If he predicted UCLA and USC only to the B1G and it ends up that way, I will be impressed. Otherwise a lot of people have been talking of various versions of a P2 for a long time now. Including several on this board.
MVver and The Dude (Chris) - all you need to know about both of them is:
- They post every conceivable scenario and delete the ones that donât come true.
- When one of the âpredictionsâ comes true, they point to it and say, âsee, I was rightâ
- Many of their âpredictionsâ from âsourcesâ contradict each other until the wrong one is deleted.
Agree. All about how scheduling is done.
It would make one heck of a voting block.
I like their wine.
How does some guy on Twitter have connections to university presidents and ADs and conference commissioners throughout the country to be able to know everything about what schools are doing with realignment? Answer: He doesnât.
HmmmmâŠ
If we take the corner schoolsâŠ
And Washington and Oregon canât be persuaded to come with themâŠ
Then what happens to the others?
I canât imagine that those two would apply and NOT Stanford and Cal.
If Stanford and Cal also appliedâŠwould we take all four, take zero, or tell two to take a hike? If itâs the latter, then which two?
I donât know about taking them especially if they donât increase the size of the pie
Washington and Oregon are no brainers. In my laymanâs opinion Stanford seems like a plus, Cal not so much. Maybe SDSt instead.
imho we should take Washington, Oregon, and 4 corners. Save the last 2 slots for Louisville and Georgia Tech.
If only the second tier ACC teams were in play. They are not. This will all shake out long before their GOR expire. Stanford and SDSt give us a California foothold. We would own the West. Are we really going to wait 12 years or whatever?
He doesnât. Ten years reading his posts. He throws out every possible scenario
Only way Oregon State and Washington State get in is if EVERYBODY thats P5 says no.
If youâre telling western schools to take a hike⊠Itâs Wazzu and OSU and itâs not close
The OR and WA state legislators may get involved. Wasnât there talk about linking the state schools together for any conference move? If it happens, that could be a spoiler for both UO and UW.
Iâm inclined to agree. Itâs just hard for me to imagine those two schools applyingâŠand other PAC teams like Stanford and Cal NOT doing the same.
If so, then I agree. Take the academic powerhousesâŠand tell the two state non-flagships to take a hike.
Cal & Stanford think the B12 schools are beneath them I could see Cal dropping FB to lower level especially in the age of NIL and especially if student athletes become employees. Same for Stanford possibly. They meaning Cal & Stanford who initially opposed Adding the AZ schools which upset USC.
I agree. They may not want to go âfull NIL.â Would this not drop Stanford down to more or less a Rice level of play?
That might leave Northwestern as the only remaining academic superpower thatâs still trying to compete at the highest level in football (Vandy seems content to be a SEC doormat).
It all depends on just how much political clout Wazzou and the Beavers have in the state legislature. We saw how much Ok St had in regard to OU leaving them. We heard for years by some that Oklahoma and Ok St were bound by state politics, how did that work out?
