It's hard to know what the Big 12 is valuing the most when it comes to the schools it's considering bringing into the fold.

Is it the strength of the football program, or the overall athletic department?

Is it the size of the television market should the conference create its own network?

Or is it just whichever school is willing to take the least amount of money to come on board?

Whatever variable the Big 12 desires the most, it should push all of them to the side for these sweet Tulane helmets. Just look at these beauties.

Now, let's consider Tulane's attributes. It's located in New Orleans, so that's pretty cool, and it's a good academic school, but none of that actually matters. These helmets are the one thing the Big 12 truly needs to add to its catalog.

If you look good, you feel good, and if you feel good, you play good.
