Was mildly surprised that not one analyst, even Rick Neuweasel, thought B12 should skip the opportunity to add us
CBS Inside College Football: Big12 should add UCF
- Thread starter beelit47
- Start date
this should flatter us but we've seen this crap way too many times & nothing ever happens
Wonder if Danny White is dangling the antitrust suit in front of them and the cartel started nudging the B12
I only trust articles which call us a Sleeping Giant.
Didn’t @UCFhonors say we are in the Reign of Dominance. Sounds like the giant is awake
Correct. 2007-2017 was UCF's Rise to Prominence.
2018 began our Rise to Dominance.
Everyone is well aware of these UCFacts on Soundoff and Rival's Basketball board

All the analysis has been done (a million times). The Tampa TV market is too big (and growing) not to do it. Take USF and UCF.
I dislike USF but the market size would be tremendous.
But they don’t carry the market. Never have, never will. Tampa generally does not care about USF football. The same cannot be said about UCF and Orlando.
USF isn't needed as a "partner" to join anything, and back when they were, UCF wasn't. I've always thought a joint thing was nonsense. 1 would carry the other's area. Right now, UCF is the only one needed and Big 12 in Orlando would get a fair set of eyes in Tampa. Same could be said if we were left behind. We need to realize that right now, we're the hot property and there is no reason in Hell we should tie ourselves to a dog. I really wish people would stop linking us to usf- WE DON'T NEED TRAINING WHEELS!
It would be the ultimate Genshaft if we got an invite and they got left behind
I would like Hitt to come back just for the press conference or to attend and smile in the background.
Leave USF behind. We can take their share of tv and we don't want another "P5" in FL to compete with in recruiting.
I thought they had good crowds when they were in the big east. Maybe I'm wrong. And did they carry the Orlando market when they were in the big east?
They as a few good crowds for 1 year, but now can’t even draw 25,000 fans consistently. Those fans are never coming back. They’re own students don’t even want an on campus stadium for the school.
Tampa has always been Gator country. Orlando was too, but has slowly embraced UCF. Honestly, I think we would have a larger market share of Tampa than USF at this point.
The support USF got for a few games was a fad. Much like the pet rock craze of the 70's.
The Big Twelve should've picked up UCF last year along with another team but not necessarily USF. I think the B1G will eventually move on Oklahoma and KU. The Big Twelve would be smart to be proactive and strengthen their conference now and not let it be in danger of crumbling.
They are old white guys sitting around the country club reminiscing on the good ole days.
