B12 Expansion Limitations

Where does UConn sit?

Big 12's pro rata clause reportedly applies only to Power Five schools, ESPN's part of media rights deal

Good question. I guess it would be up to ESPN. It's amazing how they seem to constantly have our fate in their hands.

Just because Fox isn't guaranteeing it in writing, it doesn't mean that they wouldn't negotiate in good faith either. Maybe they want to be particular about the school(s) added and not a blanket clause about power 5 schools. Maybe they don't want to add Wake Forest or BC when the ACC falls apart.

I wish there was an “agree”. I certainly don’t ”like” what you said, but concur 100%.

So much for that P6 logic right? AAC schools are considered the same as any of the other G5 schools

If Gonzaga gets in we should join also If at all possible.

What is this? Is this person mixing their Big 12 and Pac 12s? It reads like mass confusion.

Not that it is all that important but I don't believe WVU was ever a member. Also, Temple was a full member from day one, Tulsa, Tulane & ECU were added when Rutgers left and Navy was added as football only after Louisville left.
