A lot of words to basically say the Big 12 knows they need to expand because they know it could be ripped apart in 10 years (or less).
Mike Casazza: Big 12 expansion could be easier than thought
MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — As inviting as it is to dismiss the new round of conference realignment and expansion rumors because we don’t have any idea what will happen, the reality isn’t nearly that accommodating. The truth is you do know what’s going to happen. We just don’t know when. The hunch is not immediately but rather inevitably. There’s no way the carousel stops spinning in 10 or so years and starts again for another lengthy cycle without major alterations. The incentives make the compulsion to change too strong to resist. Change might not be difficult, either.
