Would, love for Gonzaga (basketball only) to join the Pac 6 with UNLV.

LOL.. they would need to offer a really really good deal at this point for UNLV to not stay put and wait for those 6 to come crawling back... They tried to take out the king and it didnt work.
What it does tell you is they had no plans t pay the exit fees for the AAC teams and the anticipated revenue for TV is either equal or close enough that it didnt make sense to move. So why not play hard ball and keep getting the cash. They now need the MWC 8 more than we need them

I may need to peak in on the Coug board to see what they're saying

They are REALLY aggressive on defense. Chunk plays, most likely won't be on the ground. I'm not talking about Sluka doing his magic on pass plays when no one is open. Designed runs will be necessary to free us up in the pass game or RPO/options plays, but Fresno is pretty good up front.

@Loyal Coug1 I take it back about rushing the field after beating SJSU. Imagine being turned down by UTSA.

UTSA a no also. I know I am a broken record, but the PAC is not a respected brand.

wow, this is definitely not what I expected. Of all of those teams, they seemed like the sure thing to go, assuming they were being offered equal revenue sharing. But, I'd guess, that they were only offered a partial share for now.

That’s really funny.

Possibly. But even if so, it certainly lowers any amount of leverage that the new PAC has with regards to inviting new schools. If all of the other schools really wanted to screw over these 6, they could. I don't think that's how it will shake out, but it's not likely that UNLV or any other schools will take a smaller slice of the pie, if that's what the PAC comes in offering.

100%. Pac2 + 4 traitors have lost ALL leverage. They are the entity in need at this point. Will only have 6. Need to get to 8. No TV deal. No Memphis (for now). No Tulane (for now).

UTSA a no also. I know I am a broken record, but the PAC is not a respected brand.

It should have been what they were expecting (if true). I've been hearing this since the beginning. It made sense for Memphis and Tulane to listen, but their sights are set on Big12 or ACC.

Maybe 4th or 5th times a charm for them,... If it all works out, we get a boatload of money, get an increased revenue promise, and then screw SDSU/Boise at the same time, level the revenue playing field with regards to Boise's preferred status...

LOL.. Now we wait to see what $$ they throw at either the next tier MWC schools or back at the MWC to take them

LVRebel2000 said:

Yeah, this is probably NOT what the new PAC was expecting. If true, and they aren't able to get those schools, you'd think that it will lower the estimated new PAC contract, which they must have been selling the the MWC4 that left. So now, you're at 6. What are you going to do?

6th in the league when you tied for first isn't great. Even terrible ass SDSU drew more fans last year.

It is sad. Was last season, season #1 in Snapdragon?

Regardless, we should pull more than the Aztecs.

I've lived here my entire life and I still disagree with the term "We will support a winner." Not true. People of Las Vegas will support a team that gives them clout in the community. 85% of Golden Knights fans drive Range Rovers and have their nannies pick up their kids from private school. Even in seasons where the Knights are good but not Stanley Cup contenders the talk of the town decreases. The flags aren't as flown nearly as proudly. Hockey fans talk hockey but Golden Knights fans are zzzzzz...

It will take a huge momentum switch for Las Vegas residents to see UNLV sports attendance as something to go on their IG reels. Free glass of wine and allowing dogs to be brought in purses smaller than 9" x 11" would be a good start.
