Message: [QUOTE="don356, post: 1775480, member: 5634"] [U][B]Tramel: I don't disagree. Watering down the Big 12 would hurt recruiting even more. That's why I don't think the Big 12 will expand.[/B][/U] That quote really shows me that Tramel knows very little about football and even less about recruiting in general. Football recruiting is very, very much a crap shoot more so than other sports. There are teams year in and year out who are top 25 caliber teams who do not get the top guys. There are only a handful of real definitive difference makers at div. 1 level year in and year out. Thinking that getting their product into new markets is going to water it down is absurd as well as ignorant. The truth is that with the small scholly limits there are plenty of players to go around. Adding teams would have no watering down impact whatsoever. This is the kind of head in the sand logic that has put the b12 where it is today. [/QUOTE]
