UNM is out because not only do they cheat, they're bad cheaters. The Lobos have a FB tradition that's worse historically than ISU's. If we want to add a bad team in a populous area, add UNLV.

Louisville, BYU, USF, Cincinnati in no particular order, really.

Any 3 of those 4 and I'll be happy.

ADD NDSU!!

we can compete, you know we can!! our basketball team will survive.

Track, volleyball, soccer, softball would compete for a title.

wrestling, baseball is a bit off.

This is exactly the kind of stuff I was complaining about in that Dan Swaim/UNI thread. No, you couldn't compete. Look at Western Kentucky, who by all accounts was a very solid FCS program. Now they can't even compete in the SUNBELT! And you, I think legitimately and delusionally, think NDSU could come in and be a competitive Big 12 team.

Congratulations, you beat Minnesota. Everyone in the state knows that Joel Maturi has royally ****ed every program, save maybe hockey, at that school with bad hires that couldn't capture the attention of a pro sports state. They are perhaps the worst of the bad BCS programs.

Was told today if Texas just gives up doing any high school stuff on LHN others will agree to stay in big12 (conf)

How has this bobFescoe been as far as reporting and accuracy? I see his name a lot but can't remember if he's to be trusted.

Hi!

This is your official good deal offer.
We are the B12 minus three, maybe four. We need young servicable bodies. Will you please accept our offer NOW? We need to get some immediate good news to shut the media up. You can keep all your church money and replays. Franklym, we only show UT stuff for replays. We booted the riff-raff (aTm - Bill Byrne was a real pain) and jettisoned the impotent commish (beebeman) when the time was right. So we are ready for some Sunday football? Ya' comin'."

:swoon: :sad: :realmad: :mad:
Deaton, Boren, Powers, Neinas and the gang - your buds in crime

@BYUGiff Having it "done" as everyone said it is would be a done deal. They have the offer and are ready to sign, but #BIG12 has to solidify


Makes sense. Just waiting for Mizzou or what the hell are we waiting for?

Big12 expansion candidates - #Cincy stadium only holds 35k, 15k less than the smallest Big12 stadium (Baylor's Floyd Casey seats 50k)

He hasn't resigned as president of the Big 12. That was debunked yesterday.
