Big 12 Faces Game-Changing $200 Million Offer: What It Means for 2025 and Beyond
Ah, the Big 12 — a conference that’s been expanding faster than my waistline after Thanksgiving dinner. Since 2023, they’ve gobbled up Arizona, Arizona State, BYU, Cincinnati, Colorado, Houston, UCF, and Utah, trying to fill the gaping hole left by Oklahoma and Texas bolting to the SEC. But here’s the kicker: Memphis just threw down a staggering $200 million offer to join the party. Tempting, right? Yet, despite the cash splash and a “no-risk” proposal where Memphis takes zero distribution for five years (yes, zero!), the Big 12 brass aren’t exactly lining up to roll out the welcome mat. What’s holding them back? Could it be the same conference dance that saw Gonzaga and UConn’s bids tossed aside? Or maybe the Big 12 just isn’t ready to add another cheerleader to the squad. Only time will tell if Memphis makes the leap or sticks with the American Conference for 2025 and beyond. Curious for the full scoop? LEARN MORE.
