Big 12 officially extends invitations to BYU, UCF, Cincinnati and Houston

The Big 12 is officially set to add four members to the conference, with Brigham Young, Central Florida, Cincinnati, and Houston all receiving invitations on Friday.

The Big 12 Conference Board of Directors unanimously voted this morning to extend the membership invites.

Individual school boards will meet later Friday to formally accept their offers.

According to college football insider Brett McMurphy, the schools’ first season in the Big 12 will be 2023. This would allow new members to play in the conference with Oklahoma and Texas still there, barring an early departure from the Sooners and Longhorns.
