Big 12 commissioner Brett Yormark set some ambitious goals for his first year at the helm. But in just six months since taking over, he’s managed to cross the Top 2 off of his list and has moved on to the third.

Hours after it was announced that the Big 12 and Oklahoma and Texas had negotiated the bell cows’ early exit in 2024 — the Red River rivals will reportedly owe the league a combined $100 million in exit fees — Yormark now has his eyes set on further conference expansion, according to Ross Dellenger of Sports Illustrated.
