I don't think that is what it means...
The BIG12 isn't going to "threaten" those conferences, they would agree to play games against their teams giving them nice paydays.

a walk down memory lane RE expansion announcements:

Hard to argue against that
SUAVO

Nice. What was the time frame for Big 12 additions?
BabyJ24
7/26/16 9:51am
TCU invite was mid october and WVU invite was end of October, I believe
SUAVO
7/26/16 9:52am
So after their regularly scheduled meetings in October? We may have to wait
BabyJ24
7/26/16 9:56am
Not necessarily. TCU was invited before that, but the timeline right before that
SUAVO
7/26/16 10:10am
It had NOTHING to do with the LHN, which aTm president admitted later
SoldierHorn
7/26/16 10:21am
I'm just going off the timeline that wikipedia has
SUAVO
7/26/16 10:23am
ok but you included...
SoldierHorn
7/26/16 10:30am
Ya, I know. that's just what is said on Wikipedia. Probably hasn't been changed
SUAVO
7/26/16 10:59am
aTm had decided to leave the conference...
SoldierHorn
7/26/16 11:07am
Sounds like 80k tore a page out of that book
SUAVO

If by "flex their muscle" you mean pay millions of dollars

Tulane adds nothing but academics

New Orleans... the #1 recruiting hot-bed city
Dissenter
7/26/16 11:30am
Recruiting "hotbed" is not the reason to expand...
SoldierHorn
7/26/16 1:45pm
Oh, I don't disagree. That's just something else they bring to the table
Dissenter

Could mean scheduling too.

Did ACC add Pitt and Syracuse on the same day?

Timing also depends on Plan A working out versus contingencies. See PAC
boscatar
7/26/16 10:06am
Plan A, B, C, and D should all be BYU and then whoever else they decide on.
BabyJ24
7/26/16 10:09am
Again, context matters. CU would not have been added by itself
SoldierHorn
7/26/16 10:29am
Interesting stuff. I'm not sure what you mean by the B12 flexing its muscle
Bob Vance
7/26/16 10:12am
I don't think that is what it means...
CoachSpeak
7/26/16 12:11pm
And there is by implication a threat to avoid scheduling them.
Bob Vance
7/26/16 12:21pm
Maybe...
CoachSpeak
7/26/16 1:23pm
You've lost me. I get the metaphor and all, but how exactly does the Big 12 do
Bob Vance
7/26/16 1:39pm
The point is....
CoachSpeak
7/26/16 3:07pm
Ultimately, demeanor is irrelevant, if that really is what you are driving
Bob Vance
7/26/16 3:16pm
Demeanor is only part of it...
CoachSpeak
7/26/16 3:43pm
"official" dates dont really say anything without context
SoldierHorn
7/26/16 10:19am
No way in Heck...what is heck lol!

If we have learned anything it's that the Big12 doesn't do things like everyone else.

Utah knew they were in the Pac 12 after west regional

Why didnt you include Big 12 expansion announcement timelines?
NacoCoug
7/26/16 11:44am
i had a client appt and had to post rather than keep writing
nashty
7/26/16 11:50am
just saying, probably the most important context/history to consider
NacoCoug
7/26/16 11:58am
So expansion began right around the time of "The Curse Of Max" ?

Question: could the announcement be waiting on BYU bot meetings/ acceptance
StalwartBraveTrue
7/26/16 5:30pm
I don't see BYU BOT holding things up. You could be right though
BabyJ24
7/26/16 6:35pm
I dont think they will make that mistake again
