Plus, interest in the AAC seems to have fizzled out. Many people on this board have now graduated to being Big 12 wannabes. Makes sense. We are the best P5 material out there! I expect STF's phone to be ringing constantly from all the B12 calls begging us to join. 03-lmfao

heh. in a theoretical NIU Big 12 merger, i would expect our rears to be handed to us in the first couple of years, until we get a proper Big 12 recruiting class in and developed.

I just don't think people know how far we are from this conference. Texas and Okl will never allow this. I don't want to see us stand still, but you have to be realistic.

I think there are very few people on here who truly believe that this is a probable move for NIU. However, I think that many of us see this as our foot in the door to conference realignment. To see that we are getting a shot to pitch our case to a P5 conference means that there is at least a tiny bit of interest. They wouldn't waste their time with us otherwise.

The ONLY way we can get on those two good side is...

Guarantee to play OU and Texas at Soldier Field or US Cellular until our stadium holds 42k. The Cell would jump on this idea no problem.

Secondly for Texas is we need to allow for 100% of NIU's home games vs UT which are not picked up for TV to be broadcast on LHN...that would force the Chicagoland Cable companies to add LHN to their offerings which would mean more money for Texas.
