Hustlin backwards. League office should’ve been on the phone yesterday with Cal, Stanford, UW, Oregon & the Arizona schools


I agree with the "why". The Big 12 isn't a player. Just like the ACC and the PAC aren't. Everyone else is just waiting to see where they get in on those two sides. Big 12 expanding now is pointless. Why expand a dead conference? Just doing extra paperwork and painting a bunch of logos for 2-3 years at most.

What does an Oregon or Washington add to the B10?

They'll round out the big10 west when the top acc schools join to round out the big10 east or however it shakes out.

There's going to be two super conferences and we already know which two they'll be. Anything else is a lateral move and a time waste.

Interesting ya'll think ole boy is passing up money to stay at Iowa

I mean he literally said “there’s a good chance I could get some money at Iowa” as in it hasn’t happened or hasn’t been offered.

So, he’s passing up what was on the table to stay at Iowa as it stands now.

He mentions academics and long term future, but Iowa has an 85% acceptance rate, not to mention that $1M invested well can provide more financial security than a college degree. Not like the other schools wouldn’t provide him the opportunity to earn a degree, and it’s not like he chose Stanford or Berkeley…

The big ten need ND more than ND need the big ten :hubie:ND will get special treatment:yeshrug:

The conference expansion will be held up by ND as they process a decision, but yall in a pick your poison situation…either begrudgingly join the big ten, or accept your fate in the SEC. You’ll make more money w/ the big ten’s media deal than you’re making on your own, and moving forward the SEC won’t have the media markets to leverage as large of a deal as the big ten with the top 3 media markets.

Miami, FSU, Clemson, and a 4th school will but assured be out of the ACC

as a Miami fan I’m torn between the SEC and Big 10 super conferences :patrice:

On one hand I think the Big 10 is a more natural cultural fit, but being in the SEC means we’d get to play Florida again every year which would be crazy. Also positive from a recruiting perspective
