Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)
- Thread starter ISUcyclones11
- Start date
Lots of guessing and then 2nd guessing, with no one actually knowing anything.
The talk of the lesser schools getting booted from B1G/SEC is silly. The one thing the elites want more than money is wins. If all the lesser schools get kicked to the curb, it will be much harder for the Alabamas and Ohio States of the world to get their 10+ wins a year.

I’m very comfortable with Spartys position in all this. We’re also 10-4 against Michigan the last 14 years, been to a playoff, won the big ten multiple times, and are one of the top 15 teams in terms of ratings.
I also went to both so I won’t argue that Michigan is better academically and certainly has been historically better in football but I’m confident both schools will be fine.
I don’t think ISU, let alone the athletic director, had much bearing on ISU staying in the AAU. State politics and national demographics decided for us.
Edit: by state politics I mean a lack of support for the university from the state.
Honestly of all of the defectors of the Big 12, CO is the only school I have no ill feelings towards. They were a better cultural fit with the PAC, left after Mizzou flirting with-Nebby joining the B1G actions, wasn’t two-faced about leaving, and didn’t act like a d!ck by the school/fans/media when/after leaving. F the other five, though.
Maybe, guess we will see. I hope they don't rush into it at all and take their time to see what happens to the ACC and ND first.
Yet another ****** day for college sports fueled by nothing but pure ******* greed.
PAC have to announce their intentions today due to GORs.
I’d assume if the B1G were to trim the fat, Rutgers, Maryland, Northwestern, and Purdue would be the four most in danger.
Maybe they aren't exactly sure who they want next, but they got the two they wanted and let things shake out a bit further before striking again. Those schools aren't going anywhere.
Then go to a Spartan board and talk about your two new conference foes.
1000 posts of mostly dunking on the Big12 and ISU in realignment.
I'm pretty sure for *wink* legal reasons, the schools have to reach out and that may have happened for all we know. There's still a solid 6 1/2 hours before the deadline. Could be a crazy evening.
Pretty sure I’ve never dumped on the Big12 or ISU, you brought the anger and dunking I was just bringing up a couple facts in response.
If I’m the Big ten I still take my time with this. Have to feel the ACC and ND out. They are perfectly fine with 16 for now.
