I agreed to stop a long time ago if everyone would like that ... just a past time to see what's going around, but happy to cease and desist if that's the feeling of the masses here.

Just keep it to one or two threads. Starting a new thread every day about rumors is just crazy

Yeah, well I think everyone knows how I feel about laziness and just creating new threads :)

The Big XII wanted Cincy and Louisville to help West Virginia.

Louisville said thanks but no thanks and it screwed up that deal.

Cincy to the ACC? Makes more sense.

That's not how it went down. Louisville was considered for Big XII expansion and desperately wanted in, but the Big XII eventually decided on West Virginia and TCU instead.

Subsequently, the ACC added Louisville to replace Maryland when Maryland left for the Big Ten.

At the time, I'm pretty sure the B12 was trying to maintain BCS status, hence why WVU was chosen.

You might want to get a map and check out where Louisville and West Virginia are located.

Boren is still pissed that they dropped the ball on Louisville.

Bingo. WVU and TCU were the most successful candidates at that time in history. Louisville was in a slump at the time.

They made a decision very similar to the Big East selections of UL, UC and USF back in 2003. Best available football programs at the time.

They are good at that, pretty much killed the plans for the Metro Football conference too. Landscape would be alot different today if that had gone down.

I know that Louisville and Cincinnati are the same distance from WVU as they were in 2003. Give or take an earthquake or mudslide


BOOM

On a Tuesday right?

Are you speaking in riddles? If you are attempting to make a point then you probably need to clarify.
