Seems to me that Big 12 expansion, without merging with the PAC 12, would create better options for us.

That makes a lot more sense than a conference with Ok State, Baylor, SMU and Memphis

Edit misread headline. So new response. 
 

There’s just not enough value left to do full on merger. TCU, Baylor, Tech, Iowa State are filler. They’ve got good fan bases that may not be so large if a season ticket doesn’t get you Texas or OU and ESPN has you in slots that AAC and Sun Belt have been in.

Bingo - how much you want to bet that their season tickets numbers plummet once UT and OU are not in the picture.
