network rolling and then try and steal 2 ACC or B1G or P12 teams in a few years.

while ACC, B1G, P12 and B12 have all "promoted" G5's to P5, no one's ever added 4 in one shot.

Agreed. But what if B12 could snag UA and ASU?

The Arizona schools leaving the P12 makes no sense for them, but hypothetically

AZ schools leaving for B12 would initiate a major re-alignment movement

They aren't leaving. Useless to speculate.

I think you are right

If Big 12 could snag UA/ASU, then they'd also lose Ok/OkSt or some other 2some

As an engineer, this part of the process is very intriguing to me

I would pick UCONN/Cinn and BYU/SDSU (for SoCal exposure/recruiting)

what would CB do if they went to 14 and didn't include BYU? yikes

A melt down to end all melt downs

No, the 2011 meltdown would still be worse.

If they are really serious about the channel thing, they need 14

Nat Gas Man

No that would split their sacred B12 money even further.

The Consultants have been asked what ideal size is. IMO, 12+ is option.

CosmoK

Agreed. We are all expecting 12 but 14 is an option

The whole thing needs to be scrapped and go to 6-8 more geographically aligned

why not just go to one league with different conferences inside the league..way

Isn't that just the NCAA and P5/G5

nope a single governing body over all P5 schools

Nat Gas Man

They could expand to 16 and we still wouldn't get an invite

Backcountry

If they add SIX teams, and don't add BYU, the league will crumble
