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

Help! I’ve been away for 3 hours and every one says it’s over but I see no official confirmations of that. No tweets. Can someone help out here???

Yea nothing has changed. It’s all the same noise.

 

[huskidork]

I swear, soon someone on this board will stub their toe, and read it as a sign middle tennessee will be in the Big 12, there's literally nothing official even out yet, let's relax

If you're not in the P3 eventually you'll be squeezed out of everything. They will make the rules that benefit themselves. Congratulations to everyone who feels cozy in the Big East. We have a great men's BB team and some years to play out our success. But without the support and revenue stream of a P3 Conference our success will have an expiration date.

I mean it’s sorta rhetorical, I know people like their David vs Goliath matchups. But 16 seed Vanderbilt upsetting its way to the S16 will have a very similar impact.

That's an absolutely preposterous take.

 

[djct1999]

Yeah, I'm not buying any of that.

Of course I want UConn to have way more money to operate with but our basketball program isn't going anywhere and realignment isn't even close to finished.

Realignment isn’t close to finished but that isn’t necessarily a good thing for UConn. It’s more likely Former P5 schools will drop down to G5 than vice versa. We couldn’t get into the acc. If we swing and miss on the B12, where do you think this is really heading. I already know, no where good. There is chatter cal may drop football. Wash state and Oregon state are done. Stanford, who knows. This won’t end well for anyone left out.

Group hysteria as far I can tell. Took AD tweets as capitulation.

It’s really not. For every casual fan you’re supposedly losing, you’re gaining 20x more fans and alumni watching their favorite school do the impossible. I also don’t believe casual fans care that much who the David is in their David vs Goliath matchups, they’ll get used to not seeing schools they’ve never heard of before.

20 min until Arizona board of regents.

 

[greenday61892]

The keyest of tweets!

 

[phillionaire]

this is amazing baking of crumbs from tweets, I love it. all that's missing is schools being replaced by clones or military tribunals.

There's no concept of an "underdog" if it's all teams from the Power conferences.

You really think the general sports fans in this country will be as captivated by a 12-20 Clemson winning two games as opposed to FDU, St. Peters, Mason, Florida Gulf Coast?

There is no concept of a David when David is getting a $50M tv check every year.

If 16 seed Boston College ever wins a tournament game against 1 seed Kentucky or 2 seed UConn, people will 100% care. They’re still a David because the expectation will be for them to lose handily.

The only thing keeping my hope alive, is that Utah hasn’t scheduled their meeting. Especially with the rumors of all 3 pac schools going together.

Non key.

Thamel mentioned nothing of ASU. Makes you wonder.

There is a glimpse of hope left. Hopefully, Yormark can get us in over Utah.

So after all of these grand plans from the B12, they end up adding 4 teams…and only two new markets (Colorado and Arizona). And we hear it is football success that drives the bus…but the 4 teams added have a combined football record below .500 in the last 5 seasons…and were below .400 this past season.

So maddening! I thought BY might be forward thinking, but just ended up going with the short sighted picks that win with the 60 year old dinosaurs they hang out with at booster receptions. No forward thinking again!

The amazing thing about all this is Fox/ESPN didn't want to pay for the Pac12, but they love paying for all of Utah and all of Arizona x2. It must have been Oregon, Washington, Cal and Stanford that they thought stunk.

At the end of the day, this doesn't make sense.

It's how you end up with the worst of the Pac12 and the best of the AAC.

I have to think that the end of this contract in 2031 is going to result in a kind of worse than Pac12 situation. Except there will be absolutely no place for these teams to go.
