Non-Key Tweets

LSU? LSU? We talking about LSU? LSU?

Seriously these idiots are proposing that Arkansas and LSU would LEAVE the SEC to join the Big 12. And people actually believe them.

Please see the West Virginia guys on Twitter

My thoughts for them ... gentlemen, after very careful consideration, sirs, I've come to the conclusion that your new rumors suck.

Yawn! LSU and Arkansas? The fit perfectly in the SEC and make big dollars, so naturally they're reaching out to the Big Ten. Must not be getting enough page hits or radio listeners to come up with that one.

Not even Big 10. Big 12. Don't you get it. Both leagues would have 12!

Yeah the Big 12 has 10 teams for a reason. Nobody calls them.
 
hilarious new tweets from whaler's bud mh3,

"But GOR or no GOR the big 12 realizes its not completely safe from expansion. There is still on school with a cheating heart"

"Long term plans for big12 involves expansion but short term 10 is best."

"FWIW the ACC needs only fear the B1G until they have a finalized GOR. Big 12 has no interest in any ACC school at this time"

It has been a really slow morning....plus I think mh3 is totally legit :oops:

still nothing for Uconn? Hard to believe that school with excellent academics and athletics still stuck in AAC​

when the wheels stop turning I have a feeling Uconn will be in the ACC.​

In fairness to him, he has been saying this for a long time, and has never tried to pass it off as having been "confirmed by his sources." He's actually gotten much more reasonable of late. Still overly vague and not terribly reliable, but he's not like some of the other twitter geeks throwing out anything that could be a remote possibility and seeing what sticks.
 
Big Ten's most likely targets aren't the schools likely to bolt at this time though - him and the dude seem to be pushing for Arky / LSU bolting to the Big 12 but that's more high charged fantasy than anything else.

I have a feeling in my gut that this will be the final outcome too. Makes too much sense and we fit well with the ACC North Division and would be a logical partner for Syracuse, Pitt, BC or maybe even Notre Dame or Louisville and with Syracuse we strengthen the ACC access to New York in a way that Syracuse alone simply doesn't. As I wrote elsewhere, I heard Tranghese speak very logically about the Big East strategy toward New York which most people don't understand. It is actually not a bad college market but it is a very disjointed market. Gavitt got that and Tranghese, for all his faults, and they were legion, understood it too. You can't get the new York college market with any single team. You need to get it from multiple points, Rutgers, UConn, Syracuse, even St Johns, Notre Dame and Seton Hall helped when they were all a part of the Big East. They all had pieces and they "cross-pollinated" which made it work. If you only have 1 you only have a very small piece of the whole. The Big will lose the Syracuse and UConn pieces. The ACC won't get UConn & Rutgers, all lose the basketball pieces which are more or less scattered to the winds now. The St Johns alum who watches college football is as likely to watch the SEC as the ACC now since he has no conneciton any more for example.

Again, out of Louisville and West Virginia, there's no question who has had the better recent run of success and I welcome UofL into the conference.

Why does Louisville get such a pass on football?

If I'm a fan, I'd take WV's record the last 5 years 99 times out of 100 over Louisville's.

WV beats them 4 years to 1.

Winning seasons? WV
BE Champs? WV
BCS Bowl victories? WV

And that's why Big 12 took them. They should have taken both though and we would most likely not been in this mess.
 
FYI. A few tweets from MH3 focusing on B12 expansion and USF primarily discussed although UCF, Cincinnati, Houston, SMU, Memphis come up in the conversation.

MH3
Might the Big12 be toying with adding a pair of AAC schools to improve their bowl line-up? Stay tuned for more...

The great thing is that it still leaves us with room to grow and there a at least 4 major non-ACC schools that have shown interest ...

The crux of the new rumor is that Big 12 might be interested in offering junior members so that they don't get the full Big 12 payout but still higher than the AAC payouts to make it worth their while.

I am sorry to all believers out there but the ACC thing is not going to happen anytime soon. Until Miami, Florida St., Georgia Tech Clemson, are out of the league we get left out. They do not want anything to do with us, especially since the ACC Network is not going to happen. Syracuse, Pitt, BC, and Louisville don't want us encroaching on their territory regardless if we pick up the series with BC again. Our best plan is to do what Manual is doing. Get as many big games against the Big 5 leagues and play hard. Win. Then hope leagues expand in the next 5 years. Anything later then that we are not considered anything more then a mid major. Our biggest fear should be if Big 12 or ACC gets pilfered by the remaining leagues and they go to four leagues of 16. Just win and win often.

Not sure if its the Big 10 or ACC, but I do agree that neither conference will capture the NYC market with their current moves and thus make UConn a rather valuable commodity. These moves were made for tv and ratings and both conferences will see that without the addition of UCONN, the NYC market really isn't there......U. C. O. N. N. UCONN UCONN UCONN!!!!!

I agree the only way we get an ACC offer is if we have an offer from the B1G on the table. Even if its for a limited membership.
Since our Midwest people of knowledge really don't see us as a target. The only way UConn gets into a big 5 conference is by legal action against the football cartel.
Their will be about 20 US Senators who represent States who will br excluded. 20 senators acting together can pretty much have their way.

UConn to the big 12 is ridicules. There are much more likely candidates in th AAC and MW than us.
The only additions that make sense for them would be Cinn, Boise.,BYU., or another Texas team.
Even a Fla school would be ahead of us.
We don't make sense geographically . The only way to be invited to that conference is if WV insisted on us. The only reason WV would insist on us is New York basketball recruiting.

The Big Twelve will unveil a new logo this summer, with significant placement on fields, courts and around campuses

Followed by a response from a poster on another board ...

Not to be outdone:
The ACC will also unveil a new logo this summer, with significant placement on tarps in all stadiums.
 
Funny except the most famous tarp is the one at Baylor.
 
He's been on a roll today:

By the way... FSU has apparently made an enemy out of OSU. OSU spent all their IOUs getting FSU approved only to have Barron say no.
