isn't HUGE?? The Big12 will be marginalized by the Big10 and SEC's apologists every chance it gets, football, basketball, waterpolo, you name it. The reason the Big12 is going to stay relevant is because they're dominant in "the other" sport. You saw how quickly football was relegated to near-G5 status in the minds of decision makers. If you really call that WCC mentality, you're missing that basketball is our conference's seat at the table.
