SAN ANTONIO -- What is best for the greater good of the Big 12?
That’s the tricky question the league’s most powerful people seem destined to debate over the next few months. In February meetings and again later in Phoenix, it’s time to put all the options back on the table.
Last year, the impetus for such talks centered around the College Football Playoff and a fear the Big 12 was living in a “disadvantaged” position. This time, it’s the loud comments of Oklahoma president David Boren trying to lead a charge for change.
Boren wants to see three changes happen now, not later, to repair what he calls the league’s “little brother” status: Expansion, conference title game, Big 12 Network.
