John E. Hoover: #Big12 needs to do something, but it just can’t right now

"But Texas Tech president Duane Nellis already announced in January that he was leaving, and the departure last month of Kansas State president Kirk Schulz for Washington State — Schulz was chairman of the Big 12 board of directors — has slowed any talk of expansion or a league network or a championship football game.

What’s the urgency? The ACC last week announced its 2014-15 revenue and joined the SEC, Big Ten and Pac-12 as conferences with more than $400 million income. The Big 12, at last report, was around $260 million.

The Big 12 has to do something or will continue to be regarded as, like Boren said, a little brother.

However, with a dumpster fire like Baylor burning out of control, deciding what to do with the Longhorn Network or measuring the merits of BYU versus Cincinnati versus Connecticut seems almost trivial in comparison."
