Message: [QUOTE="CAtlantic, post: 4341937, member: 11388"] Guess who's baaaaaaaack? MH ver3@MH ver3 · 18h Fwiw those aren’t the only 2 schools going B1G from out west. Just the first 2 dominoes to fall MH ver3@MH ver3 · 18h Oregon and Washington most likely next 2 to go B1G. Will B1G stop at 18 though? MH ver3@MH ver3 · 18h “But UCLA can’t go without Cal” Wrong. John Riley@jriley322 · 18h So, does the ACC still look like a possibility for WVU or, will the SEC start poaching the ACC? MH ver3@MH ver3 ·18h ACC has been begging ND to join the past 48 hours. WVU has been told that us KU and OKST are on standby. ACC fearing the loss of FSU and Clemson MH ver3@MH ver3 · 18h B12 in a prime position to reap the rewards of the weakened PAC. Arizona schools have been talking to us for years now in fear this would happen. Andy Olsen@Andysbbqpit · 18h PAC met today and they all claim to be United. Guessing B10 said not to Washington and Oregon. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 18h Let me remind you they said the same thing after SEC poached B12 TomKat@Tomkatf14 · 11h Replying to @MH ver3 and @Andysbbqpit I’ll bite. I agree OUW are B1G sooner than later. The Arizona’s are obvious to the B12. Assume CU/UU as well. Cal is likely a “take” as well. Coogs and Beaves screwed? MH ver3@MH ver3 · 2h Noise last night and this morning points to B1G going to 20. B12/Pac12 remnants merger back on the table. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 2h B1G has told Oregon and Washington they are in and want 2 more. Want to add all 4 in one final swoop. Waiting on ND to decide. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 2h If ND says yes then Stanford is in as well. If ND says no then it’s currently unclear what will happen. Louis Oliverio@LouisOliverio · 2h If ND says no I think it stays at 16. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 2h Oregon brings Nike money and incentives. Washington adds another large tv market and school with tradition. Louis Oliverio@LouisOliverio · 2h Replying to @MH ver3 1. ND is not likely to happen unless there's something going on that I'm not seeing. 2. WVU in mix? 3. Does WVU even want it if SEC may take CLEM/FSU? MH ver3@MH ver3 · 2h Depends on the money at that point. Fans would love it just because of the old rivalries. But if they lose fsu and Clemson the floodgates could open for further poaching and SEC may take more. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 2h B1G is making an impassioned push for ND as well-ACC commitment be damned. Louis Oliverio@LouisOliverio · 2h I heard ballpark was 120M to 140M for ND to buy out of obligation to ACC. Steep if true MH ver3@MH ver3 · 2h I have heard similar numbers as well MH ver3@MH ver3 · 2h ACC desperately trying to put together a power move of their own with ND and some combination of B12/P12 remnants MH ver3@MH ver3 · 2h I think when all the dust settles there will be 3 super conferences with 20+ members. UCF, Houston, BYU, and Cincy got very lucky with their B12 invites because they most likely got the last lifelines ever into power conferences. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 2h I can tell you that Lyons and Gee are certain WVU’s future is fine regardless of what happens and we will have a spot in one of the remaining power conferences whether there are 4 of them or 3. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 2h WVU has been talking with ACC, SEC, B1G, and their current conference. We will be fine. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 2h There very well could be a scenario where the ACC is poached by SEC and B1G and the remnants of the ACC and PAC merge with the B12 to create a “coast to coast” super conference. Jason Berman@jasonb56 · 1h What are your thoughts on a report this morning that WVU, Ok State and the Two Texas schools are targets for the ACC as quick acquisition? MH ver3@MH ver3 · 1h It’s true. I said as much yesterday only I’ve heard KU is one of the targets. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 2h My source just informed me that Arizona, Colorado, Utah, and Arizona State have applied for membership with the B12. Things are getting crazy! Jay_G_Dun@doneagain73 · 1h I doubt ANY P12 teams do anything in the near future as they’re ALL holding out hope they will get invited to the B10. Until the Notre Dame issue is settled for the Big 10, nothing else is going to happen, and ND is probably riding things out for the next 10 yrs due to ACC GOR MH ver3@MH ver3 · 1h The four schools that applied for B12 were already told outright “no thanks” by B1G [/QUOTE]
