Ummm no sorry. I don't think we want any school with Iowa in the name in the conference. I'm sure their fans would love to travel to Tampa, but what Cedar Rapids offer our fans? Tornadoes and ice storms? 

ISU is a better fit for MACtion.

Yeah and unfortunately these schools only are somewhat competitive because of the conference and not their geographic location. Without the Big 12 their footbally programs would be terrible.

I sure as hell wouldn't call Iowa State "somewhat competitive"  With the Big 12 their footbally program is ****

More stuff from Cox:

 If Big 12 does go kerplunk, will be interesting to see what secondary schools go where, as a tagalong with their sister state schools, or to American or , Mountain West.  Says Iowa State would most likely end up in the  American.  Also does Group of 5 become new college division or does CFP expand to 8?

Consider what those schools are facing.  Going from 20-30 million a year for their athletics programs, down to possibly 2 or 4 million.  Some may even end up in CUSA.  They would be begging admission from schools they thought weren't good enough for them a couple years earlier.  It is going to be hard, but they probably all assume that they would be welcomed with open arms by some other P5 conference.  I think that they will find out otherwise.

 

Go Bulls!

I'll  bake a cake and cut it into 12 slices.

Just remember to give UT and OU an extra slice each. UT may need a little something for the road should they decide to go Indy.
