Louisville Coaches Telling Recruits They're Headed For The Big 12? - Big East Coast Bias

[ThatllDoCy]

Good.

[jdoggivjc]

They probably will be once the Big 12 renegotiates the TV contract.

[Cyclonepride]

The sooner we get back to 12, the better.

[MNCyGuy]

Who else sees some new Big 12 North titles in ISU's future? I feel pretty good about competing in a division with Kansas, K-State, WVU, Louisville, and probably Cincinnatti.

[CyLoboClone]

yay.

[IowaSTATCyclone]

Disagree. I don't really care about the Texas schools, but I like having OSU and OU back on the schedule every year.

But I'm a Big 8 kid, soon to be a Big 5 kid.

This will not happen till at least 2013 maybe 2014. All depend on the Big East getting the exit few situation resolved....

I originally thought this as well. I think it may benefit us in the short term to get to 12 teams because we have a better shot at winning the North, but I think the divide would grow greater between North and South teams, much like it was in the past. If we were to stay combined, we would play better competition more often, play more Southern teams, making us stronger conference. Having a North/South is like wanting to play in the MWC so that we get more wins, even though they aren't quality wins. Then again, I like wins...

Cross your fingers for a geographic alignment rather than the mix-and-match divisions of the Big 10 and ACC.

I wonder if the Big East can take legal action against Louisville for going out and saying this.

[Al_4_State]

Who else is going to use a road trip to Louisville as an excuse to tour the Wild Turkey distillery?

[MNCyGuy]

A mix and match set-up would still benefit us, just not as much as geographic divisions.

[pyrocyz]

Its a little out of the way but I have heard that the Makers Mark distillery is pretty cool as well.
