[QUOTE="xWVU2010x, post: 132418338, member: 1467482"] Teams leaving the Big 12 is over only if nothing changes. If any of the Big XII programs becomes a national power in football they will be gone immediately. If the B1G wants a to expand further south, Baylor, TCU, Tech, OK State, KU are all targets. If either of the B1G or SEC decides basketball is now more important, Kansas and anyone else they want is gone immediately. As for UConn football and pretending they have any value, they have not finished over .500 in over a decade playing a mostly G5 schedule, and exist only because the Big East begged and pleaded for them to try and play big boy football only to be abandoned by the football members of that league. Their own fans would rather the program have never existed than to try again at a (better) power conference level. That community believes rejoining the Big East saved its basketball program. Now they are hanging a national championship banner and are happy. The alumni being happy means everyone at UConn has job security. Doing this move and risking another dark era for basketball so that football can join Kansas as a punching bag means UConn risks disenfranchising its core basketball fans once again for the sake of the afterthought football program.
