Yormark is smart. That doesn't mean that the people he works for are going to be willing to expand their thought process enough to see beyond football.
I have difficulty believing the folks at Stanford want to associate themselves with Iowa State, Texas Tech, and Central Florida in any meaningful context.
The Big 12 schools do not want us.
Here is to 11 miserable more!
Perhaps, but if someone asks me "where did your 50's go?" I can show them this thread.
Our appearance here is evidence enough many of us don’t have a life.
I feel like I'm slowly watching our athletic department sign a death certificate. Not immediately, but in 10-15 years?
But this doesn’t mean they don’t need UConn. They probably held their noses when voting in UCF, but there they are.

In that same spirit none of this is important then.
Would they? What would CBS pay for a 64 team tournament composed of all 64 P3 teams?
B1G has already moved past 16. Only a matter of time until XII and SEC do the same. ACC is still only at 14 (+1). Is the ACC supposed to sit around waiting to be poached?
They'll wait for the Texas schools and Kansas if they were smart. Alas.

I look at the BY as being more interesting, stimulating and relevant than Sudoku or crossword puzzles for my aging brain.
Do they prefer associating with Fresno, Boise, and Wyoming?
, why the snark?
If everyone else has ceded the East Coast to them, then there is zero need to further divide the pie. That said, particularly with the ACC, they'll do whatever ESPN tells them to do as long as ESPN is willing to back it with cash.
We all agree with you 100%. In the short term.
