[QUOTE="Buckaineer, post: 129499790, member: 1428007"] The BIG 12 conference and major sports media is telling everyone all that is necessary to know. Everything else is being dreamed up by posters on message boards. Unfortunately some are gullible enough to have bought in. The situation at hand is what it is. There's nothing else to it. The BIG 12 is faced with decisions on its future. It must make improvements, or, in 2025 it will find itself most likely in a precarious situation and with schools once again departing. Financially it will fall behind others . Competitively the league schools may suffer, as funds for facilities and coaches are harder to come by, and "psychologically" as negative press increases and recruits choose other areas with more positives in the above. Some of the fixes involve adding a couple of new schools to the mix, none of which are part of the P5 currently. Not sure why some can't understand or accept these things. There are no other choices. Stay the same, continue disadvantages with severe negative impact down the road. Remain at 10 with a CCG-making some money off the CCG but risking more failure in playoffs while ending future revenue increases and increasing likelihood of later departures. Expand with available schools, stabilize the membership,create a conference wide network, improve finances to levels of every other conference long term, and improve chances for future revenues while putting schools even with other leagues competitively. These are the choices, like them or not. [/QUOTE]
