I think we are in the top two for expansion into the Big 12. However, things could change. We have many advantages including our facilities and location. Most football teams in our conference do not have their own football stadiums. Teams like Temple, Memphis, USF all have leased arrangements. Others do not have a basketball arena which also includes Memphis, UConn plays half of games in city arena in Hartford and others are too small. I also have to wonder why all of a sudden UC changed it's course from a remodeled 5th 3rd arena capacity of 10.5K to 12K? Was that because UC sees the Big 12 train coming?
