Meanwhile, the Mountain West is looking at possibly poaching the AAC.

I guess both the Big 12 and the MWC are trying to poach teams. :D

Supports why #UH even had a two-hour meeting today with Big 12, per @PatrickEngel_.
Ralph D. Russo‏ @ralphDrussoAPHeard Big 12 asked for a high level of detail about local airports. And detailed reports about all sports programs.

Yeah, if they expand, it's going to be UTEP, Rice, UNT, etc. Even minus UH the AAC is better.

I think we may also need to make a pitch about potentially getting a baseball team. Big 12 is a huge baseball conferance as well. UH also has a top 25 baseball team and most of the other schools have one as well. May not be a glaring mark against us but probably doesn't help that we don't have one.
