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

I'm feeling pessimistic but you're being a bit of a drama queen. Besides things ended in 2012, when UL got picked, of course we won a men's basketball title after that.
We won a title with an experienced team who remained loyal to a program post realignment. The 2014 title does nothing to support that argument.

Sure, let's ignore that we also did it with a 2nd year coach who was hired post realignment.

All I'm saying let's wait to see how things shake out. I was probably among the most bummed out, finger pointing at warde and Herbst, when Louisvile got picked ahead of us. If no one from the conference gets picked we have more time. If four teams,get picked and we don't go, were fawked.

We aren't ignoring that, we are simply keeping things well within context.

You can't have it both ways. You can't claim that the 2014 title does nothing to support we'll be ok post-realignment because the majority of the players were recruited pre-realignment, then not acknowledge that the coach was hired post-realignment.

That's context.

The two consultants, Navigate and BHV, have gone into the meeting room, presumably to give their presentations to the Big 12 presidents.

So this is the part where they tell them UConn adds the most value and then they disregard it and add Houston.

The coach was on the staff pre-realignment and an internal hire. That is context. Hiring KO still doesn't support your argument.
 
I'm not ashamed to admit the prospect of even worse FB schedules would cause me to reconsider the allocation of time required to attend FB games in person.

This is a very important day for UConn athletics as a whole. We may end up somewhere better than the current AAC, but the clock will be ticking louder than ever.
 
Best case it is an interim step, worst case it is a reconsideration of the whole athletic department minus hoops, hockey, soccer and field hockey, baseball, softball

Hiring a first time head coach who wins a National Title in year 2 doesn't matter? Oooookkkkkaayyyy...

Consultants BHV and Navigate have concluded their presentations and left the room. Big 12 presidents now talking amongst themselves.

And the moment of truth is here. Vote for maximum market reach and best future media deal - then vote for some combination with UConn or vote for best culture fit and smaller future revenues - vote other school.

Exactly, just like the schools.

Thank you, X, for participating in the process. We admit that your input meant nothing, but you helped to put on one heck of a show, and we appreciate that.

You performed admirably, representing your motherland well, and we'll be sure to keep your resume "on file" for future reference.

Be sure to have a good day now, and don't let the door...

-The Big 12

Yep, saw where it started on twitter: kid says he was told by his boss to cut these out for a backdrop for "something big" tonight.

I doubt they would be using the logo if they didn't get consent. Probably them and either UH or BYU

So now we are at the point where the work-study print dude is breaking CR news?

Hey, leads for stories come from all different places.

Really though, it's totally plausible. Not saying I'm sold but the guy making the banner for the backdrop is just as likely to break something as anyone else.
