What would be the requirements for UConn to join the Pac-12 for football-only?

You’re a hayseed.

It’s crap hole. Graceland is a crap hole in a crap hole neighborhood.

As an attraction, Graceland makes Plymouth Rock look like Mount Rushmore.

Never go there.
And I thought that I was literal...I guess a sarcasm font is needed.

I am a hayseed...my hair is sea weed, tough as a pine knot, my ears are made of leather and flop in stormy weather...
 
Yeah that’s fair. I just skimmed the article so I didn’t see anything about the length of the GoR and exit fee. I’ve always said the only chance of joining PAC12 is we got a sweet deal to leave. That would be more important than an extra 7-10 million a year.
 
Oregon State and Washington State must be certain they have no other options after being relegated. They may be well off enough financially to lock into the PAC 12, get the best media deal possible, and try to be the best G6 conference top to bottom.

If the ACC splinters, perhaps a PAC 12 - ACC remnants merger. So long game, it might make sense for UConn, Memphis, USF to seriously consider doing something with the PAC 12. just spit-balling of course.
 
6 flights a season, less if we "travel partner" some games. It's doable.
Travel partners aren't a thing in football. Regardless you're not staying all week. And yes it would be a max of 4.
 
Well there is Beale St if you're drunk enough.



Very true. Louisville views Memphis pretty much they way we view Louisville.

The best thing Memphis has going for it is that the Mississippi river keeps it out of Arkansas.
Well, except that there are some small bits of Tennessee west of the river in the immediate vicinity of Memphis. Rivers meander, sometimes across state lines. Geology 101.
 
And yet fifteen schools have been promoted into the P4 - we were in a conference with 13 of them at one time or another. Nearly half the B12 got jumped up from the Big East or non-BCS conferences into the P4s.

Where we get killed, in particular, is that there is a media frenzy and a resulting fan frenzy every time we get mentioned for inclusion. It’s fatal.
This is an excellent point. We're viewed as power conference losers and the media hype around any potential invitation for us reenforces that narrative. Once we get an invitation to ANY power conference, that stigma vanishes.
 
The only reason to go to Memphis is to stop and get gas while you're driving to Mississippi and no one wants to go there either.
I haven't been since the early-90's. But it was stunning how many strip bars we passed on the cab ride from the airport. And more than double that in billboards for others.

That’s pretty much where they all are.

If you like antiseptic imitation and endless Bachelorette Parties then Nashville is your place. You can have fun in Memphis though.

so that must explain the term "Memphis Dry Rub"

That’s at a bbq place downtown called Remdezvous. It probably still is this way but the waiters hit pissed at customers that ordered something besides ribs.
