Texas will you be in the ACC is number 16 just like Notre Dame now is 15 as a Quasi Indy or in the b1g conference, imo

ACC works because the Longhorn Network in ESPN NFL games against tech and TCU Baylor

UT only danced with the ACC in an attempt to gain leverage to force the PAC to accept the LHN. There is ZERO chance any school from the states of Texas or Oklahoma will join the ACC. Might as well join the MWC to face similar SOS.

The MWC offers less money and exposure.

I checked his account, and it all looks like unbiased objective statements to me.

Eventually all of this greed will decimate the national fanbase.  The more exclusive they make the national championship process, the less fans they will have.  I am a USF fan, and I'm not going to pi

Everyone involved in managing our pathetic program over the past 10 years should be fired out of a cannon into the bay.

LandThieves â€@LandThieves 1h

If D4 leagues can offer 7 Big12 teams a home.. Well the league can disband without penalty. GOR or not

Yep. I've never understood why people think a GOR means nothing can happen. The B12 schools got together and agreed to the GOR, they can get together and agree to abolish it.
I thought it needed 8 schools

But if B1G took Tex, OU, Kansas, and Mizzou (I think Kansas to importa to pass out because of basketball)

WVU, OSU to SEC with Kst replacing Mizzou

PAC take TCU, Tech, Baylor and BYU

Big 12 is dead in 5-7 Years and what I believe happens when B1G goes to 20 when their contract is up

Texas tried twice to move 5 than 4 of the Texoma schools to the PAC for good reasons. Regional rivalries and easy/close travel for student athletes matter to UT...maybe more than money...maybe. Why would UT join a conference located in the fading/bankrupt rustbelt, with many schools located far from airports, terrible winter weather, no history with UT, no recruiting advantages, and no rivals?

Dolla dolla bills yo!

If you look at individual game ticket prices, Tech and A&M have always been the highest priced tickets in Austin for good reason and no other schools come close. Y'all fail to take into account the MANY variables schools must consider about changing conferences. With the poor airport access to many B1G schools and terrible winter weather, the odds of UT athletes missing classes increases by 50% for each trip in the B1G compared to Big 12 schools. UT studied this issue and found it unacceptable.

 

 

Yeah, they are worried about kids missing classes.

State schools banding together to keep the money in the state?  Wish Miami and FSU would consider.

 

Though, I still don't see how Houston would add to the B12

Being told today that several members of both the MWC and the AAC participated in clandestine activities over the past few days.

 

Being told there is a strong desire for those that met to form their own new conference.

 

Schools that had representation there that I know: UH, USF, SDSU, BSU, Uconn, and ECU. There more there but those are the only I can confirm

Seriously? San Diego to Boise to Houston to Tampa to Greenville to Storrs

I think that ship has sailed

Well if there's one thing I think all these "insiders" can agree on, it's that things are happening right now...and that realignment is not over.
