re: Big 12 researching possible candidates for expansion even before playoff snub

Why wouldnt the Big 12 consider Louisiana Tech.
They have been a decent mid major program for a while. To me it would be a better pick up than Memphis. Although I guess La Tech's geographic and demographics of the LA tech following is not that great. They are essentially limited to Television sets in North Louisiana

It's about market size. Tulane would be a better choice than Louisiana Tech.

Tech has so many positive things going for them right now - academics, on campus construction, etc. but the university foundation is not on par with "power conference" level foundations. Although it has grown significantly, based on growth percentage, the amount is still staggering, in a bad way.
When Tech was in the WAC, their ESPN games always had decent viewership compared to all non-BCS schools and many BCS schools....but no where even remotely close to the Saturday CBS SEC game of the week.

In all seriousness as an alum this would be awesome but never gonna happen.
Houston, Rice, Memphis, North Dakota St., all good options.

Because they still have their dignity
