YOU STAY AWAY FROM BAYLOR. RT @TomDienhart The Sun Belt might add an 11th school, according to the Miami Herald.
No, the Sun Belt can have KSU. I wouldn't care about that. RT @normmmmy: @DanBeebe would have been funnier had you said k-state.
Wouldn't be surprised if it was Lamar

Commissioner Larry Scott is reportedly seeking a more lucrative contract than the $205 million annual deal the Southeastern Conference signed with CBS and ESPN three years ago. Anything close to that figure would provide a boost to the Pac-12's financially strapped athletic departments.
ESPN and Turner Broadcasting are potential bidders. But industry sources believe the favorites are Comcast, fresh off its merger with NBC-Universal, and Fox Sports. The deal would take effect in 2012-13.
Although not a done deal, sources believe the conference will create its version of the Big Ten Network, probably in conjunction with its broadcast partner.
Ted Turner is going to take over the sporting world.

Surely you've read by now, but the Big 12 signed a 13-year contract with Fox Sports for a reported $1.17 billion. It comes out to $90 million a year, up from the $20 million Fox paid for second-tier rights on its last deal.My thoughts on the issue are clear, but I'm curious about the Big 12 fans' collective thoughts. So, I set up a poll.The question is simple: The Big 12's deal expires in 2025. Do you believe that in 2025, the Big 12 will exist as a 10-team league with the same 10 members as it has right now?Vote in the poll, and I'll process the answers a bit later.
