It might make UC the best of the bunch, but it definitively shows that UC is much more similar to the MAC schools than they are to Ohio State or other Big Ten universities. The tallest midget still gets tossed.

What else could the B12 do to stick it to the B1X? Stick a location right in the middle of their territory. ESPN will want OH. Now tell me how UC doesn't move the needle.
You can't make this [Mark May] up. Found it on a juggalo board.
It's a shame you took your ball and went home from Shaggy. The UC talk brought out one of the faithful, he's fellating Eastbound & Woad further adding to their circle jerk.
I love the desperate denials that there are any underlying issues with their conference.
The SWC fell apart...Arkansas, Nebraska, Texas A&M Missouri, Colorado all left for greener pastures. Oklahoma tried to jump ship twice (and failed because nobody would take them) but the B12 is st0nk!
This is why I'm not that worried about whether UC gets into the Big 12 or not. If we do, the conference will probably just fall apart around us anyway, and we'll end up back with Mohammet, Jugdish, Sidney and Clayton in whatever leftovers conference emerges from that train wreck.
My guess is you take the top half of the AAC, combine it with the bottom half of the Big 12, and you'll have the conference UC ends up in. What it will be called is anybody's guess.Probably back to the AAC. Just like their temp move to the Big Easy before that conference imploded.

Texas and Oklahoma are safe. Kansas probably finds a landing spot. I think the rest end up in a 14 team conference with Houston, Memphis, UC, UCONN, SMU, USF and UCF.I'm not sure OkSt, TTech are as safe as they were 10 years ago. If OU goes East to SEC or B1G... OkSt likely gets left behind.
Baylor is about guaranteed to get left in the dust too... small alumni, historically insignificant, utterly unremarkable w/o Briles, and looking like a pariah at this point. I doubt PAC touches them with a 10' pole and SEC can only fit 2 more... Baylor is far down that list. Even Houston would be more attractive at this point.
I believe Texas truly wants to make sure they have a flunky along to help boost their influence. That's why I think Tech gets the lifeline.
Oklahoma & the Cowboys may not be politically tied together but I wouldn't be surprised if the Pac eventually gives in and takes both in order to get Texas (with Tech). I know the power that be in Austin stated that if they do move it will be east, but there has been interest with the Pac for a long time. Just depends on how much influence the academic ends up having.
Of course I wouldn't be surprised if Tech & OkSt get left behind either.
Either way I think SMU might get passed over in a conference that already has several Texas schools.
