The Herald-Dispatch: Bowlsby: Big 12 is not interested in expansion
By TOM BRAGG HD Media
League commissioner Bob Bowlsby shot down the idea of adding new members to the conference during his introductory press conference Monday at Big 12 Media Days at AT&T Stadium.
"We like the 10 we have," Bowlsby said. "We think the full round-robin is the right way to conduct competition and in the case of our basketball, full round-robin. We are distributing record revenues and we have heretofore unanticipated media opportunities and I don't expect that to be an active topic on anybody's agenda within the conference any time in the foreseeable future."
Bowlsby also offered new details on the Big 12's new digital broadcast partnership with ESPN. The new digital network will be called "Big 12 Now" and will be available, behind a paywall, on ESPN+.
