Key tweets, and it's all gone to Hell.

I’d laugh at this except I did this on my recent vacation.

I'm currently on vacation and have been going to my computer every free minute i have haah

That’s not a good sign

GOKU was adamant that it was UConn, ASU and Arizona with Colorado and said he was going silent until Friday. If he is wrong then he will come back to own up. But honestly, I do not doubt he was in the know for some things...I was hearing the same... just a lot has changed that I dont think even Yormark anticipated. Many more options are opening up... no need to force prior plans now.

It’s over it’s so freaking off. Shut down this forum.

GoKU has been a noshowKU.

He said he wasn't returning until Friday.

This is the beginning of the right sizing CFB and the end of the NCAA.

Five conference shrunk down to four conferences with 20 teams each.

80 schools.

Each of the four remaining conferences has two divisions of ten teams each. Divisions makes it easy to divide up geographically for non-revenue sports. One big conference championship follows and then on to nationals.

Playoff formats needing 4, 8, 12.......any multiple of four, is easy to do.



B1G, SEC, Big 12 and ACC will be left. UConn will have a seat in either Big 12 or ACC.

Just need a few years to get all the pieces moving.

It will end up two conferences.

 

[Vowelguy]

The B1G long patient game seems to be coming together ....rather stunning.

I dont see the BiG's hand being forced by anyone. They'll add when they want to add. Wash/Ore's value hasn't changed in the last 3 weeks.

 

[mike012]

BIG sees a chance to get 4 pac teams on the cheap. 30 million to start for now.

 

[ninety-nine]

That’s not a good sign

GoKU did say they're taking a Boneyard break for a few days, but would be back on Friday/early next week, come rain or shine.

 

[Vowelguy]

I just read the SEC might be interested in TCU

No friggin way.

 

[Chin Diesel]

It will end up two conferences.

I've posted on two conferences as well.

SEC and B1G. 40 teams each. Four divisions of 10.

ESPN will have SEC properties and B1G will be FOX.

It would be more lime NFL with NFC amd AFC.

Alternate which side televises the championship.

 

[Bongo Fury]

I'm not so sure about that. In fact, it wouldn't surprise me to see Yormark take Arizona and Arizona State and Connecticut.

Yormark would take UConn. Public opinion would be Utah but we’ll see who makes the call

Jesus, how much freaking more money do these people need?

I've always thought it would end up something like that. It destroys college football but that seems to be what the decision makers want. They'll both make boatloads of money and the SEC will continue to win every football national title.

 

[upstater]

Mandel doesn't make any sense. The B1G is not going to have 20 teams and only 2 of the 20 are disadvantaged.

Either you blow up the whole distribution model or you make everyone equal.

What is Mandel going on about?

 

[ctchamps]

He said he was going to stay off the board until Friday or next week. And if it didn’t happen he’d come back and take his lumps.

GoKU's exact quote:

This is my last post till this is all done, which should be by Friday or early next week. I stand by what I posted. There will be 16 teams, Colorado Arizona UConn and ASU. If I'm wrong, I will be back here to own it.

Post 14177 in this thread if anyone needs confirmation.

 

[Rufus]

In the past few days, rumors have circulated around the B1G adding: FSU, Clemson, Oregon, Washington, Stanford and Cal.

FSU doesn't need planes to travel to SEC schools.

 

[Figurehead]

We’re out. Cal, Stanford, Oregon, and Washington to B1G. Arizona, Arizona State, and Utah to Big 12.

Sounds like that is where things are as of Wednesday afternoon.

What current conference opponents does FSU bus its football team to? Which SEC schools (outside of Florida and perhaps Auburn & Alabama) would they bus the football team to?

From whom were you hearing these things?

 

[greenday61892]

It should be on Depot Campus.

GOD no, my understanding is that building would need extensive remodeling to even be a lateral move.

Not necessarily. We probably will backfill what is left of the ACC. It is not crazy to think that the old Big East football schools end up
in the same conference somehow.
