GrantNKY Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 Board of Directors for Big XII vote not to expand from its 10 members. Big 12 can't agree on new members, to stand pat at 1
PSJ Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 Disappointing.... I was really pulling for Houston and UC... Houston because I really like Herman and what he's done for UH and thought he would have good chance of staying if joined power 5 (no way now) and a UC for fact would be fun to have teams like a Texas and OU coming up here every couple of years.. I guess Big 12 coaches don't want someone like a Houston impacting their recruiting grounds and can sell their power 5 program over a non power 5 team in an area that is rich with high school talent. Even though I think adding a Houston brings more credibility to a conference that has been struggling overall..
Clyde Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 If you're Texas and you think you want Herman you certainly don't vote to put UH into the B12.
98NCCalum Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 The Big XII is the Jerry Springer of college football.
GrantNKY Posted October 17, 2016 Author Posted October 17, 2016 How stupid does the Big XII think we are. "We can't agree on who we wanted in the conference." Bull crap we all know Houston, UC, and BYU were great candidates but Texas and OU didn't want them in their conference because it hurts their ability to win. I want so bad for one of the other presidents in the Big XII to come out and say that this didn't get done because of Texas and OU.
NKYknowitall Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 So what does this mean for UC now? Stay mid-major
Clyde Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 @gametime refresh my memory on the "pro rata" clause.

Anyone who's followed college football long enough knows. It would still be great if one of them did though.
littleluck55 Posted October 18, 2016 Posted October 18, 2016 The Big XII is the Jerry Springer of college football. And the results are in for UC, Big XII is not your conference.
NKYknowitall Posted October 18, 2016 Posted October 18, 2016 Realistically, what power 5 best suits UC?
GrantNKY Posted October 18, 2016 Author Posted October 18, 2016 Realistically, what power 5 best suits UC? ACC.
NEERFAN Posted October 18, 2016 Posted October 18, 2016 Is it true their TV partners are throwing in 5+ million to keep it a 10 team conference.
NKYknowitall Posted October 18, 2016 Posted October 18, 2016 ACC. Already been turned down once. Where do they fit?
