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

UCF - why does nobody talk about them, would be a better option than all that have been listed before

IMO i think its because UCF is still relatively new to the scene. Their school is large, but a lot of thos are commuters. They have no real sports history or tradition. I get that its in Florida and the recruting that comes with that, but BYU, Cincy, Colorado St or Memphis do more for the Big 12 in all sports than UCF does.

Look at Colorado St right now:

Football - (10-2), Building a brand new on campus stadium.
Womens Volleyball - Sweet 16 (31-2)
Mens Basketball - (8-0)
Mens Cross Country - NCAA National Championships, ranked 25th
Softball - (34-17) last season


Colorado St actually makes a GREAT case to be added. Their athletic programs are all doing really well. Now would be a great time for the Big 12 to add them .
