You & the Beavers would already be @ the B12. Cal & the Tree should be @ the B10. We went thru this same awful nightmare in June of '10 when we (almost) lost the B12 conference. So we understand what you & Benny Beaver are experiencing right now.

But right now you all need to be proactive. (All of) you should be calling on Prez Schulz & AD Chun to ask the B12 commish & all the B12 CEO's for you & the Beavers to join the B12 (@ a reduced rate if necessary) & don't stop e mailing AD & Prez until you get a response from them. Organize a protest rally if you have to. The Beavers need to do the same & must be encouraged to do the same (better chance).

I wish I could do more for you but you cannot sit on your hands. You need to be PROACTIVE👍

Our impression is something is in the works. At least in consideration. The rumor is we are waiting for Stanford and Cal to get the invite to the ACC. Than that leaves us holding the entire conference and assets, which could timing related merge into the Big-12.

Agreed on all fronts. Have felt all along Big-12 is a great fit and with the former Pac-12 schools a western division would cut down on travel, etc.

Feels like the super conference is going to happen. 24-28 coast to coast conference with divisions. Division champs play in a semifinal, with a final game basically for CFP playoff seeding. 2 teams get in per super conference.

Our AD was just on the radio and reminded us that WSU is in the top 1/3rd for football TV ratings and viewership.

Explain our exclusion from any and all conference considerations, then.

Exhibit 1: Shulz

Yep. F-it. Let's just beg our way into the Mountain West. It's where we belong. And fire Chun, Schulz and Quackikoff on our way out. It's been a few threads ago, but there were some pretty damming posts about Schulz from Big 12 posters about how he sat on his hands as they were falling apart. As George Carlin would say - F the F-ing F-ers. Link below

lack of vision and lack of advocating for it. I think the Big-12 has a leader that sort sees this is where things are headed and is doing something about it.

Have you heard Shulz or Chun or anyone say, let's create a 24 team coast to coast conference? No.

Does it make sense? Yes.

Play games in your division with a few cross over division games. Create a major media package that allows the networks input on scheduling.

Beg to disagree. Coast to coast is a crap plan. Join the Mtn West, if possible rebrand it as the Pac 16, and get on with it.

Doesn’t pay the bills. It’s all about tv money
