Just an FYI they are taking place this week.
>Newcomers BYU, Cincinnati, Houston and UCF are there are observers. BYU joining in 23-24, The other three are on target to do the same. They are currently negotiating with the AAC to do that. Again, something retiring Big 12 commissioner Bob Bowlsby has mentioned several times that that was the hope.
>We'll see if they talk divisions because it doesn't look like Texas and Oklahoma are leaving earlier than expected. They're in limbo. But if the other four do arrive before UT and OU depart, the league is going to have to do something. I would suspect pending models will be discussed.
>Really no news on who will replace Bowlsby. There is some hope it would be in the summer. Maybe by the Big 12 media days in mid-July. One name that was brought out was Washington State president Kirk Schulz. That seems to have lost some traction.
>They'll announce TV revenue distribution on Friday. Like Bowlsby told me at the NCAA tournament in March, it could be a figure between $40-44 per school. Will let you know when that's announced.
