Another good pod with an ASU guest. He’s incredibly blunt. https://spotify.link/NO1oq7UDayb
Listened to this one earlier today. When the ASU guest was asked about fan reaction to joining the Big 12, I was expecting him to say they prefer to stay in the PAC but that wasn't the case at all. Matter of fact, he indicated they were pro-Big 12.
Definitely was an interesting interview.

Geez I took a lot of ‘Dumbs’ and was called an idiot for saying this about 4-6 weeks ago. And this is a b1g pod. Interesting. https://spotify.link/8EXBCcZAayb
So the guy you’re quoting is a Syracuse alum, who lives in Miami, pod has less then 500 followers, and he has less then 5K followers total, also less then 100 views per video on YouTube. But sure let’s go with it.

Joe Rogan has 100’s of millions of listeners and he’s a total moron that probably has a driver and an au pair for his kids. Completely detached from reality.

Just saying.

So we are supposed to believe you over him? Where did you go to school, where do you live, how many followers do you have and whats your Youtube account name? If thats how we are gonna judge these things, then come clean with your qualifications. :D

I love the big 12 tourney, its the best out there. but this is mostly marketing BS.
I think the Big XII Tournament is Super Awesome when it is in K.C.

However, overall, I'd give the nod to the A.C.C. Tournament, which is the oldest Tournament, was the only Tournament (which determined the only NCAA participant) for many years and to this day the winner of the Tournament is The "Official" ACC Champion.

Big Xii is just slightly behind that one but light years ahead of all others IMO.

LOL - Per the "Monty Show" Iowa State is the current Big 12 member who doens't bring anything to the table and should be dropped, oh and Colorado should be put into the conference.

Also, Oregon State and Washington state should make the cut over Iowa State and West Virginia.

This show is such garbage, they change their opinions more times than they change their shorts.

My point was that if you’re banking on this guy providing insight it no different then all the people who believed Dave Wandsted last year who was swearing Kansas was going to the big ten. The source matters for who they are not just because they say something you want to hear.

I went to MSU and Michigan so at least have big ten ties and have some connections at the schools. Still didn’t stop me from being stunned like everyone else when the LA schools were added.

Lava I could be the intern big ten commish and I don’t think it would convince you that you were ever wrong on anything based on your back and forth with speedy lol.

They are throwing a hissy fit since ISU fans have been some of the strongest in saying F Utah. He is trying to get ratings. Stop watching him, he is a junk commentator

Unless its an announcement by a school directly, its all entertainment.

I'm probably wrong on a lot of things I'm taking guesses on. I do want to be accurate so please feel free to provide any links or evidence that points out I'm incorrect. This is what I asked Speedy to do. His response of "Please provide me a link so I can turn around and give it back to you" was definitely a bold strategy on his part. :D

To your point I agree it’s all message board chatter. Some outcomes might be more logical than others but that largely depends on your view of things.

I've seen a couple threads on reddit about Pac-12 Big-12 realignment and the consensus among the pac-12 people is that Big 12 folks actively rooting for the demise of the pac-12 (eh not actively, but passively maybe lol) and Iowa state fans are among the loudest pushing for the demise of the pac-12.

It's hilarious how the Big-12 went from poverty conference two years ago to big bad bully eating up other conferences...

I love this site but the guy who breaks more stories about recruiting and inside info on ISU is a 247 guy who is a Wisconsin fan. The point you’re trying to make is ridiculous.

And I bet that dude works for 247 specifically for recruiting or at least puts out crystal balls. Might be a Wisconsin fan but his specialty is recruiting and he has a track record. This guy you’re posting doesn’t have a specialty, track record, or followers. Just because he is saying what you want to hear doesn’t mean he has credibility.

Like I said the source matters.

I heard that too. Do not agree with their list. They are entertaining to listen too and are very much down on the PAC 12.
