UC candidate for Big 12?

I got this from a poster on BCI.

The replacements

Here’s where it gets interesting.

Again, Missouri and Nebraska move to the Big Ten, the Big 12 remains and decides to replenish.

At first blush, the West looks tempting. Utah and Brigham Young of the Mountain West are among the next best things not in a BCS automatic qualifier conference (yet).

Forget TCU from that conference. Terrific school, probably should have been in the Big 12 in the first place, but the league doesn’t want another Texas-based school to siphon off recruits.

But let’s stay out of the Mountain West altogether and look east, specifically Louisville and Cincinnati. Those Big East schools are already members of a BCS conference and are in larger population areas. It would put the Big 12 in SEC and Big Ten country.

Memphis from Conference USA also is a possibility here, especially if Colorado becomes a Pac-10 target.

Arkansas? If it fits better geographically in the Big 12, and if the conference can match the SEC’s financial package…

I'm thinking that the pac 10 will take some of the other Big 12 teams. The Big 12 could be non existing soon. I doubt it, but I wouldn't be shocked either.

I agree- and while I think Kansas could end up in a new big league they could also be out of the "big 6" all together and be in the Mid-Major Catagory in Basketball. Interesting

I doubt Texas goes. They can do whatever they want in Big 12. They also are looking into their own network....
