Big 12 commissioner Brett Yormark made a bold declaration on Tuesday.
Yormark spoke at the Big 12 Media Days at The Star in Frisco, Texas. He has been the Big 12 commissioner for nearly three years and has done big things with the conference. Under his leadership, the Big 12 survived and expanded while the Pac-12 contracted and was pilfered. Yormark feels his conference is just getting started.
“I believe we will be the deepest football conference in America,” Yormark said. “No league offers the competitive balance that we do … I fully expect the Big 12 to earn multiple College Football Playoff bids this year, and to show once again that we can compete with anyone.”
