Big 12 commissioner Brett Yormark, speaking to reporters after league meetings in Phoenix, says his league supports expansion of the NCAA Tournament. Commissioners will soon meet with Charlie Baker about it.

College sports is really determined to kill itself. I cannot stand Yormark, who's just going to give more of this money to the SEC/BIG 10 under the guise of helping the Big 12...

I'd guess the thinking is that more games = more advertising dollars, which eventually finds some of its way into the B12 and other leagues.

Whatever their thinking imo it seems like the tourney is right sized tho.

You think he's a mole?

They can easily expand the field by adding more play-in games.

No I think he's a self promoter and self serving, his "marketing" really hasn't done squat for the conference thus far. I don't think he's making a hard push to find a way to save the non SEC Big 12 schools and caves because it just gets a little more money and another story on ESPN with his name when he does something in conjunction with them good for the conference or not.
