Yes all true.

However they waited three years from date of announced leaving and still paid 100 million to leave one year early. LOl

FSU has 13 years to go. What do you think? What 500 million to get out??

Not going to happen.

for a bunch of regular ol message board posters y'all are pretty damn confident in yourself and pretty proud of your opinion.

All I'm saying is what I've read, that its been discussed and not out if the realm of possibility.

Money is not a real impossible hurdle. Paricularly depending on the contracts offered by a new conferences TV contract if it were to be available.

Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

Good for the Big XII. Too bad we don't get to travel to Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and Louisiana. Come for the humidity, stay for the Middle Ages.

I'm hearing that either Utah or one of the Arizona schools will be the first domino to drop.

Yes I think the Arizona schools go first and then Utah and CU aren't far behind.

Gold and Blue Dude from YouTube passed away. I enjoyed watching his goofy takes. He dressed up like a clown when WVU lost to KU last year. Talked a lot about wild realignment rumors mostly for fun. He was always in a lot of pain. Did not not realize he had severe Crohn's disease. I think he was just scraping by with his family. May shoot them some money as he has a fund me memorial page. Hit me hard because he was a great person.

I'm sorry, Sparko. Sounds like you lost a good pal.

Best wishes to you and his family.
Please, I implore you to be reasonable...

i may be missing something, but san diego state seems just as worthy of an invite, if not more, than cu.

Their new football stadium has zero protection from the sun, but I wouldn't mind going to San Diego every now and again.

My favorite city to visit.

I can't see the link. Stupid connection issues. But I saw Dellinger's article today. Yormark sure is aggressive for the Big 12.

Well hell this is an interesting read. It was the Big 12 that gave the ACC the Grants to rights contract.

This is not anything new. The key is in our media rights deal. Any school we add gets 31.7 million as long as they are coming from a power five conf. Just waiting for Pac 12 to announce their new deal which they of course do not want to do because if its less than that then poof four corners schools all gone.
The longer the Pac 12 drags this out the more likely they coming.
