What would u think of about this!
First yes we are going to the Be. But if we were to think outside the box, i would wish we would talk to our commish and put pressure on him to do something unthinkable. Go to 14 teams and now. And go full force after Boise State and Nevada. By adding them u then go to a west and east division still. West being Boise State, Neveda, Tulsa, Utep, Smu, Rice and Houston. East would be Memphis, Tulane, Southern Miss, Uab, Ecu, Ucf, and Marshall. With Boise State, Neveda, Houston, Smu, Tulsa, Rice, Ecu, Ucf in football, then Memphis, And another power in basketball in neveda to carry the conference in bb even more so. More leverage in tv money. And widen your viewing market further. What would u say about this. Plus 14 not too small and not too big. Perfect number of teams. And would put u closer to a bcs conference and taking major steps forward to acheive that..... thoughts?

RE: What would u think of about this!
Do we have time to do this before we enter the Big East?
I mean the announcement is coming no later than Spring.
Could we squeeze in a football season between now and then??
Guess anything's possible.

RE: What would u think of about this!
Oh we are going to the big east. But i think the big east could split in time. And not sure of how goo the big east could be down the road. Miami and them left for a reason. Now IF we could have thought outside the box i said what if, just a thought of what coulda been. But if the C-usa commish were smart going to 14 now and going all out for Boise State and Neveda would be smart. !4 all sport teams, more veiwing and bigger markets, More leverage for a better tv deal. Neveda would really help strengthen the basketball side as well. Big enough without being too big and eventually splitting. Just saying why can't people think outside the box more?

RE: What would u think of about this!
Lets just focus on the BE and get in. Boise will hold out for MW as well Nevada for thier expansion....we need be announcement and NOW..MW will be the only conference with a SHOT at BCS inclusion...CUSA never happen but a good idea.

RE: What would u think of about this!
Not really aces. Lets say ONCE we are in the BE. Now Rutgers is going to the BIg Ten, NOw before the pac-10 allows mwc they jump on Utah and Byu or colorado. Then Big 12 take either byu if they lost Colorado. Now mwc without the two powerbrokers of their conference and Boise and Neveda would much rather come to C-usa then c-usa goes pushing for bcs inclusion. And they would have then the upper leg. Now wouldn't they aces?

RE: What would u think of about this!
Once Rutgers bolts to the Big Ten dominoes will be coming in the bunches. How will the BE handle loosing Rutgers and maintaing their Aq status. These are some good questions being asked? Do u join after Rutgers goes, u then need another team to also replace them. Once Rutgers goes, then Pac-10 will jump on Utah and Either Byu or Colorado. Big 12 would jump on either Byu or tcu. Then C-usa could make a move to go to 14 and go all out for Boise State and Neveda and push for bcs inclusion as well. And try for Be spot. Alot of questions being asked and alot to think about..........

You're always thinking. You try to give a positive message.
But, most of all, you're just damn entertaining. And I, for one, like it.

RE: What would u think of about this!
I hear ya but CUSA will never get a BCS inclusion, ever....just to weak of a conference with even a couple good schools. If Rutgers bolts to the BIg Ten BC and or VTU come back....

I dunno you take Bama, Florida and LSU out of the SEC your left with nothing. Miss St., Ole Miss, Vandy, FUT, Kentucky. There is nothing dominating about these schools.

RE: What would u think of about this!
I'm not sure why everyone is concerned about the Big East's BCS status if Rutgers left. What conference championship have they won? They had one season where they finished in the top 20 in the polls in the last 10 years. Pitt, Cincy, and WVU will continue to hold the Big East banner if Rutgers is here or not.

So Auburn, Tennessee, and Georgia couldn't dominate the SEC w/out Bama Florida, and LSU.
