Once more... I've heard nothing that says the Big 12 won't go to 14. But adding only 2 is possible.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV  · 2h2 hours ago  
ESPN/Fox aren't especially keen on the B12 adding 4. They may add $ to keep it at 12.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV  · 2h2 hours ago  
Key phrase is may. Also note if the B12 thinks they can land UCLA in 2024 they may stop at 12.
 
Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV  · 2h2 hours ago  
But why leave the extra money on the table? Adding 4 eliminates the need of a network for the current 10 members.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV  · 2h2 hours ago  
Adding 4 likely pays the current 10 members more than the ACC will receive for ACCN.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV  · 2h2 hours ago  
Adding 4 also positions the Big 12 to launch a network in the future.

Christopher Lambert ‏@theDudeofWV  · 2h2 hours ago  
And there isn't any rule that would stop the B12 from adding UCLA or another disillusioned P12 school in 2024. Why not be the 1st to 16?

@theDudeofWV still think BYU?

Christopher Lambert‏@theDudeofWV  
@johnnyslc2000 Yes

Houston with a "special announcement" on 8.1.16. Not the best time to give these teasers if it isn't Big 12.

@jr_mckee @Mitch_Harper Much too soon. Shame on UH for trolling.
