Key tweets, and it's all gone to Hell.

“What is the likelihood of making it to the (College Football Playoff), and looking at various scheduling alternatives, with a (title) game, without a (title) game, eight-game schedule, nine-game schedule,” Bowlsby said. “We looked at a lot of different permutations.

“They ran 40,000 examples of potential schedules, and they came out with percentages on all of them.”

I wonder if that consultant modeled the chances of current Big 12 teams making it to the playoffs in a P4 model

#Cincy, #UConn to #Big12 look like the only well-rounded options available. Sizable media markets, competitive football, attractive hoops.

BYU won't schedule Sunday games and West Va needs more eastern opponents. UCF/USF offer recruiting ground in FL, but weak in most sports.

Kevin Gehl ‏@KevinGehlTV Feb 1
#UConn should just open a satellite office in Irving, TX to be in Big 12's face every day. The American looks like slow death right now.

Kevin Gehl ‏@KevinGehlTV Feb 1
@Sheehan_Sports: Compare Memphis and UConn side-by-side and there's no argument for Memphis other than "closer to Big 12 footprint."

@KevinGehlTV in terms of what, money? Or athletic success and such?

That's good he's championing us because in their most recent blog post conferenceexpansion.com didn't even have us as a top 5 desirable candidate for the Big XII. Their top 5?

1. Cincinnati
2. Memphis
3. BYU
4. UCF/USF
5. UCF/USF

We weren't even mentioned in the entire post.

That is good news, especially from the same guy that was tweeting all afternoon yesterday that the Big 12 had no interest in expanding or doing anything.

If expansion was dead, Shulz would have said so.

That's it from #Big12 meetings. 30 minutes. David Boren "deferred to the commissioner" on future league comments.

Not sure that's Key. And it's definitely not a tweet.

George Schroeder ‏@GeorgeSchroeder · 39m39 minutes ago
Look, y’all, (BIG) IF Big 12 one day expand/title game/network, they all take time. Bowlsby is right: “There’s just no quick way to do it."

George Schroeder ‏@GeorgeSchroeder · 35m35 minutes ago
K-State's Kirk Schulz: "We want that 10-0 vote” on those big issues. (Cosmetically, that’s how it’ll happen. But it’ll be the vast majority)

George Schroeder ‏@GeorgeSchroeder · 34m34 minutes ago
Schulz: “All 10 CEOs are open to the idea of looking at the no. of schools, conference championship game or what a network would look like.”

George Schroeder ‏@GeorgeSchroeder · 34m34 minutes ago
Schulz cautioned it doesn’t mean any of those things will happen.

George Schroeder ‏@GeorgeSchroeder · 28m28 minutes ago
Bob Bowlsby: Presidents haven’t discussed (and didn’t Friday) candidates for expansion. (Not that anyone expected it—it’s highly unlikely.)

George Schroeder ‏@GeorgeSchroeder · 18m18 minutes ago
To sum up: Big 12 presidents still studying all sorts of things, but will use ‘1-voice’ policy (commissioner Bob Bowlsby). … See you in May.

My sense coming out of today is that if Boren pops off again in the coming weeks, some trust will be lost from the rest of the Big 12

OU prez David Boren left Big 12 meetings without coming near a tape recorder or microphone. Clock ticking.

No, but I was responding to a "key tweet."

You realize your response, too, is also neither key nor a tweet, right, Kettle?

I didn't mean to discredit your post. Just meant I don't know if that site is legit enough to be considered Key. The tweet part was unnecessary.

Never in my wildest dreams could have imagined South Carolina women's basketball tickets selling for more than USC-Clemson football tickets.

Reserved seats for USC-UConn women's basketball on stubhub for between $231-$404. College football national title tickets started at $120.

People want to root for winners.

When it comes to Uconn WBB and realignment at the very least you can be assured you'll at least sellout a game every year maybe build a new wing of your fan base and a new revenue stream.
