I am headed back to Florida at the end of the week for a check up on my cancer.

Hope all is or will be well, Billy.

Thanks guys....hard to kick cancer's ass...it just bides its time, waiting for when you think things are going well. Frickin' evil stuff.

I have a great team...oncologist and the best radiation folks on the planet. I hope this check up shows no metastastic cancer...what we call NED (No Evidence of Disease).

Hope it shows NED as well Bud!

BTW, my daughter starts at FSU in the Fall.

I dealt with cancer over the summer so I feel for you. Hope the prognosis is good. Keep us posted.

Me too ...malignant melanoma..

Odd since the victory parade in Hartford for the UConn women's basketball team made the 6 PM news on ABC 7 in NYC the other day...

They have given very positive coverage to both UConn men and women this year on channel 7 at 6pm, especially highlights of the women's games in the tourney, and not only the final four. Very pro UConn reporting.

I am headed back to Florida at the end of the week for a check up on my cancer. I will talk to a BOT member that I occasionally talk with and see if the FSU rumors have any legs....I suspect that they do not.

FSU doesn't play straight re public records though...There is a Florida public information request that has been in since last July re a copy of the GOR. The administration has returned that they only have the signature page on record (really?).

A lawyer who is also a fan found that remarkable and six months ago filed a request for any correspondence or email related to the GOR or the media contract. He has been stiff armed so far and is about to file suit.

Good luck

@MH ver3 70k in football? Cmon, I call bullshit on this.

MH ver3 ‏@MH ver3 Apr 14
@UTDrew6 no bullshit. The stadium was built to be expanded up to 70k if needed.

UTDrew6 ‏@UTDrew6 Apr 15
@MH ver3 Well it won't be needed. There aren't 70k UCONN football fans in the entire world. They're not coming to Big 12.

@UTDrew6 and if they do how will you feel about it?

Had that in 2009 along with lung cancer, 2nd time and a stroke within 4 months. I'm a tough ol broad. 2015 had Moh surgery at Yale for cancer so rare that they only know it's cancer but not sure what kind. This one beat me up physically pretty bad. Mentally draining too.

Well wishes to everyone battling cancer, but lets get back to what is truly important. Discussing the ramblings of crazy people.

@UConn6thBorough @GregMadia don't read too much into it. All the data hasn't even been presented yet.

@UConn6thBorough @GregMadia still meeting in early June to go over the data.

@UConn6thBorough Gee isn't pompous like Boren. He isn't out airing dirty laundry. He is towing the company line.

Storrs South ‏@UConn6thBorough 33m33 minutes ago
@MH ver3 appreciate the insight. Only time will tell once the B12 talks the data over

MH ver3 ‏@MH ver3 Protected Tweets 1d1 day ago
@UConn6thBorough @GregMadia Gee is technically correct. Expansion is on hold-until after the meetings.

I warned everyone the Big 12 was dysfunctional.

@theDudeofWV Who could've guessed a conference that had 1/3 of its member schools leave would be dysfunctional?

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV 4h4 hours ago
@popmurtha you would think a conf that lost 1/3 of its members would stop being dysfunctional.

@HarryHareBear good article. Yes talks are VERY serious and everyone is trying to keep it quiet. Lawyers believe ACC GOR has no teeth.

Cincinnati fan here.....Cincinnati and UCONN to the BIG12 seems like a no brainer to me. We want a BIG12 paycheck as badly as you do, but what a Cluster Mess of a conference.... You have Texas, Oklahoma, and the eight dwarfs. The dwarfs can't decide what day of the week it is, til Texas tells them. Missou, Nebraska, A&M, and Colorado all gave up 100 year old rivalries just to escape the madness. Texas has no interest in building a solid BIG12 conference, they just want to continually show the dwarfs how much bigger their schwantz is. I know Cincinnati would kill to get a BIG12 paycheck, I can't help but feel like it would be an absolute deal with the devil.

Greg Serah Williams aim ‏@GSw aim Apr 13
If #Big12 falls apart, two each go to #SEC, #B1G, #ACC, with four to #Pac12. It'll be interesting, as #UT has to lose #LHN to go anywhere.

I doubt this, but if it's true that all B12 schools find a P4 home ... then I think Texas goes independent ... which means that a tenth program from the G5 must be added to the 9 B12 schools to keep the P4 conferences at even numbers. ACC, welcome independent Texas plus WVU and UConn?

 

[Ldandy]

So much gold in these tweets. When nothing happens over the summer, I wonder if Bluevoodo will disappear or if he'll continue spinning CR Yarns like the rest of these lunatics? I guess a little attention, even from other weirdos, is intoxicating to these guys.

 

[coachcap]

Okay, my head is swimming. These lunatics keep shuffling back & forth so much between B1G & B-12 expansion, non-expansion that I can't keep track without a scorecard. OR, is that the point?

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Gee's comments seem pretty negative on expansion. Those were direct quotes, for attribution. While the championship game was not going to be a driver for UConn to be added, it seems like Gee is saying that the Big 12 has decided it is all set now that it can hold a championship game.

 

[SubbaBub]

If the B12 decides not to expand it means the LHN is dead and a B12 network has been greenlit. The CCG was always going to happen, although two 5 team divisions requires the elite teams to be consistently elite or risk it hurting their playoff chances.

I disagree. I can't imagine a B12 network comes to fruition without new markets. Unless UT reluctantly accepts in order to keep OU from leaving, that's the only way I see that working.

If you seek to maximize the benefits of a network then yes. The B12 isn't trying to do that. All they want is to create one, any one, that will add revenue and reduce the influence of Texas over the conference there by keeping OU in the fold. Leaving a few million on the table is not part of their thinking right now.

There's no way to get a Big 12 network without expansion. If expansion isn't happening, that's Texas saying they're getting out of the Big 12 as soon as they can and they'll take their LHN paycheck in the meantime
