Tweets Alive

What the hell, even though I don't think he has any new information MHver3 is tweeting that BYU may be getting ready to join the UConn conference (my name for the conference formerly known as the BE).

MHver3 ‏@MHver3
BYU talking to B12 news leaking actually makes my source think they are considering the Artists Formerly Known as the Bigeast

Similar hint from Dennis Dodd.

Dennis Dodd ‏@dennisdoddcbs
Safe to say that BYU defense could play anywhere including BigEast and MWC. (Wink)

And the Daily News weighs in as well.

If the big whatever gets byu it does make it a little more attractive

 

[Hoophound]

I'll believe it when I see it but BYU plus the others mentioned would make this conference much more appealing.

Lot more. If all sports and get SDS all sports. Having 2 Texas and 2 Florida teams. Boise State. Not what I would pick as 1st choice, but hey you got lemons then make ..........

This would not be a bad all sports conference if it all works out:

East:

UCONN
Temple
ECU
UCF
USF
Memphis
Cincy
Navy (FB Only)

West:

Boise
SDSU
Fresno St
Houston
SMU
BYU or (FB only) if BYU does not show
UNLV
Tulane

Teams can play 7 divisional games with 2 cross over games. Navy can get as their permanent cross over. Teams from East will play each team from the West once every 4 years. Basketball can be play home and away within your division (12 games) and 6 opponents from the other side once each year.

I believe MWC is doing everything they can to land Boise, SDSU and BYU. BE is doing the same. BE better be offering all sports division out in the West. Anyway, we will see who ends up on top.

It's more like who ends up on their knees.

Hopefully not UConn. These western schools want to take 3rd tier rights, I bet. UConn makes $25m a year in licensing selling those rights. These schools want to cut into that, I bet.
