Message: [QUOTE="zls44, post: 161599, member: 1146"] [Edited to add a couple of thoughts] I don't think the Big 12 would have gone to WVU first. I think it's the ends trying to justify the means. Nobody on Earth wants WVU as more than a warm body. The Big 12 doesn't need another FB power. They needed another body. The first domino in all this was the ACC move. The SEC [I]could[/I] have gone to 14 before that. But they weren't going to [I]until[/I] that. And SU/Pitt made it happen. I think we identified the arguments both sides (SU & Pitt/BE) would use in court. SU/Pitt would use the technicality argument, while the Big East would use the "if you didn't leave, this never happens" argument. [/QUOTE]
