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

I like it and I think he is from KC? BBQ there is fantastic and not just the renown ones. Short end or long end dry rub ribs. Short end are meatier.

KC area BBQ beats Texas for everything but Brisket. None of the southern states are as good, but there is good Q all over.

Wouldn’t we have seen the same type of meeting for UConn if this was happening for us to?

I'm not going to pretend to know. I am just stating fact that after today's closed session, there is a special board meeting by the CU Board of Regents for Friday at 10am EST. Having heard today's was about realignment then it makes sense that Friday's will be for a vote. Also look at CU's prior announcement and how the days aligned from meeting to announcement. Colorado joining BIG12 is a key part of what happens next.

Maybe UConns decision is already made.

Does the BOT have to hold a public vote to approve? I forgot how it happened moving to the Big East.

 

[Fishy]

If he’s retweeting swa I m (who is nonkey) can this be key? Is mike Vernon reliable?

He’s not.

Not even in the orbit of reliable.

Next scheduled BOT meeting is June 28th.

Just out of curiosity, Why does CU "need" to go first? Curious as to the rationale?

Nobody wants the be the school that broke up the Pac-12 so Colorado becomes the scapegoat if they leave first.

Because if Colorado isn't coming, they aren't doing it at all. I think people underestimate just how important it is for them to have a school that left come back. We know that none of the others will.

They’re the one the Big 12 members and leaders really want - we’re just nice to have.

Also, the Big 12 and PAC-12 are basically positioned to raid eachother at any time post-Texas/OU. Although Big 12 is now strong due to TV and AAC adds, a show of strength to potentially implode one’s competitor opens the door to add more schools

Mora's tweets make UConn's decision pretty obvious, we are going if offered, as we should. Not a difficult decision at all.

 

[Bongo Fury]

Hopefully they can stay healthy and win it all this coming season. It'll be another opportunity for a UConn basketball team to cut down nets in April in front of a national audience.

I do too although I don’t follow closely. I meant that viewership for WBB as a sport is increasing. At least that’s what I’ve heard. More talk about LSU, SC and Iowa or IowaSt? Than UConn.

It's UConn fatigue.

Is this a pre-requisite for membership?

Notice it's all beef. People who take that class then need an upper level one at UMKC for Pork and Chicken.

Dennis Dodd talks about Yormark's plan for the Northeast. Says there could be some sort of tournament at MSG.

Maybe for SEC since it's A&M.

I’m all for a move to the Big XII for financial reasons, but having our conference tourney in Kansas City depresses me.

Are you one of the guys that always went or went often to MSG for the tournament? If so i do feel for you and others. That is a big deal.

 

[jostar1]

If we get invited to the Big 12, I think part of the deal would be that we agree to play a certain amount of games at MSG.

I'm not so sure. MSG i think is a hard and expensive place to get into.

Nobody in the Big 12 cares about MSG. Not many people outside metro NY have any kind of reverence for it. We would never play league games there.

 

[Stinger92860]

I don't know why the Big 12 would want two Arizona schools.

2 from Utah and 2 from Arizona

Well, we're going to be playing Gonzaga there.
