Also, check out Robert Bowlsby's signature on that contract. Don't think I've seen one like that before. -

Right, I would say this is good news (although probably not terribly big news) for both BYU and Utah. Both teams presumably want the B12 to stick together.Originally posted by falafel View PostComment

per espn the #1 free agent school for expansion is byu. Maybe Viking and his locked in solid references were right about the pac12.
1. Brigham Young Cougars
Current affiliation: Independent
10-year record: 82-43, eight bowls, two conference titles (Mountain West)
TV market: Salt Lake City (33rd)
The Cougars wisely broke off their chats with the Big East not too long before the conference started its 2012 implosion. Its two-year run as a Notre Dame-ish independent has been a success, but without the TV and BCS safety nets that the Irish enjoy, BYU officials know that they must continue shopping for a conference football home.
The Big 12 has quietly poked around Provo. People within BYU tell me that the Pac-12 has also made stealthy inquiries, though the folks at archrival Utah don't want to hear of it. There is also talk of a new "remnants conference" that would essentially reunite the Mountain West and add in Big East refugees. But is a cobbled-together league really a better option than independence, or waiting on one of these inquiring conferences to make a move?
"We talk a lot about media markets driving all of this," said a West Coast AD. "Salt Lake is a solid market. But really, BYU transcends that. They are one of the few schools with a national following. Really, it's global. BYU TV is already in 50 million households on its own. It's a giant brand with a passionate fan base. Otherwise, they couldn't have gone independent in the first place. There's a lot to like there. We may try to downplay it, but we all know that."Last edited by Mormon Red Death; 12-19-2012, 07:14 AM."Be a philosopher. A man can compromise to gain a point.

So the utes are adamantly opposed to BYU in the Pac 12. Wow, that's shocking because according to BYU, our athletic depts were super good friends and the utes were bummed that the cougs weren't fully invited.Originally posted by Mormon Red Death View Post
I fully understand why they are opposed to BYU in the Pac 12...it would destroy any semblance of recruiting parity/slight ute advantage.Last edited by venkman; 12-19-2012, 05:45 PM."Remember to double tap"Comment

because they can only beat a few teams in that conference and would likely enjoy another team that they can beat most of the time. you know, so they can go to a bowl game.Originally posted by falafel View Post Why would they possibly do that?Comment

The West Virginia expansion tweeters are back at it. This time mhver3 is saying that the four power conferences are going to break away from the NCAA in football. The Big 10 and SEC are going to expand to 20 teams while the Big12 and PAC12 land somewhere between 12 and 16 teams.

Deals have been made. Secret meetings attended. Illuminati-type cabal formed. The whole nine yards.Comment
