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

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.
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.
 


Is RedditCFB a Key source these days? It wouldn't shock me if they had some random connects in athletic departments
 
I think he'd be thrilled, as it is a solution that allows him to stay in the Big East, which he loves

That solution does not keep us in the big east if a p4 conference comes calling, nor would Hurley want to
 
UConn publicly mentioned means that the MW and PAC are now going to merge and sign a big enough TV deal that San Jose State will be making more TV $ than UConn
And we get perceived as being left out, again, despite not being (publicly) active in any of the discussions.:D
 
SDSU has made that mistake

PAC-8 Would make a lot of sense for UConn FB. The travel would be tough but it’s only 7 trips every two years. We can focus on local opponents in the OOC. UMass, Buffalo, Cuse, BC, Temple, Rutgers.
PAC-8 with limited travel would make sense for UCONN

The rest of the league in the coming years adding more and more west coast teams and putting UConn on an island may not make sense. All of a sudden we are traveling to the west coast 10 times a year instead of 7. Maybe need an escape clause should they expand by x number of teams west of the Mississippi.

Would that still be better than status quo? Unfortunately, it may be.

Of course a 5 year GOR kinda helps with that.

We'd be traveling 4 times (9 teams, 8 conference games, 4 of which are away) and it is wildly unlikely it would go beyond 5 (10+ teams, 9 conference games, 4/5 of which are away)
 
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.



How the fudge did this silly slap fight between a bunch of mid-majors in the mountains boomerang right into our nuts?
