Big 12 Media Days are underway and the new commissioner, Brett Yormark, is introducing himself to the media for the first time. I wonder how that’s going…
Yormark said he wants the Big 12 to be "a little bit more national, a little younger, hipper, cooler."

“We remember the Sugar Bowl, I think it my junior year of high school, we let Alabama beat us twice,” Brinson said of a team that also lost to the Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship game. “We’re not letting Alabama beat us twice. In the Sugar Bowl in 2018, they… thought they should have been in the playoffs and lost to Texas.” -- AB-H, 12/27/23
And how, pray tell, does a conference make itself “hipper” and “cooler”? Probably via the kind of marketing campaign that Larry Scott would kill to be a part of.

Geoff Collins will be able to make the younger, hipper & cooler (at least in his mind) no later than early December. Not to mention that Mullen is currently available.

Yes, these football teams comprised of 18-22 year olds and being coached primarily by men in their 30s and 40s are very stuffy and ancient.

Dawgdaddy beat me to it, but Coach Capri Pants was the first person that came to mind when I read this. Maybe this guy can do some wakeboarding like Dopey/Goofy on Grapevine Lake before heading to a CFP committee meeting.
