Sports Take: The potential four new Big 12 schools are all good for the conference

By Marquis Cooley | Sports Editor

In the wake of the University of Texas and the University of Oklahoma announcing their departure from the Big 12 to head to the Southeastern Conference, the Big 12 created a four person expansion committee that included Baylor’s own Director of Intercollegiate Athletics, Mack Rhoades. The committee got to work quickly and have now reportedly found four teams they want to add to the conference by the end of the week: Brigham Young University, the University of Houston, the University of Central Florida and the University of Cincinnati. While none of these schools can replace what UT and OU brought to the Big 12, in terms of revenue, they would all be great additions.
