Conference Realignment on the Front Burner. (Link)
This is a Greg Swaim article so I will let you draw your own conclusions. Since expansion news is slow, I thought I would share. His information does confirm what we have been hearing for the last few months.
CJ
From the article:
"The Big 12 should be naming a new commissioner in the next month or so, and it may not take long for them to make a formal bid to no less than two schools, and possibly as many as four. The smart money is on BYU, Louisville, Clemson and Florida State, and likely in that order, but there could be others, and depending on how aggressive the new commish is, don’t be surprised if Notre Dame gets a call as well, even though they’re smack in the middle of Big Ten territory."

3rd, making generalizations tends to create more problems than it solves. I realize you dislike certain WVU fans. But you're not going to help anything by lumping everyone into one container. That's stupid...

We are expanding Schellenberger facility, also. I bet the stadium is expanded to 68.000 or 70,000 soon as well.

If you go to the Big 12, I'd be shocked if you don't expand PJCS even further.

Much like the WVU fans on the Scout board blame everything bad that happens to them on Louisville. I didn't realize UofL and Tom Jurich had so much power until reading the posts there.

Every team has bad trouble making posters. Idiots come from every state in the union.

The new Big 12 commissioner (would be ironic if it were Jack Swarbrick) can call ND all he wants. There is no way that ND would join the Big 12 in all sports, despite what people on message boards like Bucaineer believe.

Not all do that, CJ, and you know it. It's just a small vocal minority, looking for a scapegoat to blame whatever beef they have at the moment...
Ignore 'em. As long as you know the truth of the matter, does it really matter what other's think?

Do not forget Jackson, he is a good guy, too. And there are other good West Virginia fans.

It's the really vocal ones who are usually the biggest jerks. But isn't that kind of a general rule for any fanbase?

It's usually the most vocal that are also the least informed. They latch on to one idea, no matter how far-fetched, and hold on for life.

The problem that I and every poster on here has is we all have an agenda and want to defend it. But most of us can accept facts that go against our desired outcome. However, some cannot or will not accept facts that are proving their desired outcome is not happening. Then all Hell breaks out, especially when you have multiple hard-headed poster agenda go south at the same time.
