"And that would impact our ability to be as successful as we want to be against our competitors."So the process will continue with a likely resolution on the three big issues coming sometime in the summer.The Big 12 has two teleconferences scheduled this month with its composition committee, which studies expansion and is comprised of three presidents: Oklahoma's David Boren, West Virginia's Gordon Gee and Baylor's Ken Starr. Boren and Gee are expansion proponents. The conference's board of governors (presidents and chancellors) has one conference call scheduled too, Bowlsby said.Then the ADs and board of directors will meet in Irving on May 31-June 3. Two major presentations are scheduled, one from Navigate Research on its schedule findings and one from TV consultants, New York-based Bevilacqua Helfant Ventures (BHV).Bowlsby confirmed Wednesday that BHV is talking with the conference TV partners gathering information in case the conference has to expand and redo its current TV contracts with Fox and ESPN, which run through 2024-25.Bowlsby said it's "unlikely" the board of directors will take action in Irving but suggested they will at some point soon after.</blockquote>
