“Well, I don’t want to get into the specifics and I appreciate the question,” Yormark said via the Athletic when asked about further Big 12 expansion. “But obviously going out west is where I would like to go, entering that fourth time zone. A program that has national recognition. One that competes at the highest level in basketball and football, stands for the right things, is a good cultural fit. Because our alignment right now and the like-mindedness of all of our member institutions is fantastic. It’s never been better. So I don’t want to compromise that and that’s critically important that there is the right cultural fit when you think about coming in and being part of what we’re building here.”

Obviously talking about U of Hawaii

Arizona is basically in its own time zone since it doesn’t do DST.

That’s going away, though.

What are the right things he is referring to, I wonder?

It has to be equal revenue sharing. We literally did nothing about an enabling rape culture and murder cover up.  What on earth could possibly be a necessary cultural requirement for a god damn sports conference member?

[Pete]

We just invited maybe THE MOST racist and sexist school ever to join the conference and this mother rough rider is talking about cultural fit?

No it's not, that bill only passed the Senate

Aw crap I missed that.  Hopefully they can pass it through this fall.

Get to 20:
Pac 12 - Colorado, Arizona, Arizona State, Utah, Oregon State, Washington State (where we reunite with the Animal)
Non Pac-12 - SDSU, South Florida

Conference could produce content in all US Time Zones.

What is this “four corners schools” that they are talking about? Which corners?

[Spracne]

Is this a serious question? If so, Arizona, Arizona State, Utah, and Colorado.

Oh the geographic states touching thing. I was thinking the 4 farthest flung schools.

I'm certain the Utah AD is his source and is the one who said this. Canzano did the Utah AD no favors by saying it was a current four corners AD.

While we're calling out silly crap, the tech people on twitter who think the pacific time zone quote might be about Oregon, need to take several time outs.

[wetwillie]

Yea Utah has someone convinced themselves they are a powerhouse school now. It’s quite a site to behold.
