That would help Texas, but not sure it would help the Big XII.

The Big XII is too small, both in membership and in geographic footprint. They know it too. I'm not sure what prevented them in the end from adding members, but it looks like they are biding time at this point due to the existing GOR.

Hoo86, who do you think comes to the ACC from the BIG 12? -- VT ChemE 1986 05/02/2017 1:14PM

Why would we take anyone? -- Mr. Touchdown 05/02/2017 3:01PM

I don't believe that traditional "conference expansion" logic will apply -- VT ChemE 1986 05/02/2017 5:58PM

I think all 4 will take a couple duds. -- chuckd4vt 05/02/2017 8:09PM

I wouldn't be shocked to see some "duds" join P4's as accociate -- daveinop 05/03/2017 1:40PM

16 would be even better for the ACC. Adding WVU & ND would be great. -- chuckd4vt 05/02/2017 8:57PM

The way the power conferences get around the political pressure -- VTHokie2000 05/03/2017 4:11PM

WVU is the best fit due to regional rivalries. -- HOO86 05/02/2017 1:41PM

AAC just had more players drafted than Big 12! Not too good! -- Lakeridgehokie 05/02/2017 08:49AM

That's a surprising stat. -- Maroon Baboon 05/02/2017 1:50PM

Finebaum hanging out here too? 😎 -- Stech 05/01/2017 10:11PM

If Texas pulls out of their tailspin the Big 12 may be worth -- goldendomer 05/01/2017 9:09PM

At some point, I think they need to invest and take a risk. -- Maroon Baboon 05/01/2017 10:42PM

They actually got quite lucky w/ TCU. I would add Boise and BYU yesterday. ** -- chuckd4vt 05/02/2017 11:08AM

There were, but they could not agree. -- HOO86 05/01/2017 9:06PM

Exactly. -- SoCloseHokie 05/01/2017 8:28PM

That would help Texas, but not sure it would help the Big XII.
