Check the Athlon Sports Mitch Light on Sports Night segment.

Around the 9:55 minute mark.

Mentions Fred Smith opening the checkbook.

He's a credible source too.

After listening, Mitch isn't exactly buying it.

Kansas
Oklahoma
Texas
Baylor
Memphis
Cincy
Okla St
West Va (imagine their game at Cincy)
K- State
Iowa St

oh and TCU and Texas Tech

Hey, I'd finally get to see a regular season game, with Ames only 90 miles away!

Memphis and Cincinnati to the Big XII makes sense. Cincy are a balanced athletic department that is a good bridge to WVU. Memphis is a unique market and could become another Texas Tech-like program in the conference. I think there's a little something there for everyone in the conference, including Texas.

If there's anything that realignment has taught us on the Ohio River, it's that realignment NEVER makes sense lol.

I'm with you, after listening to that interview, it sounds like the Interviewer is trying to get people talking, not that he actually heard anything, and the interviewee IMMEDIATELY rebuffed the claim.

John Martin chimes in...

Here is a cut and paste from another UC board...


"Listening to 102.5 the game in Nashville this afternoon and they're stating that they've heard regardless of the outcome of the CFP, the big12 will add two teams in the offseason to get back to 12 and a title game. Memphis and Cincinnati being the two schools...interesting stuff."


Lets hope!!!!!! UC and Memphis would make a great add!

That would be the coolest thing to happen for Memphis athletics in my lifetime.

Is that what you're hearing or just guessing?

The Big 12 wants to expand, certainly. I'd not geting my hopes up though. If it happens, great.

The only thing that gives me hope is they never talk about Memphis in Nashville. I live in Nashville and it's all about UT.
