... in a crappy conference. Get an auto bid. Walk into the 5 spot annually. Just don't sign a long term contract with the Big 12, because as soon as that happens they'll change the rules.

  - The ACC is a far better fit demographically and we're already there in most sports. - Curly1918 - 8:57am 12/3/25
  - Don't necessarily disagree with this, BUT look at Big 12 academic schools rank - dreadful. - LanceManion - 7:50am 12/3/25
    - I say it more to prove the point that they shouldn't even be a consideration in the process. - DiscoRick - 7:53am 12/3/25
      - Agree. If the schools weren't populated by morons, I actually think the Big 12 is a better fit - LanceManion - 7:58am 12/3/25
        Yeah, that's true. The Big 10 anymore would accomplish the goal too. - DiscoRick - 8:01am 12/3/25

- as long as it’s subjective and there is weight given to human evaluation in any form, there are - WestCoastIrishFan - 7:01am 12/3/25
  - Of course, but that's where the guys in charge of governance need to hit on "integrity" - - LanceManion - 7:06am 12/3/25
    - You fix this just like government, make the deliberations public. [NT] - DiscoRick - 7:36am 12/3/25
      - Second choice to an objective standard, but still better than what we have now. - LanceManion - 7:46am 12/3/25
        Sure smells like Tammany Hall. [NT] - DiscoRick - 7:52am 12/3/25
    - Do you really think that's what they did? Or did they produce the result they want and justify it? [NT] - DiscoRick - 7:32am 12/3/25
      - Of course that's what they did. But the story needs to hold up. [NT] - LanceManion - 7:42am 12/3/25
        Yep, it's like saying Ohio St. Is #1 because they beat good Texas, UM, and Illinois teams. [NT] - DiscoRick - 7:49am 12/3/25
        Yep. Which is the argument for joining a shit conference until this all gets consolidated in 10 yrs. [NT] - LanceManion - 7:53am 12/3/25
