Name a school that wouldn’t be hair-on-fire for getting a call to the BIG?
Point being, we all know this, so it isn’t irony.

They are going to be in for a rough time. I hope they get new leadership because currently their AD is a joke and constantly under investigation.
Can't wait for the "Big 12 Legends: Lute Olson" documentary.
I think it's time to rank the new member schools in terms of best roadtrip destinations. Tough to rank with so many schools. I'm loving all the new options and lots of great destinations with the latest 8 adds. Leaving ISU out.
1. ASU
2. Colorado
3. Utah
4. Arizona
5. BYU
6. WVU
7. Houston
8. UCF
9. TCU
10. Cincy
11. OK State
12. KU
13. Kstate
14. Baylor
15. TTU

There was a Jason Scheer tweet a while back, when everything was still in the air, stating that a team was going to join the Big 12 that was going to surprise everyone. Was it ever discovered what school he was referencing and the context of that tweet? Just curious.
You joke, but I found out my wife was my 6th cousin once-removed a couple years ago. We have been married for 30 years.Which side of the family is she your cousin.
I’ll guess it was Washington
I was one of those "broke college kids" when I attended ISU so I didn't make any road trips to any of the other conference rivals... but strangely enough I actually have been on ASU's campus. ASU as of 2 days ago was my Pac 12 team, and a business trip had me spending the night in Phoenix, so I made a trip to their campus to visit the bookstore to pick up some gear. I can confirm their campus is as gorgeous as the women that populate it.
Based on this from altimore’s Twitter feed I bet you can guess the school that wouldn’t fit the “big 10 model”. I think it starts with an O.
I agree with a lot of what you say, but for the sake of argument - the money per team in the NFL is massively more than in college and theoretically CFB can close the gap a bit a few different ways.
For instance by reducing meaningless non conference games that nobody watches. The reasons they were hesitant to do that in the past don’t seem as important anymore. For example with the 12 team playoff I expect to see more teams get in with multiple losses, and with the TV money getting so big it will dwarf whatever they lose from missing out on the guaranteed home game, etc.
But I agree with you about linear vs streaming. The NFL has dipped their toe in the water there and will continue to do so but it doesn’t seem imminent that all NFL games will be streaming only.
since Yormark came all I've read is how aligned our conference is... ASU via Crow does not sound very aligned at all. This dude seems to have strongly supported every bad decision the PAC made the last 20 years. I like the idea of the sun devils in our conference, but I do fear this guy having a voice within our conference.
I love Pittsburgh but if you stay there during a WVU trip you aren't experiencing Morgantown, which is a cool college town for at least one night.
