The real story is UT being passed by A&M as biggest athletic dept.
UTDrew6 @UTDrew6 2h2 hours ago
@MH ver3 That's a one time instance mainly due to their stadium donations. Use some real analytics and logic here dude.
MH ver3 @MH ver3 2h2 hours ago
@UTDrew6 if you'd have read on I said exactly that but you cannot deny the huge gains they have made on UT since joining sec.
UTDrew6 @UTDrew6 2h2 hours ago
@MH ver3 We're not going to base long term decisions on the yearly whims of what happens at Texas a&m. That's for DAMN sure.
UTDrew6 @UTDrew6 2h2 hours ago
@MH ver3 Nope but that doesn't mean UT is going to disrupt the conference affiliation model just because aggy is making more $.

Texas coach Charlie Strong says he favors the status quo on the issues of expansion, adding a championship game.

Randy Watts @randywatts7 17h17 hours ago
@Bluevodreal @CGreen63 any chance at all Texas and/or Oklahoma gets an invite?
Bluevod @Bluevodreal 17h17 hours ago
@randywatts7 @CGreen63 yes I know they want Texas BAD and told Okl would come as well. Not sure Texas will say yes. ND head fake ? 4 UT?
Dan Harmsen @DL_Harmsen 15h15 hours ago
@Bluevodreal @randywatts7 @CGreen63 B12 GOR is too strong. A lot of B12 sources talking about weak ACC GOR too. A few years ago maybe.
Corneilus Green @CGreen63 15h15 hours ago
@DL_Harmsen @Bluevodreal @randywatts7 I don't see Texas or Oklahoma leaving the Big 12 unless it's for the Pac-12
Randy Watts @randywatts7 8h8 hours ago
@CGreen63 @DL_Harmsen @Bluevodreal why the the Pac-12 over Big 10?
Bluevod @Bluevodreal 5h5 hours ago
@randywatts7 @CGreen63 @DL_Harmsen I do not see it either Texas that is. Okl wants in but will not without Texas.
UHCougar07 @UHCougar07 5h5 hours ago
@Bluevodreal FSU to the BigXII? Maybe that is why expansion is reported to be on hold?
Bluevod @Bluevodreal 4h4 hours ago
@UHCougar07 FSU is indeed in play. But to who? They I am told will be the first Domino.
Bluevod @Bluevodreal 4h4 hours ago
Rumors starting to come out but all are guessing schools. They have done great job of keeping quiet. fsu,nc,gt,nc still front. ND? inplay
Bluevod @Bluevodreal 3h3 hours ago
@Bluevodreal I'll add NBC is being a player in talks.
Dooley @DooleyMcStitch 2h2 hours ago
@Bluevodreal UConn?
Bluevod @Bluevodreal 41m41 minutes ago
@DooleyMcStitch not to the Big10. Maybe ACC after the dominos.
C.L.H. @calluke1 6m6 minutes ago
@Bluevodreal @DooleyMcStitch no big 12 for huskies?
Dooley @DooleyMcStitch 1m1 minute ago
@calluke1 @Bluevodreal The B12 has to decide whether or not they want long-term security (expansion/TV) or implode in 5 yrs (do nothing).
Bluevod @Bluevodreal 2m2 minutes ago
@calluke1 @DooleyMcStitch maybe I think uconn brings a lot to the table for both. NY market.
Dooley @DooleyMcStitch 6m6 minutes ago
@Bluevodreal @calluke1 Agreed. It's too bad UConn isn't AAU. Sandwiching NYC and exposure into New England could've been great for B1G.
Bluevod @Bluevodreal 7m7 minutes ago
@DooleyMcStitch @calluke1 I'm told that is not so much a deal breaker now.
Dooley @DooleyMcStitch 3m3 minutes ago
@Bluevodreal @calluke1 Maybe not. ND hockey was a start and if what you're saying about FSU is true. Either way, UConn needs movement.
Tom @TommyNole 3h3 hours ago
@Bluevodreal in other words, I'm skeptical that so many people can keep a secret this big for this long. This would involve a lot of folks.
Bluevod @Bluevodreal 3h3 hours ago
@TommyNole partly because it is fluid and you don't talk about a deal until it is done. JD has openly said are open for business talks on.
Mitch Green @MitchWGreen 3h3 hours ago
@Bluevodreal did you mean to list "nc" twice? or is one NC State? Also, is VA being discussed?
Bluevod @Bluevodreal 3h3 hours ago
@MitchWGreen no meant UVA has one.
BrewDog @BrewDog44 1h1 hour ago
@Bluevodreal will ACC backfill with AAC teams or will B12 take rest of ACC?
Bluevod @Bluevodreal 44m44 minutes ago
@BrewDog44 that is the big Question. What do they do...I have heard Big12 may poach some of the remaining but not specific school yet.
BrewDog @BrewDog44 20m20 minutes ago
@Bluevodreal have heard B12 wants FSU or Miami plus Clemson if 4 other ACC teams go B1G. Then ACC reloads with AAC schools.
Bluevod @Bluevodreal 1m1 minute ago
@BrewDog44 I was told today by former FSU prez if he had to guess as of now FSU to big10
Bluevod @Bluevodreal 3h3 hours ago
Why quiet? ACC and none of the network want this public now. No advantage even the Big10 needs it quiet for now.
Corneilus Green @CGreen63 3h3 hours ago
@Bluevodreal Why would the ACC want this quiet? They're the one being raided
Bluevod @Bluevodreal 2h2 hours ago
@CGreen63 becasue at this point they are hanging on by a legal thread if and when it leaks the Dam breaks.
Corneilus Green @CGreen63 2h2 hours ago
@Bluevodreal I think the GOR has no teeth. It's just a maneuver to keep schools from leaving
Bluevod @Bluevodreal 2h2 hours ago
@CGreen63 FSU Lawyers have already declared that and FSU is inplay. Does the ACC now file suit? They lose either way.
Corneilus Green @CGreen63 2h2 hours ago
@Bluevodreal It would be poetic justice. They ended the Big East and Big 10 could end the ACC with Big 12 and SEC taking the rest
OleRog @OleRog 3h3 hours agoMidland, TX
@Bluevodreal ????? Usurping more teams?
Bluevod @Bluevodreal 2h2 hours ago
@OleRog The goal has always been 6 to make 20 team league. Would they settle with 4 and 16 yes if it is not a good deal.
Tom @TommyNole 1h1 hour ago
@Bluevodreal there would just be so many people directly involved. Somebody would have loose lips (accidentally or intentionally).
Bluevod @Bluevodreal 1h1 hour ago
@TommyNole well some are talking they are telling me and a couple others. Family friend former prez
@FSU says it on.

@DooleyMcStitch @Bluevodreal @calluke1 I've heard UConn is on path to AAU membership in the next 10 years
Bluevod @Bluevodreal 6m6 minutes ago
@UConn6thBorough @DooleyMcStitch @calluke1 right now 4 sound very close UVA,NC GT FSU with ND in play you would need a 6th maybe Uconn
Dooley @DooleyMcStitch 6m6 minutes ago
@Bluevodreal @UConn6thBorough @calluke1 A group of PSU, ND, RU, UConn and the other B1G alumni camps would seal up NYC & Boston for B1G.
Bluevod @Bluevodreal 28s28 seconds ago
@DooleyMcStitch @UConn6thBorough @calluke1 I would like it. I just have never heard uconn to big10 but many names still quiet on purpose.
