[QUOTE="Buckaineer, post: 129605282, member: 1428007"] The BIG 12 is expanding-- but not with "crap schools"--with schools that fit within any P5 conference. How many is the question--2 or 4? Schools under consideration are already above schools within the P5 structure in several categories. The BIG 12 isn't diminished by adding schools better than schools in other P5 conferences at all. The likely outcome is going to be extension of the tv contract with some increase and extension of the grants of rights because while they are sometimes reactionary (usually reactionary) instead of proactive, the members have chosen to be together. None of them are interested in moving elsewhere because the BIG 12 provides them with the best chance for success. Its amazing how you ACC fans are banking on a network that won't begin until 2019 to move you "ahead". By that time the BIG 12 is going to be ahead of where they are today financially--and in size as well. What they add will be more quality than most of the ACC consists of. [/QUOTE]
