UConn would be huge IF they actually deliver the NYC market for the B12N

I am skeptical, but they have a better shot at it than any other candidate. I do think UConn would help land NYC market for the ACC and help the B1G. But you don't really think of New York when you think of Big 12 students and alumni.

Some Cincy message boards think Memphis is their "partner" and not UConn

Which makes sense since BYU and UConn are clearly the best 2 choices if only

In that scenario (BYU/Cincy) I think it would be BYU that needs a travel partner

Cincy however was on a run of successful seasons. They were 47-18 between 08-12

Yes, that was odd to me, as well

Houston could actually make sense in a 4-school expansion.

IMO Houston wasn't helped much by their board of regents chairman calling

If the BIG12 wants to set them up for future success and compete with SEC & B1G

Agreed except for one thing

Nothing can get them to compete with the SEC except a merger with the Pac or ACC

Not to mention the fact that the G5s we're playing are the strongest G5s
