Fox Sports: The Big 12 wants to expand after all, so who will it be?
By Stewart Mandel  @slmandel
If the Big 12 played football games the same way its leaders conduct business, they’d never make it to kickoff. The captains would spend three hours changing their minds whether to call heads or tails.
If you haven’t heard by now, the Big 12 announced Tuesday it is EXPANDING (probably). Which is quite the reversal from just a month ago when it pumped the brakes on those discussions. Which was itself a different outcome than many expected a month before that.
On a conference call following a meeting of the league’s board of directors (the university presidents), Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby and Oklahoma president David Boren all but said to Cincinnati, Houston, BYU and all other interested candidates: go ahead. Make your best offer.
