Message: [QUOTE="jostar1, post: 1502230, member: 1737"] Frank the Tank ‏@frankthetank111 · 20h20 hours ago Jim Delany is the best friend of Cincinnati and 1 of either Houston or Memphis right now. #Big12Expansion Mexican Batman ‏@Mexican__Batman @frankthetank111 @zach_barnett why are u so sure cincy will get the invite? Frank the Tank ‏@frankthetank111 · 3h3 hours ago New large market, academics, consistent long-term performance. To be clear, this is only if Big 12 invites *anyone* Frank the Tank ‏@frankthetank111 · 3h3 hours ago If I were running the Big 12, BYU would already be in the league. Whether Big 12 agrees with me is another matter. Frank the Tank ‏@frankthetank111 · 3h3 hours ago I think Sunday restrictions are a red herring re: BYU. MWC worked fine with them. Seems more personal (literally) Frank the Tank ‏@frankthetank111 · 3h3 hours ago Strong personal networking b/w Big 12 presidents and Cincinnati and Houston. Memphis has some; BYU not as much. Frank the Tank ‏@frankthetank111 · 2h2 hours ago If Big 12 is going to expand that far east, then UConn is more valuable than Temple (but they won't expand that far) Frank the Tank ‏@frankthetank111 · 2h2 hours ago In a vacuum, UConn and Temple bring value with academics and markets. They just don't fit the Big 12 specifically. Frank the Tank ‏@frankthetank111 · 2h2 hours ago That being said, if I was running UConn or Temple, I'd still be calling the Big 12 daily. (1/2) Frank the Tank ‏@frankthetank111 · 2h2 hours ago Last 2 spots in the Big 12 might be the last 2 spots in the 5 power conferences for the next generation. (2/2) [/QUOTE]
