Interesting and potentially troubling expansion rumors…

Sources say Houston and TCU were “this close” to receiving an invite to the Pac-12

TCU and Houston will again be linked in the same athletic conference, but their future could be west

If there is any truth to this article’s supposition, I’m really hoping the BIG12 has plans to expand even further. Specifically picking up some big name schools/traditional P5 schools and possibly from the PAC12. What do you think about these rumors CB? I’m hoping it’s just rumors. Go Cougs!

Interesting since the Big12 wasn't even going to invite UH until Rockets owner

Really strange two to pick. I guess TCU isn’t a Christian school either. Pac 12

On top of this, TCU isn't a great school

9/12/21 6:04pm

The first two words I think of when I think Pac 12 are Texas and Christian

I don't see that one happening. At all. TCU? Houston? PAC? . . . . Nnnnn-noh.

But they still aren't a strong academic/research university

9/12/21 6:05pm

Access to Dallas & Houston? I 100% buy the pac 12 seriously considered it.

Time for the BIG12 to pirate PAC12 schools

I could see Houston, because it’s a Tier 1 research school.

TCU isn’t really a religious school anymore

I would love to see the big12 pluck a couple pac schools.

I believe AZ alumni would freak out at going to Big12 No way they want to leave

Haha.. Houston.. yeah right... they barely made the cut to the BigXII

UofA, ASU, USC, and UCLA to Big 12 would be a great move for those schools

I guess that's the key to gaining admission to the secular P12: deny Christ.

Now that we have P5 title, we just need to win. Rest will take care of itself.

My opinion: If you're in a P5 conference already that is not Pac12, you must

RebelScum

9/12/21 9:16pm

I don't buy it. Those teams wouldn't have accepted invitations to the Big 12

As long as you change what you believe the Pac 12 will take you.
