So you are saying that CSU and BYU don't make up for the losses and shore up the 'Big XII'? How can that be? Yet another angle for nonstop laughter.
BYU fan pretending to be a Utah fan. They confuse themselves and don't understand how they lose the audience.
I thought it was pretty clear - CSU and BYU not only are cash negative for the Big 12, plus they get their asses kicked every year.
I think the case could be made that BYU would be pretty competitive in the current Big 12 though. ISU or OSU might be ahead of them in football, nobody else is.
CSU, otoh.

I don't know. I just saw it and commented on it.
You gotta admit - it would be entertaining.
BU is a legit hoops power, as much as I hate to say it. That's been sustained success.
TTU has the feel of being a flash in the pan with an elite coach who was able to have 1 magical year despite the program's limitations.
And haven’t tried to cover up the murder/paying of players for at least a decade.
On that note, it's about incremental value more than absolute value. On absolute value, FSU/MIA/GAT check every box. CLEM is currently a hyper elite of national powers.
But the SEC already has those home markets. So major programs in NC and VA likely carry more relative value for the conference.
College football scheduling is too hard to do it year to year in the offseason.
It doesn't have to be difficult at all and we're just talking about the first 3-4 games of the year where it'd be all Pac 12/B1G

Why do you say that? I feel as though there can be pre-set schedules like the NFL and teams get slotted based on performance. Or just simply a set rotation.
Really?
Did you forget to use the sarcasm font?
You might be thinking about academic class schedules, but if the NHL and NBA can schedule games in the same damn arenas on a <6 month timetable, surely the people who are running schools where they literally teach people how to do operations management can figure it out.
Speaking of schedules, odd scheduling quirk for this season - Duke only plays 2 games outside the state of NC and both of those are in Virginia
Your should ask **** baylor about how those "quirks" happen.
I wonder what effect the NIL will have on basketball. The NBA is international and far more valuable than the NFL. Shoring up basketball might be the BIG’s best decision.
In an NIL world BYU is going to be very very dangerous. Be careful with your predictions in the new era.I thought it was pretty clear - CSU and BYU not only are cash negative for the Big 12, plus they get their asses kicked every year.

Ill guess there is a big pool of KU alums in KC and St Louis. So Im not sure its as much of a stretch to pair with Mizzou.

Meh
Thamel is correct that USC has the power
Once you get out of football thats a lot of 5 plus hour flights for conf games.

LOL What is the causal relationship here?

This is ultimately why USC won’t go alone, if they go.
of all the weird scenarios that have been brought up, the merger of B1G and PAC seems to make the most sense at the moment. Problem, as I see it, is that is a very significant move, when several smaller more incremental moves would be more palatable to those in charge. I’d expect to see the scheduling agreement come out first. It’s an easy step to take, and starts the process for an actual merger down the road.
