rumors of a second round...maybe if KU +1 get an invite elsewhere?

or, a legit attempt to get to 14 and corral the best of the remaining Group of Five schools?
I mean at this point, why not? Add them because after those 2 schools, there is not much left unless you consider Colorado St and Missouri St Big12 material. Colorado St. I could get behind though.

I mean, KSU’s tweet is pretty damn funny. The KU one makes it look like they want to go to the Big 10

And how does the KU gram only have 11k followers. I mean, that’s only like 65% of AFH

It’s ascii art and in the Twitter character limit, it’s supposed to look low effort

i get it (see my sig line, which is way more clever)

i just don’t have the appreciation for it that you do

edit: they didn’t even try to put a powercat in there...surely some statie undergrad has already done one

...and yet still vastly inferior to the SEC and B1G.
What hurts is not having an alpha dog in football.

We're still a solid conference depth-wise, but without OU we don't have an alpha, and don't seem to have a team that can emerge as one.

Texas hasn't been a national power for more than a decade, so they weren't helping much anyway.

But a consistent top-tier team is what the conference is missing. I just don't see a school that can sustain greatness. TCU, or OSU could have a great year or two, but we don't have a perennial power. Baylor was a flash in the pan.
I only came to kick some ass...

Rock the fucking house and kick some ass.

Could have been worse, could have been Echo-Kat welcoming them.

A few in. What's going on here? Goff saying the Big 12 isn't a great spot to be in financially?

Might be a pitch to increase donations. But otherwise Goff probably should STFU there. That is like your agent mentioning your lack of fitness.
