He says the big12 meetings will show what the presidents and Ads already know. Byu, Uconn and cincy are the best expansion canidates in terms of markets for a network and all the other factors that the research went into. He stands by that if expansion does happen Cincy and Uconn will be the two schools. Espn wants a p5 presence in Ohio (network wise) and wants the political pressure off them concerning Uconn. Uconn also fits well in other areas that the presidents are concerned about. Academics and olympic sports included. There will be no vote this weekend but the 2 best canidates from the G5 will be evaluated. Memphis was never really considered to begin with. Byu years ago was but the conference wants to go east and byu has other issues. Almost the entire league is not in support of adding Houston. Says he thinks it has about a 30% chance of happening. Will come down to if Texas can make the same amout of Money of tier 3 and if the Gor won't be extended. Thats his story. If no one remembers what I discussed last time feel free to message me or ill lay out a summary on here later today.
