Disagree that no B12 invite would be a kick to the nuts or somehow worse than previous times. Unlike past times, the school is not in dire need of a move and a move to the B12 would be a good but imperfect solution. UConn is not on a sinking ship in football and certainly is not in basketball. Independent is also imperfect, but is a viable option for the near future. It's also apparent that any move made by the B12 now would not be the final round of moves in the coming years.

Quick highlights: mentions the interest in the four corner schools is gone?
—Previously, it was believed the Big 12 was interested in not only Colorado but the other so-called "Four Corners" schools from the Pac-12: Arizona, Arizona State and Utah. However, that interest appears to have subsided.

UConn and Gonzaga mentioned but not heavily

I don’t feel this is as big of a disaster when we missed out on the Acc. We still have the BE for bball and football was ok as in Indy so far. Have till the Acc GOR runs out to get football looking good.

Let go man, it’s over.
lol im the one who just got flamed for saying it wouldnt be horrible if we don't get an invite. im only saying here that in the end CU wont be the only team added. gun to my head, we don't get an invite and they bring over 1-3 more Pac schools. this would not be the end of the world for UConn.

Colorado is leaving the Pac-12 to return to the Big 12, sources told Action Network.

The Buffaloes will formally apply for Big 12 membership on Thursday, when the Big 12’s Board of Directors will approve the Buffs to begin Big 12 play in 2024, sources said.

An announcement is expected Thursday, pending official approval from the school’s Board of Regents, a source said. CU’s Board of Regents will meet for a second consecutive day on Thursday from 5-6 p.m. ET.

Colorado’s departure for the Big 12 could start an exodus of more Pac-12 schools to the Big 12, sources said. The most likely candidates are Arizona, Arizona State and Utah.

Arizona president Robert Robbins met with Yormark in Houston during the Final Four, sources said. Officials at Arizona State and Utah also have had informal conversations with Big 12 representatives and officials, sources said.

The only hope we have is B12 wants a more eastern presence vs. all West Coast. After all, I am sure Cincy, WVU, and UCF have something to be said about that. If UCONN has already been approved pro-rata, we should be an easy add to balance out the conference with all the PAC-12 schools.

That would be our angle indeed

Let's think positively regarding this: why would B12 add a second Arizona team is Arizona is in? It makes no sense to the TV networks if they can UCONN on the East Coast vs. a second Arizona team. The same can be said for UTAH when B12 already has BYU. Let's hope these B12 presidents think of the bigger picture vs. just adding schools because they got the P5 label. According to multiple sources, UCONN has already been approved by the media partners to be paid pro-rata for the media deal. If that's true, we should be evaluated on equal footing with rest of the PAC-12 teams.
