At this point, the Big XII is officially dead. Texas ain't gonna stick around a dying conf. when greener pastures are to be had.

The south (sans Baylor) is already gone. Its just a question of how the rest of it shakes out.  :embarrassed:

This is going to take some getting used to. Somehow being a member of a conference with "Mountain" or "East" in its name just seems wrong on many levels.

Any word from the NU presser????

I am assuming this  http://www.kmbc.com/video/23870353/index.html   is live but im not seeing or hearing anything from the vid..
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

810 will cut in when they get to the expansion. right now it's just a board meeting. not a presser

Btw, why would someone claim to have or be proud of old ballz?

None. New league with best football schools from Big East, those Big 12 schools left out of the shuffle and Mountain West.

In this order for obvious reasons.

1. Big East -
pluses:  frank would get recruits.  would be very weird and awkward all the time.  most "prestige" of the non-prestige having choices
minuses:  wouldn't last


2. Mountain West
pluses:  is probably the long term solution.  great roadys.
minuses:  we would be nobody.  even nobody'er than we are already...which is a lot.


3. Conference USA
pluses:  none
minuses:  we would be in conference usa

I'm still hoping for the Big 12(10) to stick together. I'm probably in the minority though. :(
Sometimes I think of the Book of Job and how God likes to really eff with people.

i reluctantly agree with this. i would prefer the mountain west but they prob couldnt get a BCS out of it which makes big east more sense.

Mountain West: I think this will allow us to be competitive in all sports, and it will soon be a BCS conference. The Big East would be my first choice, but I just don't know who will be left in the conference after the Big 10 and ACC get done with it. Conference USA can go to hell.
