I think we need to get ahold of that Mosi property before an ocs will be announced. We need to have the space for future academic growth, before we commit to building something like that.

what a waste..at least on NSD when you don't get much done, you have a bunch of recruits that signed

Is Big 12 still set for a press conference? I want to hear their explanation. Reports I have read that expansion is on hold, not necessarily done.

Of course.  These things are never definitively settled, and can change over time.

We'd be foolish to commit to an OCS while mired in a G5 conference, and with football's popularity declining and longevity in doubt.

It's over... Not even they would put themselves through this again anytime soon.

I'd agree with you in normal circumstances, but with the big 12, it's never normal

I wouldn't be surprised if the Big 12 decides to do this every year

Me neither.  So whoever answers the phone call over at USF will have to be all nice and cordial so as not to screw up our chances for next year.  In other words, can't tell them to go F themselves.
