It’s amazing how getting rid of OuT brought about stability. Who would have thought?

No, I don’t think it is a requisite. I could see an angle where Big Tech likes the idea of both conferences doing a full merge where no one is forced out. Content is key for a single actor like that.
All I’m really saying is we’re stuck in the old FOX/ESPN mindset. Sure, we’ve evolved (long overdue) from the sole media market size analysis, but we’re underestimating potential with Big Tech.
Thanks for the info. Crazy they are still holding a grudge all these years later. I wonder if ND would make more money as an Independent or as a member of the Big 10.
The Centennial Celebration You Don’t Know About // UHND.com
On November 23, 1887, there were 38 states.www.uhnd.com
The Fielding Yost years, from about 1909 to the 1930’s. He was the reason the conference denied membership to ND three times and he tried to get other teams not to play them. He is the reason they adopted a national schedule and started playing USC and Stanford. He was there in an era when ND students had to fight off an attack on campus by the KKK.
Is there any proof that the big12 is reaching out to the 4 pac12 schools listed? I have been dreaming of a early november game in Tempe for several days now.
Notre Dame as Long said they would make more money if they joined a conference, but they don’t care. They love the idea of being independent and focusing more on the school itself
Considering that those four schools are all having quick Board of Regents meetings and they have supposedly schedule a meeting with the big 12 I would say it’s legit
The Big 12 is about to have MAJOR exposure to Dallas, Houston, PHX, Denver, and Salt Lake City.
The race for #3 would be over if this happens..

Every time bball is mentioned in this thread it’s like nails in a chalkboard.
Bball isn't the reason for expansion but its still fun to talk about the possibilities.
I am also dreaming of going to boulder again for a game. That place use to be a good time, its been years though.
Why?? Basketball matters more than it did I the last round due to streaming.. you get 25+ spots of inventory and guaranteed subscription from August to March.
Obviously football is king. But we are not competitive with the B1G and SEC contract. Why not dominate the conversation from December to April?
Are there Arizona/Utah regents meetings scheduled? I’ve only seen Colorado.
Not sure what's so hard to understand about this. Everyone knows football drives the bus. Seeing sports I care about benefit from it is fun to think about.
Seems like years ago the alumni Association had Amtrak trips to Denver and arranged hotels, transport, tickets and tailgating for the CU game. I never got to go because they left before I had a chance but maybe they'll start this again.
I remember as a kid taking amtrak to denver, it was miserable. Train broke down in the middle of nebraska for 5 hours.
