Some of you are really struggling with a basic concept here.

Important Tweet - Good.

Your comments - Bad. Very bad.

Let's try this again...

After BYU and @GoBEARCATS are in place who can help the conference grow their geographic footprint and bring value

Seth Greenberg ‏@SethOnHoops 2m2 minutes ago

My opinion is either the Florida schools or @UConn and @TigersAthletics as package. Don't see taking only 1 Florida school.

.@SmittySBJSBD thinks the Big 12 will eventually expand by 2 teams, BYU being one team...and possibly UCONN.

@TrueBlueNoU @BYUSportsNation I think Big 12 will still expand, but I'm saying status quo is an option. If it's 2, I'd go BYU and UConn.

@BriUConn Not sure of the exact timing. But sometime over the weekend the Big 12 and UConn connected about a meeting.

Big XII Television Partners' Disapproval of Expansion Is Bad News for UH

 

[ninety-nine]

This popped up on Rotoworld, of all places:

"The Dallas Morning News' Chuck Carlton reports that no school being considered for Big 12 expansion has drawn the required eight votes to join the conference.

While Carlton relayed that the Big 12 has yet to truly settle on its expansion targets yet, he additionally noted that "in-depth discussions and inevitable horse trading haven't really begun yet." He is also hearing that a football-only invite to the conference is unlikely, with a source telling him, "Nobody wants it." Last week, it was reported that BYU would consider joining the Big 12 on a football-only basis, but if Carlton's source is on-point, that might no longer be a realistic possibility. Aug. 4 - 12:16 pm ET"

"Oklahoma does not want to be in a league with Memphis" @BerryTramel of @TheOklahoman on #Big12Expansion - full interview up shortly

 

[UConn Dan]

Per Blauds: Big 12 focusing on adding only 2 schools

2 schools not 4. We are in top 3.

After interacting with there fan base some I can't blame Oklahoma.

Do you have trouble following directions?

Source: BYU Big 12's No. 1 overall. Oklahoma wants Cincy. Texas of course wants Houston. Don't be surprised if compromise is Cincy & Houston

Some people have changed their minds re: BYU. But the Big 12 is wont to do that ...

Source tells me Big 12 reps are on campus at UCF today, looking around for feasibility survey. Bunch of enhancements this week, too.

If UConn has a relationship with ESPN it's certainly been abusive
In fact Women's basketball essentially generates zero revenues ,even though they are a regular prime time participant
That sounds like a women's rights violation ,maybe somebody should point this out to Hillary. Or better yet point it out to ESPN first.

You are about to have an abusive relationship with an internet message board.
