Three Thoughts

• Conference expansion hitting the Big 12 is the perfect situation for July/August, the perfect time to contemplate different combinations for the future.

The Big 12 won’t expand past 16, I don’t believe, because the extra network funding isn’t promised beyond 16. 

If Pac-12 prospects play hard to get, (Brett) Yormark can mention UConn, warning the Pac schools that the Big 12 has other options, and I wouldn’t want to play poker with Yormark.

From what it sounds like, the Big 12 is open to taking 16 but says they want 14 to create a sense of scarcity.

• This was pretty incredible – college football’s best offensive lineman said one of the two toughest players for him to block was OSU’s Collin Oliver (PFF)

• Athletic Director Chad Weiberg nails exactly how it feels to be a Cowboy fan in this round of realignment:

“We want solutions, but what we really need are attitudes.

You don’t need abs, but rather an attitude of training. You don’t need the answer, but rather an attitude of curiosity. You don’t need an easier life, but rather an attitude of perseverance.

Attitude precedes outcome.”
