    Adding Baylor? Okie light? BYU? KSfU?

    Christ. Stop talking.

    We don’t actually want that to happen, nor do we expect it. It was reported as a rumor, so we commented on it. Also, it’s impossible for me to stop talking.

    I wouldn't mind Okie State coming to the Pac-12. I've been saying that for weeks.

    Haven’t listened …

    But if that’s the order of schools/programs pining for then there’s a real lack of understanding where the $$$ is in the Big 12

    OK State still has T Boone Pickens money. It’s Stillwater but the money is real

    Okie Lite would be a Top 2 add for me out of the Big 12

    Decent sized alumni base and strong in a number of sports

    Like you said, they have $$$

    I would add Houston over most of their schools left. Big money market that still cares about football. Small stadium though

    I know football is king, but Kansas, despite their arguably worst in the nation P-5 football program, would seem to be a catch considering their blue blood status in basketball.

    Who is your other Top 2 add? Baylor?

    Houston, Tech, Okie State and TCU. That would give the P12 11 of the top 30 media markets(I’m counting Sacramento and San Diego) in America with which to negotiate your new TV deal.

    If they were even remotely competitive in football they’re a no brainer for everybody

    They are so bad in football you could argue they’d be better off shutting it down … it’s limiting their long term future

    Houston is trash in so many respects

    I’m with ya. I’ll throw out a dark horse and that’s UNLV. It’s scraping the barrel but the new commish may have a soft spot
  • TequillaTequilla Member Posts: 19,837
    And that’s my point … Baylor isn’t in the Top 2 for adds … it’s debatable if they would be over Texas Tech to be honest

    From a combination of $$$, football performance, and recruiting … TCU blows Baylor out of the water

    What hurts both TCU and Baylor is that their footprints as private schools are a fraction of the alumni bases of state schools like Tech for instance

    Have you ever seen Baylor’s fan base?

    Bunch of 5’6” 150 pound gingers that don’t have an athletic bone in their bodies
