Big 12 Commissioner address possible addition of UConn: 'Big brands, big markets, big fanbases matter'
Big 12 Commissioner Brett Yormark speaks during Big 12 NCAA college football media days in Las Vegas Tuesday, July 9, 2024. Amid growing rumblings that UConn could join the Big 12 Conference in the next couple of years, Commissioner Brett Yormark joined FOX’s Big Noon Kickoff pregame show on Saturday.
“We’re blessed to have the four corners with us, and when you have big brands, that leads to greater parity and depth in the conference,” Yormark said.”I think that was indicative when you think of the Preseason AP Top 25. We had five in there, the first time since 2017. So I’m thrilled with our depth, and that depth starts right here in Morgantown.”No. 8 Penn State of the Big Ten proceeded to beat West Virginia, 34-12, while fellow Big Ten member Maryland dominated UConn, 50-7.
According to multiple reports, UConn made an in-person presentation to Big 12 officials three weeks ago, and the reported plan would be for the Big East school to join the Big 12 in all sports by 2026.
