Arkansas State is trying to get in the Big12
I'm sorry but Astate trying to get into the B12 is hilarious.

That would be the most B12 thing ever.

The craziest thing that could conceivably happen would be UCONN, UCF, BYU and UH. Nothing would surprise me by this group that can't make a call. Bunch of pansies. How many consultants and years do you possibly need. Do or do not.

Really not all that crazy if you're reading some of the tea leaves regarding what certain B12 teams want and what some TV execs want. Not crazy at all.

If it's about TV only, then sure. Makes even more sense with UCF and BYU as FB only.

Still tough to sell me on UConn. I get ESPN wanting UConn in the P5. Butvwhy not the ACC, easier travel, natural fit...

But I thought our promotional pitch included them in our TV market

That's why it could "conceivably happen". I also think it would be crazy. Geography anyone?

Someone needs to go check on Drew. I fear this might be the last straw for him.

Good for them. They are at least stepping up to the plate. The Big 12 is a cluster f*** right now, they have no clue what they are doing. So A-State might as well try. BTW, we did include Jonesboro in our TV market but they clearly are A-State territory, not Tiger country.

I guess they are one of the 17. I saw NIU on the list too.

Laugh all you want, but ASU administrations have been much more aggressive than our past admins. I have a ton of respect for them.

Can anyone exactly blame us for trying can you?

No, make people tell you no. It never hurts to ask.

Shoot for the big 12 and settle as a replacement AAC team?
