That sounded too definitive to me so I fixed it.
That still sounds pretty definitive. Name your sources.

Now that TAMU has officially gone, and things move more into what happens next, we should rename this thread "***Official 2011 Conference Realignment Thread***"
#BYU will release a statement later today regarding the situation with the #Big 12.
If it comes down to keeping the Big 12 together. I'd take SMU. I just don't want the Big 12 breaking up.
Link? Source?SMU wont do anything to keep the big 12 together. Not one little bit.

I expect ND or BYU, OR Air Force to join. I'm not too worried.Common sense.
Adding a school with <10k undergrads in a city we already have completely locked up that just divides the pot more without adding anything to the conference, will not do anything to keep the conference together.

Reading through Chip's piece
Orangebloods.com - What's next for the Big 12?
I couldn't help but think of the following long-shot senario:
Big 12 takes Pitt
SEC takes 3 schools from ACC/Big East to get to 16.
ACC replaces schools from Big east to get back to 12
Big East is left with likely TCU, Cincy, Louisville, South Florida, Rutgers as the only
football playing schools left
The questions then are...
1. Does the Big 10 go to 16?
2. Does the Big 12 offer Notre Dame and either BYU or Louisville?
3. What happens to the remaining Big East schools? Merge with ACC or invite Central Florida, Houston, East Carolina?
