re: UCF to the Big 12?

I dont understand why being a commuter school has anything to do with it? Miami is a commuter school and im sure they'd take them. I think the ability to get into the state of Florida would be the selling point. I mean do they want a quality football program or not? The Big 12 is going to have to get back to 12 teams to have a championship game. Remember this point, the NCAA football committe is going to take championship games and strength of schedule into consideration when selecting the final 4. Having a championship game helps your cause. Besides, who else is the Big 12 going to take? UCF, Boise St, Cincinnati and BYU are the highest quality teams out there. Other then that you have the Houston, SMU, New Mexico and Colorado States of the world. UCF and either BYU, Cincy or Boise St are the 2 best logical choices IMO.

No one unless they bring additional revenue per school.
Notre Dame and BYU both aren't in conferences, will the non-championship game matter for them as well.

It shouldn't have anything to do with it. But it does. To understand this you have to understand the Texas Longhorn mentality. Unless you have been around it, then it cannot be explained.
I would suggest that they would rather leave the Big 12 and join the PAC before they start letting schools like UCF join the Big 12. They are more worried about their own brand than the Big 12.
Just how it is.

Did you just call Miami a commuter school?
Are you insane?
