So Boise St. send their other sports to the Big Sky assuming they change their rule about allowing a school in that doesn't play football. WCC takes Air Force?

I got news for all joining the NEW Big East the new television deal despite what the Big East Pres says, ain't going to be nearly has good as the old one. Who knows what the 2014 BCS deal will look like. Huge risk the annual revenue differnce is about $1.8million, year 1 would be break even for Boise and AFA with the loss of 2012 MWC revenue share. The Big East Buy in will likely take year 2 and 3 incremental revenue. So year 4 in the Big East before it becomes profitable by then the new BCS will be in effect. Good luck with that.
Yep. You're right and ALL of the schools who will be joining shortly have done no due diligence and are wrong.

7th school invited won't be BYU. For them it's the Big 12 or bust. It wouldn't surprise me if the Big East wanted Hawaii. If you're travelling by plane anyway, might as well make it somewhere nice. Plus Hawaii already has a home for all their other sports so there's no worry about that.
Don't know about that! Just had several BYU posters on our board say if 3rd tier rights are cleared for BYU network they are coming
It just seems to go against the whole reason they went indy in the first place, to become the LDS version of Notre Dame. If that's what they want, then they should put all their sports except for football in the Big East and continually push everyone around with their football independent-ness.
Just look at BYU's November schedule and bowl tie-in to see why independence sucks. Notre Dame can still schedule quality teams in November, and can have 4 losses and still get a decent bowl.
To pad on, Notre Dame's bowl is tied in with the Big East if they don't qualify for the BCS.

RE: McMurphy: Boise State BOE gives authority to join BE as FB only member
Not trying to make a big deal out of this BYU to the BE thing, but I have to ask. I am not Catholic and not Mormon, so I am curious as to how they would get along in the BE...
If BYU held out and let WVU take their Big XII spot, I can't imagine they are taking a serious look at the Big East. It's like three time zones away, like Boise State. Which is why the BSU fans aren't that excited. They would need a concorde jet to go to the away games....Just my opinion.
