Not really what, if any, impact this has on the future of the new Big East. I know a lot of Big East folks were riled up over how BYU acted late in the process of Big East expansion. However, probably a huge win for the Big 12 if it can get BYU to play ball.

Anything that keeps Bevo's eyes away from Louisville or Cincinnati is a good thing for the Big East IMO.

If BYU is accepted, then Louisville will be #12. This is bad news for the Big East.

Adding Memphis, under this scenario, was a much needed strategic move.

Pitino wanted Memphis and got them into BE. He now wants Temple. Will this actually help keep the UoL Cardinals in the BE?
