Yeah, I get that theres a whole lot of people in the Northeast that don't care about college football (present company excluded of course)

Are you calling for me to be banned from the site for posting sourced data? I've taken a lot more criticism than I've doled out too. We realize that we may get shut out because of Sunday play or people thinking we're weird religious people. I can pretty much promise that you like most of the...

Nice google search with cherry-picking an article written by the MWC that still feels spurned that we left them for independence. First off, our last Bowl game 3.575 million viewers ... a HUGE jump for the LV Bowl, so your claim is incorrect. College Football TV Ratings — Sports Media Watch...

You're completely insane and rather asinine in your analysis. Downright offensive at other points. Propaganda? Scientology? You want me to change all my data sheets and re-calculate everything because of your re-ranking of your media market size? Even if it's accurate, that's a lot of...

Four top candidates ... Cinci, UConn, Colorado State, BYU ... Interesting on the CSU inclusion.

Yeah ... move to Utah! It's all the rage. Growth galore for decades on end. :) (I say as I type from Tuscaloosa, Alabama)

I wish we had a fellow regional team with the CR resume of UConn. It would be a done deal already. Boise is great in Football ... and that's about it. They has a horrible media market and are essentially a community college level academically. CSU is solid on academics, but lacks a fanbase...

I had a bad link in there about the Academic stack up ... this one should work.

Well, first off, I don't think the Big12 Expansion committee cares one bit about how many MLB players were drafted. Baseball?!? It's also very selective on the time frame. Some of the figures start at 2000, others at 2003 & 2004. Yet ALL of those capture the "heyday" of UConn Football while...

Sunday play is an absolute "no go" for our institution. If that is what keeps us out then we are fine staying Indy/WCC. You seem to be couching it as us making "Unreasonable Demands" on the conference, but that is not what we are all about. One of our 13 "Articles of Faith" (the 11th)...

You're way too kind and level-headed for a sports-board Dooley! I'll try to address your points. So here's the link to the spreadsheet that takes the 4 most-discussed candidates (some would trade UCF for Houston though) and compares our Fan bases/Alumni bases to the current Big12 members. I...

Boy ... guess we need to insert a new sarcasm meter in you my friend. You're is totally broken.

Oh ... we're plenty well-off. Actually, if BYU and UConn were added to the Big12 we would be #1 (BYU at $57,400) and #2 (UConn at $53,900) in "Median Salary After Attending" (above even vaunted current Top Dog Texas @ $52,800)...

And here's a few more data sheets potentially relevant to my response above.
