The Florida State/Clemson romance with the Big 12 has gone past the blogosphere and now is being discussed by people involved in the decision-making. Florida State athletic director Randy Spetman declared the Seminoles’ commitment to the Atlantic Coast, but a day later, Andy Haggard, chairman of FSU’s board of trustees, ripped the ACC’s new television contract with ESPN and said his school absolutely should look at the Big 12. Even Florida State football coach Jimbo Fisher didn’t discount the validity of considering such a move.
Yahoo! Sports’ Dan Wetzel speculated that Miami, not Clemson, could be Florida State’s partner in a potential move to the Big 12.
Still seems like a longshot, but it’s gone past the pure speculation stage. It’s at least been tossed out there by a school official. So my question is, what would the Big 12 look like with Florida State and Clemson? Or Florida State and Miami? Or Florida State and Louisville, I suppose.
