The Big 12 had taken Louisville and Cincinnati when they added TCU and West Virginia. That was definitely a miscalculation on their part and it is one of the reasons why they find themselves in their current straits.
I get why it happened. Texas was holding a gun to the heads of everyone else and the other members had no choice but to capitulate to UT’s demands.
Think about how different the entire landscape would look had they added Louisville and Cincinnati to go along with West Virginia and TCU. The B12 would be in a radically different position and the ACC would’ve had no choice but to replace Maryland with Connecticut.
Big mistake in my opinion.
