Big 12's apparent current pecking order: Cincy, UConn, Houston, UCF, USF, Memphis, Tulane, BYU. Even though UConn seems closer to Iceland.

UConn needs out of the AAC for sure.

Would be an awesome basketball add. Cincinnati seems obvious.


And I thought there was no chance they'd add Houston???!!!!?!?! That's what the MSB told me.

ETA: I see you, Tulane

ETAA: Where's ULL?

How many hours from Texas Tech to Hartford CT?

I guess it isn't all that different from the WVU trip but it is weird for major conferences to have such a disregard for geography.

Tech to UConn is just your typical 1,950 mile (one way) road trip.

That's pretty damn far for a mid-week volleyball game.


Just add Cincinnati and one of the Florida schools and be done with it. Or Houston.

Nearly double the furthest trip in the SEC, aTm to USCe which is 1,038 miles.

Somehow the WAC has 2000+ mile Seattle to Chicago trips survive on a fraction of the budget. It's the island of misfit toys athletic conference.

Color me shocked that Texas isn't supporting BYU's admission to the Big 12.
