Unconquered

Anyone have any idea how reliable that dude posting on Scout is?

Not sure just thought it looked official enough to pass on.

Since West Virginia is not actually in the Big 12 or that is what I understand. Luck could be having the conversation between everyone and therefore it would not be tampering by us. But that is just a guess and I am not a legal person.

I wish, but I doubt this guy knows what he is talking about.

I'm on Scout as well, from what I hear this dude is pretty knowledgeable and is a credible source. Another guy on the Longhorns site says he has close ties with the athletic department at UT and has said it's pretty much a done deal. The Big 12 has been going through the back channels with FSU and others for a while, BEFORE the Big 12/SEC agreed to a BCS Bowl. The SEC knew about the Big 12 going after FSU and others to strengthen their conference..........one big reason they agreed from what I'm hearing.

Whoever MHver3 is, that guy has yet to be wrong. Take this as true insider info......

Exactly. Obviously when the Pac-12/B1G 10 made their deal, the SEC and Big 12 was going to fall in line with their own deal. So the Big 12, already having interest in FSU, probably told the SEC its plans to strengthen the conference through expansion. I am under the impression that the Big 12 wants to only go back to 12 teams, so it's FSU and most likely Clemson if it's 12. We will see though.

My sources confirm an agreement in principle has been reached for Clemson to join the Big12.
