Big 12 talk is back thanks to Texas.

Wow, what a flippin mess. Still though, with the poor start that Mack Brown is having, i wouldnt be shocked if Saban is their coach next January.

Subsequent stories have come out that they have been trying to get Saban since the day after last year's title game. Mack Brown is toast.

i would agree, but see very little tie in with expansion. texas looks out for texas, so if the bricks fell into place to sweeten their pot(s), then maybe so, but it's about the $ right now.

Here is some very interesting info on Texas and Div 4. Listen to segments 2&3, there's mention of UC in 3. But most disturbing is we could be leap frogged by N. Illinois or Buffalo. Don't know who this guy is.

Fire up the Big 12 talk.

Orangebloods.com story in the DMN has DeLoss Dodds stepping aside as AD at Texas by the end of 2013. If this happens, big if, The Big 12 might expand in 2015. Texas and it's money pile is the big hold up to adding teams. According to the OB article the new AD may step in as soon as mid year with Dodds taking a consultant role and have input on hiring to replace Mack Brown, Rick Barnes and Auggie Guarrido(sp?), the baseball coach.

Is Chip Brown right this time? Who knows..but where there's smoke.....
