No BC, that's interesting. I thought y'all were going to be rivals in the ACC?

Current Big East as it is:
Butler
Creighton
DePaul
Georgetown
Marquette
Providence
St John's
Seton Hall
Villanova
Xavier

Start with the PAC-12 and add BYU, Texas, Oklahoma and NotreDame

Pac-8: Wash, WashSt, Oregon, OregSt, Stanford, Cal, UCLA, USC
Other-8: Arizona, ArizSt, Utah, BYU, Colorado, Texas, Oklahoma, NotreDame

Yeah mentioned South Carolina twice?

I should have just said 'lil carolina so that you would have known I was talking about the chickens.

Football wise BC will be a much bigger game for Syracuse than UConn. But in other sports, specifically basketball, it's UConn. Come football season there's no big rivalry game for 'Cuse. But in basketball there's Georgetown and UConn which are both national TV rivalry week games. So in a conference that's designed around what would be the best for Syracuse they get in over BC.

Supposedly the Sooners were insistent upon Oklahoma State's inclusion and at that juncture in the realignment game we were not interested in two from the same state, especially a small state. Also, remember at the time West Virginia was pushing for the SEC we thought that Virginia Tech was still a definite possibility. We didn't tell West Virginia no, we told them not yet. They moved to the Big 12.

I think if the SEC were to work with the B10 and P12, the SEC could get OU and OSU while the Pac 12 gets TX, TT, Baylor, and TCU. Since the PAC 12 would have to take three schools that aren’t AAU members, TX and the LHN would have to be compensation. The question is if KU and Iowa St (AAU members) would satisfy the B10?

I doubt the SEC could find more value in any other combination from one state unless it was Texas joining A&M or Duke joining with the Tar Heels. Both of those scenarios however a very remote. OU & OSU might not be.

I think if the SEC were to work with the B10 and P12, the SEC could get OU and OSU while the Pac 12 gets TX, TT, Baylor, and TCU. Since the PAC 12 would have to take three schools that aren’t AAU members, TX and the LHN would have to be compensation. The question is if KU and Iowa St (AAU members) would satisfy the B12?

I can see the B10 being interested in Kansas, but I can't see them being interested in ISU with Iowa already in the conference.

So true.

Understandable, but misguided in this instance, IMHO.

It may be that both the SEC and WVU acted rationally. The SEC felt it could land a bigger fish than the Mountaineers, and WVU couldn't afford to wait indefinitely to find out.

With regards to OU and OSU, I think the same offer now might meet with a different result. OSU is the 25th most profitable athletic department in the nation. There aren't many of those left on the board now. OU of course is top 10.

The B10’s strict academic requirements limit it to Iowa St, KU, and TX (that will insist on TT tagging along). Moreover, Iowa St would be a good rival for Iowa. Therefore, the only viable candidates for the B10 are KU and Iowa St in my opinion.

The SEC may be happy with that arrangement, but ESPN would not be. There is no way that the world wide leader is going to let Texas march off to a Fox conference without putting up a fight. I'm sure that ESPN would rather continue with the current situation rather than to hand 26 million TV sets to the PAC 12 and Fox Sports.

Unless, of course, ESPN is waiting to be compensated for offering Texas to the PAC. What could possible be compensation for the loss of Texas and the entire State? The only answer possible....Notre Dame. Notre Dame as a full member of the ACC would give ESPN access to the Irish all the time and would be the only move that could equal out the loss of Texas from ESPN's stable of schools.

If I'm Scott, I don't want to go to 16 without Texas. I have to know that I have a home run in order to take the risk of going to 16. The B1G and the SEC don't share the same risk because their new schools (OU & OSU for the SEC, and Kansas and Iowa Statefor the B1G) are contigious and don't require the travel necessary to get from the west coast to Texas and back.
So I guess realignment is once again waiting for the Irish to learn to share.

Lol. +1

I dislike all conferences, even the very idea of conferences.

I liked in much better in the Seventies when conferences were small, regional, fairly insignificant entities, many of the major powers were football independents, and Notre Dame was an independent in football and basketball.

Back then, many schools were free to make their own schedules, could play whomever they liked, and could go to whatever bowl ( and face any opponent) that they could.

What do you think caused all that to go away?
