FWIW I just heard that the B1G is going to take UNC, Virginia, VTech, Oklahoma, Kansas and UConn!


Disclosure: I just heard it because I said it aloud before posting this, but really that's more than most of these rumors are based on.

Not in twitter world....No restrictions at all. The clouds are made up of cotton candy and it rains skittles.

From who? I want names DAMIT!!!!

This must be spreading fast. I was at the Wendy's drive thru and the cashier saw my UConn sticker and said we are B1G bound with a few ACC and B12 teams. Announced any day.

Apparently another customer who knows someone who knows someone in the know comes in weekly for a Frosty.

Also, the source loves the Wendy's chili, which adds to his credibility I think.

We need a "Save UConn" effort. I'm always reminded of this when I see these tweets.

"My best friend’s sister’s boyfriend’s brother’s girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who’s going with a girl who saw Ferris pass-out at 31 Flavors last night. I guess it’s pretty serious."

Just heard that AAC is looking into petitioning a rule change that would allow for a Football only conference.

 

[JSM1970]

Everyone but a few on this board do my get this.


@MHver3 I always laugh when people claim Marinatto is to blame for the Big East's downfall. Not him at all. It's easily Mike Tranghese.

This may be the most ridiculous one yet. AAC has 11 all sport schools, how many could they possibly think they're going to lose that they want to make 7 (probably 9) schools search for an Olympic sports home?

 

[brasssbonanzaa]

Of course it's Mhv so it's Mh3 likely not true, but if the Big 12 isn't an option, AAC for football only and Big East for all sports would be the best non-P5 option for us.

I agree it is likely the insane ramblings of a lunatic mind. Much easier to add UMass and Southern Miss, plus Army for football and call it a day.

Ok I got clarity this is not about BTN ( deal is place until 2026) and growing rev huge every year with more eyeballs, B10 TV deal up.

Bluevod ‏@Bluevodreal 3h3 hours ago
So by adding 6 teams it wins both ways adding more rev to BTN deal and stronger rightS for $ ESPN/ABC Fox and more

Bluevod‏@Bluevodreal
Second source confirmed almost word for word of Expansion.

Someone's dog was the 2nd source right?

I started it in Dublin Ohio

This is so awesome! I can't wait to visit all the tailgates that are sure to be graciously hosted by our new conference mates Terry, Billy, and Stimpy.

I believe it was none other than Ed Rooney himself, who does hold a senior position at an educational institution north of Chicago.

????

The issue is not the NCAA allowing it, the issue would be can a sufficient number of schools be found that would want to play football in one conference and park all other sports elsewhere. Is the plan to tell whatever schools remain (assuming some get a P5 golden ticket) to find another home for hoops & olympic sports but football can't leave?

The idea that the AAC would want this makes zero sense.

Umm, Mr. Ver... The NCAA already allows football only leagues. Look up Pioneer Football League.
