SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) -Big 12 commissioner Dan Beebe says he is not expecting the Big Ten to notify him this week that it will be pursuing his members as part of a plan to expand.
Big Ten commissioner Jim Delany said in December the league will explore options for expansion in the next 12 to 18 months. Several Big 12 schools have been speculated to be targets, including Missouri and Texas.
The commissioners of all 11 major college football conferences are gathered at the Royal Palms Hotel this week for BCS meetings.
Beebe said Tuesday he expects to be first to know if the Big Ten decides to make a bid for one of his member schools. He also said that he believes the Big Ten’s timetable to decide on whether to expand has not changed.
