[QUOTE="Pitt4Life34, post: 131721847, member: 1068868"] I‘m not sure what the end game is Allen but Texas has held the growth and brand expansion of the Big12 back for a long time. Obviously money drives the bus but you would think the stability of the conference would hold some value. Texas just doesn’t care about their conference partners. I think the Big12 has a geopolitic need if nothing else. It has lots of tradition with two power house programs to market a brand. I believe Big12 survives. Personally I wish there would be 4 Super Conferences allowing WVU/Pitt to resurrect their glorious rivalry and partnership. Both programs are better with each other. As I’ve said to PItt Trustees, Admin, Lair members and anyone that would listen Pitt should eliminate all athletic relationships in all sports with Penn State and go arm and arm with WVU in all sports forever.
