how much is Houston in the big 12 worth for UT? more than another campus?

Houston is the biggest city in Texas....in the South really. So it's an additional TV market for a Big 12 Network.

And with them having Herman right now and making noise...if they're ever gonna join it's gotta be now. That owuld even ensure Herman probably stays longer.

I say add Houston, Cincinatti (easy travel game to/for WVU).

So would Texas give up their network to get a big 12 network? I can't see them doing that.
I'm just confused. Is being in the big 12 worth more than having UT build a campus down the street for houston?

Being in a weak conference and not surrounded by superpowers helps y'all.

But you could go decades without winning a national championship.

Ohio kids aren't good enough to win a title. Period.
More ohio kids with college n nfl rings than Tenn kids and more in the nfl period. Sec east weak just like them Tenn kids. Rocky top aint shyt and they high school football is ass. Ohio football shyts on Tenn football at every level.

I Dont know anything about UT building a campus in Houston.

The Big 12 supposedly got back on this expansion thing after seeing the ACC was getting a real network. They know we have to have one.....but you gotta get more teams first and be able to have championship game

I agree.

Once again you keep thinking I'm a Tennessee fan. I only follow great players and teams. Right now Its Tennessee's time.

Ohio State is a much better program historically than Tennessee and with a better recruiting base should be for the foreseeable future. However, that doesn't mean Ohio State is a top 5 program.

I'll take LSU, Georgia, USC, Texas, and the Florida schools over them.
