UCF and USF to the Big 12! You heard it here, first!

Too bad the Big 12 is saying they only want 10, and that TCU seems to be the front runner. Heard that earlier today.

UCF and USF don’t have the budget to fly their football and basketball teams west for all those inter-conference road games... much less all their non-revenue sports teams.

That’s just the latest rumor of the day.
UCF and USF isn’t even a rumor. It is the future truth.

Bringing them into the Big 12 together adds a huge, growing, market. Gives the Big 12 a foot in Florida. Gives the Big 12 two huge schools with a giant, growing, alumni base. Gives Big 12 teams trips to Florida every year for recruiting. Gives the Big 12 a built in rivalry that will be huge one day. It is a no-brainer.

Nobody cares about travel costs anymore. USF already flies their teams all over the place in the Big East.

UCF and USF will be in the Big 12.

Intra-conference, I meant... and yes they do care. We’re talking different time zones here. Not enough booster money. The Big Twelve might want to open the door for more Florida recruiting, but heck, UCF and USF don’t even have the state on lockdown now... not even close.

All that travel wouldn’t be good for the "student" athletes.

Arrrgh... you said "student" athlete. Now I have to kill you. I was hoping it would be a conference commissioner or school president I’d have to assassinate.

Anyway, big games tomorrow. I don’t care if LSU beats the living shit out of us... Let’s Gooo Mountaineers!
