So as of right now, neither conference has enough teams. I'm going to assume that the MWC invites UTEP and NM State. If the new PAC can't get anyone else from the MWC, where do they go from here?

Makes sense too. I think South Florida also declined. Better to stick with the devil you know rather than the one you don't. Plus, all three of these schools would rather be in the ACC if they are going to move.

And it will probably be shot down by the courts yet again. The genie is out of the bottle on this.

I've said before that you'll have top players from either non-bowl teams, or teams going to a minor bowl, that will transfer to playoff teams right before the playoffs or late in the regular season.

Hawaii is a football only member of the MWC. They're in the Big West for other sports. I think Johns Hopkins is an affiliate member of the B1G in Lacrosse, and I think NDSU was an affiliate of the Big 12 in wrestling. It's more common than some might think.

I stand by the opinion that the MWC will immediately backfill with NMSU and UTEP.

Imagine being so incompetent at posting on a message board that you're somehow quoting yourself with blank responses. The nurse should probably take away your internet privileges.

What the hell are you talking about? Nothing about this is about me. It's about the reality of the dirty business that college sports is and has been for many decades. College football and basketball have been funded by under the table dirty money for years. Accept the truth or don't. I could...

84-13. Michigan

They might have to stop that. That kind of behavior may fly in the Mountain West, but not if they're joining the Pac-12.

The truth hurts.

My point is that Gopher fans tend to overstate the importance of college hockey in terms of the overall sports landscape. Only two teams (not the Gophers) draw over 10k fans a game, and only 9 draw over 6000 a game. And I like college hockey.

It's not current. It's been sleazy for decades. You and your ilk just like to pretend this is some new development. The most successful programs have always been paying players, doctoring grades/classes, giving special treatment, cars, etc. Basketball has basically been run by shoe companies...

Exactly. People who try to act like they're on some high horse of virtue when it comes to major college sports amuse me. If you're a fan of the game and think it's "about the kids" or "school spirit" or anything like that, you are absolutely fooling yourself. He can call me "alpha male" or...

Something ordered from NBC?

That makes about as much sense as anything else he's posted yesterday or today.

So based on this rambling story, the game and the championship didn't exist because something about being on a ship? Got it.

Sorry that you can't accept what major college football and basketball really is. People hate being told the truth. Like how legendary coach John Wooden who is practically deified, had a bag man. It's been a shitty, dirty business for decades. At least I accept this.

NIL is a lot more important in basketball, where you can buy a team relatively easily with a few big payments, than football with the large rosters.
