Jason Scheer which has been on top of these actions has been pretty spot on, - -he is the inside reporter for Arizona - -just like Swain is for KU. He tweeted out that there is a real chance that Yormark also goes ahead and invites Gonzaga & U Conn for Basketball only - and the League to expand to 18.
It’s ben known for some time Yormark wants U Conn pretty bad to get into that Northeastern section , and to get the New York Media. Brett has been in discussions again with both Schools and they feel he will be able to get th approval with the School presidents - -. Brett is doing this as I’ve said before , he is fully aware that football is the money maker BUT also feels and wants to make up a totally separate media agreement for Basketball as it being up and coming in revenue
I’m telling you don’t be shocked if Brett gets this done, he has been pretty impressive with what he hsa accomplished in his 1st yr as Commissioner - - he has been very aggressive isn’t sitting still and doing nothing , like a shark in bloody waters. - -He was smart and beat the PAC in getting a new media deal, leaving the PAc stranded to where Georgie was doing nothing. Brett got the media deal done and then was able to focus on getting these PAC 12 Schools. - -He got the deal done in Mexico as has been stated, he wants the Big 12 even better,-- don’t be surprised , in the end if this doesn’t get done.- -However there is as Jason said still a lot of work to be done for that to happen
