You're in for a big surprise.

Chi-Town, even if we do get invited, it doesn't mean they knew anything. There's a TC on the UCF board, the USF board, the Houston board, the UConn board, the BYU board . . . , saying they "know" their team is getting invited, and have "known" for 18 months. Some schools will be invited. Doesn't mean the TCs of the world knew anything.

They are guessing.

I'm no insider by any means, but I trust the information I've received and who I received it from. Memphis will be Rockin' and Rollin' real soon.

Does it really matter? Isn't the bigger story here the fact we may be joining a P-5 conference?

Exactly! Who gives a crap who's right or wrong. Who knows who or whatever. Why should it matter?

If everyone can just stop for a minute and think about what this will do for the city of Memphis and our athletic program, they would forget about all this petty stuff.

This is enormous! Life changing!

I don't think it is hyperbole to say it might be the most important decision in the history of the university.

Yes yes yes...Lets all stop with the back and Forth because it doesn't matter.....I know 3 teams that are In already and that UM UC and BYU but the only one that matters to me is UM and UC because they are our Rival and Friend at the same time....from the Metro to Big East to American to Big 12....But we are getting out own BOR, New BB and IPF, and Landbridge and New Rec Center and Now Big 12.....Lets get ready to celebrate this and once IN Memphis and Cincy must continue to keep our foot on the gas.....Show them they made the Right choice and We belong their.....No Limits....The World Is Ours Memphis....

Yes Tigx, nobody knows. I am sure Fred Smith is clueless as to what is going on, Dr Rudd has absolutely no concept about expansion and the coaches will be just as surprised as every one else when the Big 12 reaches into that giant fishbowl and pulls out the number of teams they will expand by and then pull out whatever schools are in the bowl.

I am ABSOLUTELY sure that is how it is going to happen. Because nobody could possibly ever know more than you or actually have an inside source that knows exactly how all this has gone down.

To anybody else not living in fantasy land, this will be bigger than most anybody can imagine. It will have a bigger impact than just football. It will have a Big impact on Memphis!

My only problem right now is not wanting to jump five years down the road and see just how far we have come. The sleeping giant will get a huge wake up call and hopefully will come out fighting!!!
