Message: [QUOTE="UConnJim, post: 5078096, member: 1559"] I'm not sure about that as I think taking 4 MWC schools is just a negotiating ploy and the start of rebuilding the Pac 12. First, by taking only 4 schools, the MWC is still intact with 8 football schools, so the Pac 2 won't be sued for dissolving the conference. Next, the MWC can be dissolved by a 3/4 vote, so if the Pac 2 take 4 more MWC schools, 8 schools can dissolve the conference and avoid all of the exit fees. I think the Pac 2 wants the MWC to dissolve the conference on their own to limit their potential liability. Who do I think gets asked from the MWC to join the Pac 12? Air Force might be asked, but I think they will opt for the AAC. Then I think the four schools will be: Utah St., UNLV, Wyoming, and New Mexico. San Jose St., Nevada, and Hawaii will be left out. That brings the Pac 12 to 10 schools which is where I think they stand for a couple of years. [/QUOTE]
