Interesting options...
- Thread starter M-I-Coug
- Start date
No no and no on most of these teams. Our only path forward is to merge with the Mtn West. Whether it's called that or the PACWest, whatever. That is the only path.
I would love to see a PacWest / AAC merger of some sort. Having Army, Navy, and Air Force in the same conference would be fun. There would be eyes on sets if one of them was playing in the conference championship game with a College Football Playoff berth at stake.
Replace Army, Navy, JMU, Liberty, with USF, Rice, Appalachian State, Gonzaga, UNLV, NDSU
Breakups can be tough, but you're going to have to find a way to get over your ex.
Terrible compared to P5 teams, but compared to Army, Navy, JMU, Liberty, and all the other MIDMAJOR'S, they are the best as far as things like BIG CITY METROS, HOT RECRUITING BEDS, ACADEMICS, AN OR COMPETITIVENESS in either football OR bball, and have beaten Bluebloods like MICHIGAN(APPALACHIAN ST).
A couple, few, some, almost all might not like the religious affiliations, Geography, the them being MIDMAJOR'S, etc, BUT THEY ARE SOME OF THE BETTER, ALMOST BEST OF THE MIDMAJOR'S, AND THE ONLY, BEST THAT PAC 12 CAN GET RIGHT NOW.
And they are a Hell lot better then Army, Navy, JMU, Liberty.
NOT AS BORING AND BAD AS ARMY, NAVY, JMU, LIBERTY
MEDIA WILL PAY MORE TO THE PAC 4/X FOR SDSU, SMU, MEMPHIS, USF, RICE, APPALACHIAN ST, BSU, UNLV, FRESNO STATE, CSU, UTAH ST, GONZAGA, NDSU, UTSA, THEN THEY WOULD FOR THE WORSE ARMY, NAVY, JMU, LIBERTY
IF the PAC 16/18, 20 is
Stanford, Cal, WSU, Ore St, SDSU, SMU, Memphis, USF, Tulane, Rice, Appalachian St, Gonzaga, BSU, UNLV, Fresno St, CSU, Utah St, NDSU, UTSA, etc
Then the Media deal will be about 19 to 29 mil per team.
If its the straight MWC, or straight AAC, or Army, Navy, JMU, Liberty, it would be about 8 mil per team.
You grab, get the BEST DAMN MIDMAJOR'S ON THE PLANET, (Which there are SOME among, in the MWC, AAC, etc), NOT THE PEONS FROM THE MWC, AAC, etc, like Wyoming, Idaho, EWU, Cal Poly, Army, Navy, JMU, Liberty, etc.
