    Also, from Pete Thamel:
    Here's the expected process of the Big 12 vote today. The president vote is this morning to extend the invitations to BYU, Cincinnati, UCF and Houston. The four schools have to accept the invitation. Again, all this is a formality. We should have an announcement this afternoon.

    • The live feed is not up yet. I'm guessing we're waiting on the existing members of the conference to vote. (Unless they're doing it by video conference, they're all stuck in Dallas traffic, lol)

      • Here's a breakdown of how each of the four B12 entrants have done versus P5 schools over the past ten years:

          From a hoops standpoint, the Big 12 getting Houston, BYU, Cincinnati and UCF is a nice save after losing Texas and Oklahoma.

          Houston has been terrific under Kelvin Sampson, BYU is a national program, Cincinnati should get back to relevance under Wes Miller and UCF is solid.

              The University of Cincinnati’s Special Meeting of the Board of Trustees has ended. Board voted to grant UC President Neville Pinto authority regarding a decision on the university’s athletic conference membership. This was a formality. One final announcement to go. #Bearcats

                    This was a unanimous vote per the Enquirer.

                        The Big 12 Conference Board of Directors this morning voted to extend membership invitations to Brigham Young University, the University of Central Florida, the University of Cincinnati, and the University of Houston to join the Conference.

                        Today’s actions were in accordance with Big 12 Conference Bylaw 1.5.2.b.3 requiring an affirmative vote of a supermajority of Directors, and was approved unanimously by the eight continuing members.

                        As necessary, institutional Boards will be in session today to act on Big 12 Conference membership. Videoconference announcements with Big 12 Board of Directors Chairman and Texas Tech University President Lawrence Schovanec, Big 12 Commissioner Bob Bowlsby, and campus representatives are scheduled today at the following times:

                        Houston – 11:00 a.m. CT
                        BYU – 11:30 a.m. CT
                        UCF – 2:45 p.m. CT
                        Cincinnati – 3:30 p.m. CT
