This will be an unpopular take here but needs to be said: if we are really looking at football only somewhere (highly skeptical that it ever happens), the AAC is a better fit than the PAC.

I don't think many here will disagree. The AAC for FB-only is better than being an indy. But that option was never going to happen.

It never made sense for them to go to another G5 Conference.

If Gonzaga sans-football makes more than the Big East schools, there needs to be a serious conversation about WTF our athletic dept is doing.

What should they be doing?

Nothing says "maybe you made a mistake" to Fresno State, SDSU, Boise State and Colorado State quite like seeing this in your Twitter feed.

SDSU has made that mistake twice.

More good news for us, frankly

How so? I don't think any of this really impacts us.

PAC-6 are out of programs to add. UConn football is the most viable property remaining.

This is turning into one of the more brutal public humiliations in sports history. The Pac 12 was making press releases for days about which schools they were going to add, and now they are hoping for Utah State to say "yes".

The smart move is for both sides, the MWC and Pac 2+4, to stand down and work something out.

That would probably be the smarter move, however, I'm still holding out hope for our football-only invite lol

I’m not sure we can join the PAC for football is there’s only 2-3 other members.

There are currently 7 members. They need 8 for FBS football.

Well if the BE wanted a decent bball school that is closer than Gonzaga. Memphis would be interested and have a home for football. We get them in BE they get us in Pac12

That's the deal. We join for FB-only and agree to play a few BB games with them.

 

[WrenchFan69]

Surely there's a lifeboat somewhere for us.

Absolutely. Rotate men's and women's basketball split a home and away with PAC teams every year ('25 men home/women away, '26 you flip, for example). Would love to play Oregon St and Gonzaga in baseball, too.

How would this go over with Hurley?

Will a name change be required...Connecticut State???
