no other sources have listed BSU and Memphis as candidates outside the top 4. They make zero sense over Cinci, UCF or UH for both football, basketball, all sports, alumni, finances, etc.
no other sources have listed they are adding just 1 (BYU), let alone only adding 2 additional (adding 3 overall)
and I have a hard time believing adding BYU is worth an additional $90M to the conference than to not add them ($10M X 8 teams.
coming from a "sic 'em" fan source, this is pretty good trolling.
