We just saw Texas and Oklahoma leave for greener pastures. We saw 10 members of a 12 team Pac-12 leave for money. 2 of em said we'll do it with half the money to not be stuck. Why would anyone left, including us in the MWC, expect different than trying to turn the corner to national relevance?

If these 8 teams in a different conference match the TV payout of the MWC (seems like that's the minimum that would happen), at worst, it's fewer schools to split with. Maybe a benefit of this would be to get out from the awful bowl tie-ins. To get out from the poorly negotiated deal with BSU. Fewer mouths to feed from the NCAA tourney revenue that SDSU gives everyone. There's lots of small reasons to consider it. Obviously it has to make sense, and for only 6 MWC teams to leave and be on the hook for $9m per school (assuming Pac2 assist with that?), that means money and exposure above all.

Having possibly the 6 most visible MWC schools plus 2 former Pac 12 teams and losing Reno, SJSU, Hawaii, USU, Wyoming, and UNM isn't the worst thought. It's probably not the best way either, but that's why I'm not an AD or college president... or anything close.

We didnt think that you meant it in any negative way. We were simply saying that when these young men make their announcements public, there will be a full list. DL Blake Robinett from Texas just announced this morning.

Thank you

He makes thing looks easy. Oregon State is our highest competitor

Watched Leonard vs Duran 1 because today is the day it happened some blank blank years ago and watched it with my roommate.

Holy f’n hell. I think it’s one of the best fit ever saw. These guys throw punches non stop for 15 rounds.

Hard to tell who won..I mean I can’t score boxing anyways.

Weird to see the ref actually let them fight instead of separating them.

Oh and in other news..Roy Jones Jr’s son commits suicide. Awful awful news.

How is this any better than the MWC? Honestly, it's like MWC lite... why would TV contracts be any better than with the 10-12 MWC schools? Besides watching Reno and UNM fans cry about being left in the dust, this conference alignment smells like a bunch of programs who are more likely to disband on each other at the next bigger offer than stick together and make a true P5 conference

Hangover was always just a bad rip-off of Very Bad Things. Check that one out. Much better actors and can never go wrong with Daniel Stern.

You mean I'm not the only one on the planet who doesn't do Twitter or Instagram or any of that shit? I do have Facebook but it's so locked down that I can barely get into it.

OT - I have never been to Vegas (promise to visit after the MW lets my soon to be groveling Cougs into the conference) but I watched The Hangover and parts of Hangover 3 last night. That scene where they come over the rise at night with Vegas in the distance is pretty cool. I like girls, but that Bradley Cooper? I'd let him do me......

Oh and I see that Rivals re-branded. Not impressed.

I was at Sam Boyd when you guys came and thrashed us.

I was walking back to the car on your side of the stadium and some trailer trash frmale UNLV fan was talking smack. I was kinda embarassed.

Like if you click on Media it gives you some sources that can be used. Is that what you mean?

Didn't mean it that way, I just thought they had already announced, and since I do not have twitter, I had just missed it.
