Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

[KidSilverhair]

That's been a popular tweet for a couple weeks, but it's pretty meaningless due to roster turnover in college sports.

It’s kinda like counting USC, Washington and Oregon success this year as crediting the B1G, which I’ve seen some people do.

Army joins American: Service academy will enter conference as football-only member beginning in 2024 season

Army has operated as an independent program since the 2004 season

Army officially in the AAC in 2024 as football only members. The Army-Navy game will retain its usual date (week after conference championships), and not be considered a conference game so it has no effect on conference standings.

Swaim is the worst "source" out there and makes stuff up non-stop.

It is pretty silly but there were plenty of "look how many future Big 12 teams are ranked" posts last year.

Not many of the Twitter folks are reliable, but it is fun to watch.

I do enjoy the tongue in cheek “_____ Legend” jokes with some former greats in the new conferences. B1G legend Reggie Bush, SEC legend Colt McCoy, ACC legend Andrew Luck, that type of thing

His sources are probably these forums. Old news here as far as speculation.

Yormark didn't forget...
Fully confident it was a independent decision by ASU and BY didn't make a call.

That guy has been a disaster for that university, amazing he held on this long.

Is this the guy who guaranteed that he would never make the trip to West Virginia? Turns out that may have been accurate.

Thank you!!

I couldn't find anything written about how the rules changed for not allowing departing members to vote between the point at which CU left and the other 7 left. What happened to adherence to the bylaws? And BTW, with the departing schools departing for greener pastures, I thought they might be more collegial towards OSU and WSU on their way out the door.

What was left was decisions by the court(s) and thankfully OSU and WSU are off to a good start in getting financial benefits that will help them going forward.

Now it's on WSU and OSU to not overstep things.

Always the final destination.

Sorry if this has been posted in another thread but what we all were expecting. The whispers are getting said out loud now.

The Big Ten and SEC are going to be able to afford that. I'm not sure about the Big 12 and ACC much less any other league.

In an interview that aired Sunday on "Meet The Press," Baker, in his ninth month as NCAA president, alluded to the creation of a new model for “50-70” programs that are “dramatically different than the rest.”

50-70 is eye opening
