Meeting over. Not sure what the headline is today. Lots of nebulous, indecisive, consultation-type stuff, but zero decisions. #Big12"

    "For me, I never considered it that way (as a stepping stone), honestly. When I was offered the head job at South Florida, and I'm sincere about this, I never thought I would ever go anywhere."
