[URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire'] [B]Greg Flugaur[/B] ‏@[B]flugempire[/B] [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire/status/664515678884360192']7h7 hours ago[/URL] The no-expansion faction in B12 have been losing traction for months. They have very little leverage...they have some..but it's leaking out [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire'] [B]Greg Flugaur[/B] ‏@[B]flugempire[/B] [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire/status/664516024767635456']7h7 hours ago[/URL] Kicking and screaming...stomping your feet on Twitter does not change the B12 landscape of a current RC Cola footprint vs Coke & Pepsi [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire'] [B]Greg Flugaur[/B] ‏@[B]flugempire[/B] [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire/status/664516518416220160']7h7 hours ago[/URL] People inside took the words of Boren seriously. Not all agreed...but they took notice... ...as in Oklahoma is gone in 2025 without action [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire'] [B]Greg Flugaur[/B] ‏@[B]flugempire[/B] [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire/status/664516945912311808']7h7 hours ago[/URL] Oklahoma State and Kansas State are with Oklahoma..they don't want 2025 to come & have OU bolt. West Virginia is firmly on board w expansion [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire'][B]Greg Flugaur[/B] ‏@[B]flugempire[/B] [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire/status/664517331708542976']7h7 hours ago[/URL] There is no more kicking the can down the road for B12. Time is now...regardless if their inferior structure still produces a final 4 team [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire'][B]Greg Flugaur[/B] ‏@[B]flugempire[/B] [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire/status/664517672969723904']7h7 hours ago[/URL] B12 desperately needs to expand their footprint. Need to create momentum in TV ratings..enlarge exposure..create leverage in TV/Media talks [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire'] [B]Greg Flugaur[/B] ‏@[B]flugempire[/B] [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire/status/664518432730165248']7h7 hours ago[/URL] The idea that B12 would vote in agreement to have a CCG at 10 schools...when they have a pro-rata TV contract to expand to 12 is not serious [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire'][B]Greg Flugaur[/B] ‏@[B]flugempire[/B] [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire/status/664519337563172864']7h7 hours ago[/URL] CINCY & Memphis addition to the B12 adds to the footprint. It adds FB demographics recruiting. It adds basketball...it adds travel partners [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire'] [B]Greg Flugaur[/B] ‏@[B]flugempire[/B] [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire/status/664519838258229252']7h7 hours ago[/URL] UH will continue to be a candidate for reasons stated her numerous of times..but it's down to those 3. But no expansion is not a candidate. [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire'][B]Greg Flugaur[/B] ‏@[B]flugempire[/B] [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire/status/664520511989256192']7h7 hours ago[/URL] One more thing.. Ask yourselves why did Boren go public with his statements of a failed (LHN)?..and B12 psychological disadvantage? [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire'] [B]Greg Flugaur[/B] ‏@[B]flugempire[/B] [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire/status/664521008104083456']7h7 hours ago[/URL] It's not because he was senile..as some on Twitter accused him of being. Boren wanted OU stake in the ground to be clear to everyone.. [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire'][B]Greg Flugaur[/B] ‏@[B]flugempire[/B] [/URL] [URL='https://twitter.com/flugempire/status/664521256977367040']7h7 hours ago[/URL] ...just not to the people inside the B12...but even more importantly to decision makers outside of B12. There...I did it gently. [/QUOTE]
