According to the newly released numbers we are on par with Washington.

Yeah this is why you lock up the other 4 now, so they have no other options unless the SEC decides it wants to go up there.
If we already have the same value, let them go. I think we are 12 fairly content teams and the other four have to know their place is not above anyone else. If Washington comes, I imagine they will think they are better than the rest. Almost another mini Texas, so let them hang in the PAC. Need Oregon also to take Washington is my opinion now.
That's a tough take, Oregon State over Miami or Pitt.
Originally, I thought it was to balance out the pods geographically, but the author could have moved BYU to the west coast pod.
Still makes me wonder if media companies think covering territory (NW) is more important than a schools actual credentials.
Schools have to make contact. Conferences can’t offer without teams “applying “.
If you think about it, the BiG taking both Oregons and Both Washingtons makes sense. Gives the Toes, Rutgers and Nebraskas somebody to play.
Can a league with 3 "Cougars" be taken seriously?
The best thing the Big 12 can do is to secure those 4 additions ASAP. Then wait for Oregon and Washington to realize the B1G is not on the other end of the phone.
Tomorrow could be the best day for Iowa State in realignment since the day Texas chose the LHN instead of the Pac-16. Which was not really a good day, just a much less sh***y one than the alternative.
They don't obviously. The question I have is the only way peacock can save their deal is going through ESPN. Or in NBCs mind is ESPN the obstacle.
It's Arizona, ASU, UU, and CU. That's it. Then it's waiting on the ACC fiasco to happen so the conference can tie in the eastern teams better.
It could be true. You think OSU and WSU and just going to say, the mountain west isn’t that bad? I figure they will at least try.
Let Washington and Oregon get shunned by the big ten and they can take the remaining 6 and merge with the MWC.
Big XII take ASU/Utah and AU/ CU if they think value is there. We get the first two and the PAC is in a world of hurt. It would also not be us that killed them if the big ten then took another team or two.
Interesting to me there is no Washington to be found.
If the Big 12 can add UA, ASU, CU, and UU, plus Washington, that's an obvious yes IMO. Interestingly, it would leave one spot open for a school #18. Stanford (if the B1G takes only ND and Oregon), Cal, Oregon State, Wazzu and the runners up of last year's expansion round, Boise State and Memphis, could be in that mix. I think Washington State would be at a quick disadvantage based on UW already being in the league.
Why do we keep posting these Twitter personalities that have been wrong about realignment for over a decade?
