Big 12 action could be delayed


IMO, this is a clear indication that some schools are saying no thanks right now and want to play things out more, especially Texas.

Don’t be surprised if the Big 12 leaders do nothing concrete at their May-June meetings in Irving. They’ll consider the research data from two analytic firms, but it’s possible no serious action will happen on key issues such as a conference football championship game, expansion and a Big 12 television network until later in the summer. “I think that’s accurate,” Big 12 Commissioner Bob Bowlsby told me in Kansas City, Mo. “There could be some things that slow us down.” One could be the direction Texas wants to take. No one seems to have a good feel for the Longhorns’ stance, in part because the school has a new chancellor, president and athletic director. Any feel for Texas’ desires? “We’ve had conversations, but I’m not at liberty to characterize them.” Still betting the title game happens with the outcry for a 13th “data point.” One Big 12 AD told me he thinks the league should wait and get one more season and decide on a game next January. Three years is just a better sample size than two
