Did they say this crap right before they grabbed Oregon and Washington too? These statements mean nothing. They will expand when they see an opportunity to do so.
I agree 100%. A respectable program is really all UConn needs and it just has been futility.I think that is what is annoying many here including myself is that the bar for football as far as what the fans demand and what would facilitate a Big 12 invite is so low and yet the football program keeps tripping over it.
lol. This will get blamed on us. They’ll say we triggered the lawyers.So in a 24 hour period you have the B12 publicly announce they are not looking to expand (after very public proclamations that they were), the B1G publicly say they are not looking to expand, and the networks say they have no interest in driving expansion. Quite coincidental, no?!
Sure feels like there is something going on behind the scenes and the lawyers have stepped in across the board here.
I hardly ever like seeing gov't and lawyers getting involved in sports but every college sports fan should be hoping they get involved in this. All of it's ripe for a mega antitrust case.So in a 24 hour period you have the B12 publicly announce they are not looking to expand (after very public proclamations that they were), the B1G publicly say they are not looking to expand, and the networks say they have no interest in driving expansion.

Soon an ESPN executive will write a book If I Did Destroy the Big East and explain how he would have done it... you know if ESPN was involvedAnd OJ insists that he didn't do it.
Maybe, but West Virginia is 32-30, 20-24 in the Big 12 since 2019. Playing Alabama is almost certainly a loss and playing Pitt is a winnable game. And, have you looked at the attendance at WVU games? Last year, WVU went 10-3 which is a good season, yet the Pitt game was the only game above 60k in attendance with the other games between 43.5k to 51.5k.West Virginia May Look to Axe Alabama Series to Extend Backyard Brawl
Move to leverage Pitt to Big12 when ACC gets picked apart?

They must need this for the next step… whatever strategy they have has to include a dismissal.In all candor I don't see how a court can rule in favor of FSU in a summary judgment.
FSU is basically saying "there really is no case, but as we are a state entity in the state where you are the legal branch, be a pal and rule in our favor".
where the hell does FSU think they are actually going to go lol
