What's this?

After wading through a weekend of speculation articles and posts,

I think the only moves in the next 24-36 months from the P5 will be to backfill 2-4 schools from the G5 into the BigXII. Cincinnati, Houston, UCF, Memphis in that order will be the potential poachees to fill out the BigXII. Nothing too exciting but keeps the schools without other P5 options in the auto-playoff picture. After 3 years, I guess we wait to see what happens around 2034.

I would love to see something happen for WVU, PSU, ND to come into the ACC, but something larger than the UT & OU move is going to have to happen first. Adding schools to the ACC now would need to bring at least $50M per school to break even with current distribution. WVU won't do that without help from another overvalued school.
