Message: [QUOTE="SAMCRO, post: 1551065, member: 543"] Memphis is definitely a less "polarizing" selection than UConn for the B12. Better geographic fit, decent hoops, football has been respectable recently (and it is all about recency with some of these mental midgets) good recruiting area, and Mr Fed Ex could throw some money around to make it even more compelling. If it is not initially about a B12 Network, it would very easily be UC and Memphis... UConn only adds value to the B12 if a Network is part of the short term equation. If they do expand (still a long shot) and they do select UConn still a VERY long shot, it means a Network deal is in the works. If they do expand and do not select UConn it means they are not worried about a Network at this time (they'd use the same thinking we've heard out of the ACC and B1G... UConn will be there if/when we need them. [/QUOTE]
