So I just read http://abcnews.go.com/Sports/wireStory/ncaa-votes-big-12-hold-football-title-game-36275151 posted by bobbyinaz. Now I'm even more confused. They have to play a round robin and they do NOT yet have a set way to pick the teams in the CCG other than it must be the top 2 teams. Looks to me like there was no compromise the XII just won. ignore my post above...and this one too I'm over it now. Unless the expectation is that the XII will be dead soon this makes no sense. The XII now has the advantage they wanted.

Rule #1 is the only explanation...

More: ESPN source says a B12 network is impossible before the expiration of the current TV deal. LHN isn't the only issue.

Christopher Lambert@theDudeofWV
He says ESPN will not expand LHN into a Big 12 network because of the rights issues with the current deal & Fox partnership.

Christopher Lambert@theDudeofWV
And that ESPN lacks he cash for it or ACCN currently.

Christopher Lambert@theDudeofWV
Two B12 sources have verified that the other 8 members will go along with whatever UT & OU decide.

Christopher Lambert@theDudeofWV
The key now is the roadmap to expansion. If they can agree they are likely to add 2 by 2017 and 2 later.

Christopher Lambert@theDudeofWV
All believe Texas will agree that LHN has no future beyond 2025 and help OU position the B12 to expand the conf footprint.

That maybe the hook they justifies UH as a geographical addition much like UC to lessen the travel burden.

Christopher Lambert@theDudeofWV
All TBD.

I'm reading these, and nodding, and reading, and nodding, and then

That doesn't make any sense. He just makes stuff up a few times each day to keep people following.

His two sources: someone from Oklahoma and someone from UT.

Butch try the 12 steps. It didn't work for me but may for you.

I'm increasingly starting to believe Flug a bit that Dude is a raging lunatic. His hunky-dory stance is directly in opposition to the words directly from the mouth of OU's president. Who's telling the truth you think?

 

[huskypantz]

It's not that the B12 got their way and the ACC did not. It's that B12 expansion was blocked (they can now stay at 10) and ACC expansion was blocked (they cannot go to 15). So UConn is saved for the B1G.

Actually I think it is that B12 got their way and ACC did not - exactly as you said, B12 wanted to stay at 10 and can, but ACC cannot pit #1 and #2 or go to 15 with pods.

So to expand the conference footprint and get a network you add Houston?
A little while ago, he said you add UConn to get a network.

I wish there was a way to remove access to this forum from the board for me. I can't do this anymore and it's just muscle memory at this point.

The 5 stages - DABDA - it's like deja vu all over again for me.

Anyone see UConn's mascot on Good Morning America this morning? Part of the 6th boro promotional push. Guess it's more than just a sign on a billboard.

It's also a t-shirt. And a #hashtag.

That's awesome. Did you get a screengrab?

You laugh, but millions of people watch that show daily.

I wasn't watching but saw it on Facebook. Looks like some one got a screen grab of the mascot walking along the crowds of people that gather for these morning shows with that sign in the background. We may not be P5, but by god we will be in the rest the country's face one way or another. Looking forward to another such opportunity in April when our "mid-major" WBB program is winning another title.

Apropos of nothing but I found this trying to search for the 6th borough campaign, specifically what they said on GMA.

It's an FOI request on the add campaign. I'm not sure to what end, but as I said, apropos of nothing.

FWIW, the petitioner is a UConn history professor.

 

[brasssbonanzaa]

They scheduled Jonathan to go outside GMA the day after the Big 12 vote? Very well done, UConn.

Sorry to do this to you. Just wanted to point out that someone else had the same idea. Worked out OK for them (after the fact, but nonetheless a location they thought worthy).

Matthew Gauriglia...was wondering the reason for the request. A history professor, but is he a sports fan?

Guess he was at the SNY studios last night too. Go Dog.

Mind blown.
