Why wouldnt the existing Big 12 just take the best AAC teams?

Looking at who has left, and what they have done, maybe they are that dumb?

Because that's the best choice and the BIG12 hasn't followed the best route

Give me a 20 team league with an upper/lower division with promotion/relegation.

this would make no sense. The Big12 would be waiving all of their claims

This isn't going to go the B12's way in the end.

And they'd forfeit their CFP money, the Sugar Bowl and their NCAA basketball money

Would that make the AAC a 19-team league?

AAC has 12 football schools participating

He was just the mouthpiece. He only does what his Presidents tell him to do

At this point, he's likely just doing whatever he can to keep his job alive.

He's not acting on his own. He is doing whatever the B12 tells him to do.

Normally I'd agree but, in this situation, he may not have anyone giving him

That makes no sense. If you keep the B12 intact you keep all those exit fees

They would lose. That’s why they are trying to work these back alley deals
