Quote:We now know UAB’s future conference affiliation destination. But there are still plenty of important questions that need to be answered. Here’s what you need to know following UAB’s big move on Thursday.

The Battle for the Bones.

Memphis will probably be in the B12 before we get a shot at them.

I have doubts about that being the case, as much as they might want it.

i had doubts they would move also but they just had Simmons Bank sign on to the liberty bowl so looks like they will be getting the upgrades to the Liberty Bowl the Big12 wanted them to have before they got the nod....only time will tell.

Big 12 wanted them to have a new stadium in a more desirable location. Unless they cut sone sort of deal they will be right here for a while while we continue upgrades. Would be a nice package deal with Memphis and UAB one day.
