    You will find that CUF is quite different from most internet forums in that respect.

            We're go-getters who don't know the meaning of the word "quit." Either that or we're totally clueless and delusional.

                My BE buddy has hopes of this happening. He see the possibility of the BE poaching some of it's former schools back to the BE. Boston College, Syracuse, Pitt. Possibly Va Tech as well.

                If this in fact did happen and we passed on BE.... :igiveup2:


                But that is a lot of variables for it to actually happen..

                  This is sort of what I was thinking in the other thread. The BE plus a few ACC members could make a pretty nice conference. And I still think they'd snap up BYU in a heartbeat--they have BSU and SDSU, for crying out loud. Would round out a nice West division.
                  At least the Big Ten went after a big-time addition in Nebraska; the Pac-10 wanted a game so badly, it added Utah

                    The only problem is that the acc is morelikely to steal from the bigeast than the other way around.

                      I didn't read the article but what could hold the BE together is a really strong basketball conference with some members that are already fine with basketball only.

                          Brady Quinn settles speculation on Irish expansion: "No chance." "Now I'm done."

                              I will take this chance to point out much like Brother Brigham during the Troubles of Nauvoo, neither KC nor myself knees have buckled. The ACC ain't getting blown up and eventually the Big-12 will expand. When they do they will pick BYU for much the same reason my wife picked me. No, it is not because of flat bellies, barrel chested and steely-eyed combat killin' machine good lucks...it will be similar to the U going to the Pac, the Big-12 will need and we will be available so all you pussies can just pull your strings for many more months before you have to say: "Goat was right...Goat was ALWAYS right!"

                              I'm choosing to mostly ignore your fatuity here and instead overwhelm you with so much data that you'll maybe, just maybe, realize that you have reams to read on this subject before you can contribute meaningfully to any conversation on this topic.
