There is a chance that ND joining could trigger a series of events where the Big10 takes Stanford and leaves Oregon and Washington out though. It’s all nuts right now. Hearing different things from different sources.

if that happens do you seen oregon and washington joining us in the big12
MH ver3@MH ver3 · 11m
I would think they would but there has yet to be any interest from those 2 schools with B12 from what I’ve been told.

The Big 10 should just bring in all the schools in the Pac 10 as a Western division.

That will never happen because these additions are based on valuation metrics. USC and UCLA moved the needle a lot. Washington and Oregon move the needle a little. No one else does for the amount needed for per school revenue growth.

Stanford getting in would bank on ND making Stanford joining a condition for their joining.

Not my usual source, but a Ohio State insider is saying to pay attention to Georgia Tech. Notre Dame and Georiga Tech have a long history of playing each other. Take this seriously folks. I'm not posting this as a rumor, take it serious.

After reading the Ohio State insider and the intel from my normal source, I'm leaning towards the Big Ten going to 24.

I repeat, Notre Dame and Georgia Tech ....take it seriously. Very seriously.

One thing to watch for, and this even surprises me, don't be surprised if you see Clemson's profile rise in the eyes of the Big Ten/FOX. Notre Dame, Georgia Tech, and sounds like they may want Clemson coming too. That way Notre Dame completes a national schedule.

I feel bad for Washington. 20 years from now people will be asking "why" and not many will remember the details. Houston was once in a conference with Oklahoma and Texas. Not everyone can be a winner. It's a harsh reality of life.

How did USC + UCLA to Big Ten get done so quietly without any national media getting a leak? OSU leaders are friends with leaders at USC and UCLA, which are also connected to Notre Dame. FOX. Warren didn't it up and got it across the finish line.

All of the signs were there though through the Sports Business Journal (in a public form) about the Big Ten TV deal. I'm amazed that nobody else, besides me, caught onto the numbers. When you ran the numbers, of course Pac 12 schools were going to the big Ten.

Now we just wait for Notre dame to announce and their most likely partner of Oregon/Stanford. The ACC schools will come, but that is going to take time.
college football fan@Genetics56 · 1h
If I had to put money on the table if the Big Ten will stop at 18, the answer I would provide is YES. I don't see them going to 20 right away. They will, just don't see it happening right now. Notre Dame is the prize and once that is in, you take the partner and go east.

Except for people following a certain Twitter account. We were in the know.

yes, but I'm referring to those that get paid. Wilner had no clue too.
college football fan@Genetics56 · 1h
that is why you don't see Stanford or Oregon saying anything. Their mouths are shut closed. If either of them say anything in the coming days, it's over for them and they will get left behind. It's sad, but reality. There were always going to be some hurt feelings to breakway

The question is also whether you want the SEC to take Oregon and Washington? If they took Missouri, they're not going to be as picky as we are. I still say take them.
college football fan@Genetics56 · 58m
Would they take Washington (SEC)? That is a good question.
