    No. If it is based on conjecture most here post IMO or some such qualifier.

    IMO, ESPN is THE worst source out there. They are the NBC of sports. Yes, they get it right sometimes, but they are not reliable.

    There was a lot of SPECULATION going on at that time. Don't know what was being said/planned behind closed doors of lower Big 12 schools, though.

    Re: P5 and G5

    So why am I getting called to the carpet over ESPN? There was a lot of speculation, things didn't happend a certain way, but thats not to say it won't play out that way next time. A lot of folks in the know from P-5 schools were saying what I have said in thread 4 years ago.

    Where do you guys get some of this stuff? You couldn't be more wrong about TX A&M. Just take a breath and research some of this stuff before posting.

    And MD, you could not be more wrong about Baylor, Kansas, KSU, et al.... My daughter attended Baylor at that time, and I can tell you the school's leadership was GENUINELY concerned about being left behind by the the Big XII schools who had invites to the PAC 10 (now PAC 12).

    I typicaly read a post and immediately respond to it. Especially when I know the info is bad. I don't usually read an entire thread before responding to a single post. That's what happened here.

    That's cool. We were just discussing the fact that we can't decide what to call ourselves G5 or Nerds-5.

    How about S5 for Spoiler 5? Or some other choices:
    NSP 5 - Non Semi-Pro 5
    RUF 5 - Real University 5
    NM 5 - Non-Monopoly 5
    RCS 5 - Real College Sports 5
    WL 5 - Waiting List 5

    May as well, label ourselves and give the media a term, instead of letting them determine it.

    Don't most conferences still need the Vandy, Wake, or Northwestern types to at least keep up the front that it is all about academics?
