OU prez David Boren: Big 12 should "strive" for expansion back to 12 teams

If television money isn't an issue and it adds value, there's now one loud and important conference voice for perpetuating a little more conference realignment.

Oh, look -- reliagnment is in the news again!

Just when you thought it had gone away again after the retrospective pieces from the five-year anniversary of the Big 12's Nuclear Missile Crisis approximation, Oklahoma Sooners president David Boren sent realignment news back into the collective college football consciousness by boldly claiming that sticking with 10 members could be a "debilitating" long-term decision:

"I think it's something we should strive for while we have the time, stability, all of that to look and be choosy," Boren said.
