So, Big 10 expansion is not accelerated?
So, D day hasn't arrived for the Big East. Maybe this drags out another year and gets kicked until the next BCS agreement. Much ado about nothing if this is accurate.
Who knows?
SCOTTSDALE , Ariz. — Prying answers out of Big Ten Commissioner Jim Delany has been a challenge — even for colleagues of his who are skittish about the effects of Big Ten expansion.
"I tried (to put) him in a headlock, but he's a tough guy," Big 12 Commissioner Dan Beebe joked.
Day one of the Bowl Championship Series meetings concluded Tuesday with no formal discussion about expansion.
"Informally," Beebe said with a chuckle, "there has been plenty."
Delany has informed colleagues that, contrary to a Tribune report, the timetable for Big Ten expansion has not been accelerated from the period of 12-to-18 months that was announced in December.
"You know, Jim wouldn't be one of the top commissioners and one of the top sports people in the country if he didn't take things into very careful consideration," Beebe said.

Now we have the Big East commish talking about 20 teams in the Big East! Total madness.
I have a feeling that when the dust settles, the Big Ten just invites Missouri to get to 12.
