Big 12 to Interview 18 schools regarding expansion

Unread post by newtoasu » Sun Aug 14, 2016 1:36 pm

I'm not on the board as much lately but I don't think I saw this mentioned:

http://www.espn.com/college-football/st ... -expansion

The schools listed are:
Cincinnati
Houston
BYU
South Florida
UCF
UConn
Memphis
Colorado State
Boise State
Tulane
Temple
East Carolina
SMU
New Mexico
Northern Illinois
San Diego State
Arkansas State
Air Force

Most of the usual suspects, but one SunBelt in Ark. State. Also ECU is on the list.

On the CSNBBS board this has been discussed. It sounded like the B12 was going to interview any school that expressed interest in joining the B12. It sounded like ArSt put their name in the ring themselves, but I think that is what all the schools did.
This is my very generic signature added to each post.

ECU's been practically begging to be taken by the Big 12, they even had the mayor of Greenville and all city counsel send the commissioner an official letter asking for consideration.

In the end it's probably going to be Cincy and Houston, maybe BYU. They're just playing the field for the sake of the presidents.

Sorry, It's an old saying from my neck of the woods and I'm showing my age ( soon to be 60 ). in short for they are so happy that you couldn't hit them because they running around with glee.

Just saw on ESPN that ECU has been ruled out by the Big 12 for expansion.
