The Big 12 has not vetted Oregon State or Washington State. The Big 12 composition committee has not met to consider new candidates since last year.

The fact is that ESPN and Fox have maxed out their allocations for Big 12 rights. They do not have unallocated resources to fund Big 12 expansion and will not until 2031.

The Big 12 will not risk harming its relationship with ESPN by expanding without ESPN's approval.

The only caveat to this is what happens to the ACC. ESPN would use funds allocated to ACC rights to move schools to the Big 12 should it be necessary. ESPN wouldn't be allocating new money. It would transferring money from the ACC to the Big 12.

ESPN and Fox have budgets. The money in their budgets for Big 12 rights has been maxed out.  I don't expect them to reallocate resources to cover more expansion unless the ACC falls apart.
