Texas-to-Big Ten Rumors Heat Up

According to this link, the NCAA's Big 10 Conference has its eyes on the University of Texas as a new member. So let me get this straight...

If UT joins the "Big 10" it will have twelve members, and

If UT leaves the "Big 12" (formerly the "Big 8" and before that the "Big 6" with a brief stop in between as the "Big 7") it will have eleven members.

When I worked in Higher Ed, I worked in a federally funded TRIO program. When I left, there were eight TRIO programs.

Names, sometimes they just mean we're not in Kansas anymore. That's either the University of Kansas or K-State.

  1. Not to worry. You have to be able to read and write to play in the Big Ten. So, Texas is basically out. You can relax. It's a non-issue.
