I don't think there is a problem with the Big12, I think the problem is with church sponsored schools that play college football,

The same story could be written about 90% of the P5 programs. Cops in local college town working with AD(football) staffs. For an example of where this is not happening, look at UGA and Athen police. Compare with AU, AL, Clemson. All recruit the same kids yet UGA players have been arrested and jailed for driving with an expired drivers license and for shooting cans in a dorm room with a bb gun.

You mean as opposed to the SEC & B1G where such examples are much worse? Guess we should push for the Ivy League, nope heard of some corruption there too. Maybe we should just abandon sports altogether to avoid such association.

The tRuEtH.. They don't want anybody and that's probably how it will remain until another Conference makes a move.. They are Reactive not Proactive..

No, but I will say that I am much more confident in the fact that we will get in than the negative opinons of those that say that we won't.

It won't matter what anyone's opinion is on this message board. We had two or three continually come on here for 10 plus years telling us we were "in" only to get their hopes squashed. The last conference we got "in" was basically CUSA plus UConn after the smoke cleared. I see the same thing happening here. We may "get in" after Texas and OU fly the coop. Seems like some of you pay way more attention to internet nerds than you do the president of Oklahoma.

I hope we get in too, but I'm not gonna go around crowing about it when the only place I've seen anything where we are getting in is from this message board.

Sorry if that's considered negative

RE: Not Sure About This BigXII Thing
You can have your opinion, but I am not only hearing it on this message board.

I see less rumors of Texas and OK flying the coop than I do our inclusion, so I am not the one getting caught up in rumors.
We were screwed out of the Big East, but if you don't think we have drastically changed our focus since then and positioned ourselves for where we are headed, I guess you can have your view of things.

But, I also won't sit behind my keyboard and bash people that do actually know more than you thinking that somehow makes me superior or even funny. Have to get it where you can, I suppose.

Nothing gets worse than the Baylor situation. Remember, this is the same school where a BBall player murdered another athlete.
