Here's an article saying what we've been saying for a while on this board.
http://sportsday.dallasnews.com/col...13/big-12-will-add-two-schools-last-long-term
I think the two most plausible scenarios on B12 expansion is adding two, or adding none. Either way the schools not named Texas, OK, OKST are in deep. The writing is on the wall...and in the scenario I spoke about yesterday, assuming that in 6 years or so comes the last great shake-up. We all ultimately assume the biggest of conference dogs will add. The SEC adding OK, and OKST seems inevitable, unless the SEC refuses to add two teams from one state, which gets them to 16. The B10 will go one of two ways, add Texas and another eastern seaboard team, maybe KU, the ACC might follow suit and go get UConn, and perhaps a Cinci or WVU, the Pac12, who oddly seemed content to stand pat at 12, will most assuredly grow. What will probably be left of the B12 will be 4-6 teams, with little to provide, a conference that will no-longer exist, and may have to beg themselves into a healthy AAC, begging schools like ECU, USF, UCF, Temple, Memphis, and Tulane who they humiliated 6 years earlier forcing them to go on a dog and pony show knowing good and well their intentions to expand beyond 2 schools was never in the cards.
I imagine when that happens eventually the hat-in-hand former B12 members will be swallowing a lot of pride and eating quite a bit of crow.
