The plan that has been rumored is plucking away the Big East best basketball brands. But that really creates an unwieldy league so not sure.

I hope that isn’t the end game. I don’t think the Big East is our long-term home, but I don’t want to kill it either (though I will take some joy watching the Friars get punted to the curb).

Big 12 meeting is over for the day, so Dave Benedict retweeted this:

 

[HailUConn]

There is definitely more than just smoke

 

[WestHartHusk]

Colorado and…

This would be amazing if it was broken by a KSU student.

 

[LBird33]

Need to call the car wash guy to verify

Some of you clowns scoffed when I said it is too quiet for something not to be happening. AD Dave would be publicly lowering expectations big time if they’re wasn't something serious under consideration. Fingers crossed.

Clowns? Give names!

August West comes to mind insofar as conference talk is concerned.

The opposite would be a lot easier to do.

Even if the four border schools are taken from the Pac12, UConn may still get into the B12. Right now, there are so many rumors and noise getting reported. But at least UConn's name is getting mentioned.

and prior to the past few months UConn was primarily mentioned as only going to ACC. Even a few years ago when practically the entire AAC tried to get in to the Big 12 no one in the national media mentioned UConn seriously.

The new big 12 commissioner wants UConn, but the previous commissioner didn't. That's why UConn vaulted to the top of the list.

This in non-key. Lambert is the Dude of WV, right? And hoops only is a non-starter.

 

[NowInStorrs]

Is that a legit source? Why would we do that? Pass.

 

[UConn Dan]

Hahah no

 

[Chin Diesel]

Calling BS on that one.

 

[Huskyforlife]

If they wanna pay us like an all sports member, sure…

Sorry, still newish here. Moving it over to non-key.

 

[HailUConn]

Not sure how credible the source is.

 

[HailUConn]

From the same guy, this actually makes lots of sense.

 

[Hoophound]

From the same guy, this actually makes lots of sense.

He’s guessing. Too many different declarations over 48 hours. He has no idea.

 

[uconnbaseball]

“UCon”

Probably not too credible.

 

[CashewCrew]

I might be smoking something but…
Colorado, UConn, Gonzaga, Villanova.

Gonzaga and Nova would be as a non-football pair to assure each other it’s feasible. Two biggest brands in the Big East get to stay together. Gonzaga gets one of it’s WCC rivals back in BYU. Big12 doesn’t have to give full revenue share with Zags/Nova which helps with the overall financial picture. Big12 now has media markets that dip into NYC and Philly and are truly a national conference like the B10 will be. What do you think?

 

[calamity17]

Not sure if this belongs in non-key, but can’t imagine many people would be flying that route. Just so happens to be where the Big 12 meetings are for those not aware.

Of course not.

I think it's key. Re-post it in Key Tweets.

You can call me Ray, or you can call me Jay .........................

Not a legit source. Just a guy who lives in his mom’s basement

I was waiting for flight stalking news and it could be good news!

Auggy a clown? Maybe that explains this sign...

Then again, it also lists a flight from Teterboro, NJ, so does that mean that Rutgers is joining the Big 12?
