Crazy times. Ross Dellinger & Brett McMurphy both reporting a couple of hours ago that Memphis offered the Big Twelve in between 200-250 Million dollars to buy their selves into the Big Twelve.

On top of that they were adding be able to deliver major sponsorship- -( Fed-Ex ) . There would not be any money/revenue share given to Memphis for the first five years, -- there would be right at three Million given to each Big Twelve School 7 - -And Memphis was also adding a self explosion if at the end of I think 2030 the Big Twelve decided that Memphis was bringing nothing to the table.- --The Big Twelve's response to this offer from Memphis trying to buytheir way into the Big Twelve---NO THNANKS.- - lots of pro's and cons on both sides to this story.

Big Twelve critical of SMU buying their way into the ACC , what do you think ?- -Should of w took the offer or no ?

No way. Bad academics, basketball is on probation, small market.

@FarmerJayhawk not gonna pass not going to get the vote, but guess they was thinking about it for some time. doesn't matter to me one way or anothre

@FarmerJayhawk I was thinking the same but you never know. All that could be said about WV and we still added them at the time when supposedly Louisville and Cincinnati were in talks with the conference.

This will be interesting to watch as it helps provide a window into what really drives expansion.

The big thing is that they volunteered they would be taking no revenue, none , zero , zelch in the first five years . Offered a absolutely no risk clause as to where if at te end of the Contract and they showed us where they wee bringing NOTHING to the league at all, they would or we could boot them out no questions asked.

The big thing is they are on probation AGAIN. Do we really want something like that ? putting more back eye perspective from general public ? I don't know each school getting around that extra three million-- money speaks pretty loud, Big corporate partnerships -- -- Fed - Ex--- -Home Depot. I Don't know , does pro's out weigh the cons ?
