Conversations around the Big 12 potentially adding Gonzaga and the University of Connecticut are “no longer,” commissioner Brett Yormark said on the “Marchand and Ourand Sports Media Podcast” on Wednesday. Here’s what you need to know:

Yormark — who assumed his role a year ago this month — said the possibility of adding UConn and Gonzaga only lapsed because his conference was able to carry out its ideal expansion plans.
