this thread has hit rock bottom.

Not yet - but close.

The more we hear about Pitt the better because the only way Pitt comes is with Notre Dame and that means a 12-team league with BYU.

Why not Pitt as a 10th team?

The parking structure is 15 feet from the tent, not the van. Who parks their car within 15 feet of a pop-up tent?

Wait, doesn't that describe your last camping trip?

Has anyone checked on private jet flights between Big 12 HQ and Pittsburgh?

I can't believe that you seriously think BYU would turn down a BCS invite just out of pride, and not because it's what they think is best.

If they think this is true then they believe that wallowing in mediocrity is in the school's best interest and for the life of me I don't understand how this could possibly be believed by those in charge of BYU.

I'm not sure the parking structure is within the 15 foot perimeter either.

As I look at the first photo, it's clear that there is a nominally mature, deciduous tree directly between the pop-up tent and the parking structure. I am guessing it is most likely an Ash Tree - perhaps an Emerald Ash.

The fully grown Emerald Ash averages 60 feet in width. As this particular Emerald Ash is clearly only nominally mature, I will say it is 23' wide. However, it hangs over the pop-up tent only five or six feet, meaning that the rear of the pop-up tent is, at a minimum, 17 feet from the parking structure. And don't get me started on the front of the pop-up tent.

Your post is clearly contributing to the misinformation and rumor that is so thoroughly wrecking productivity along the Wasatch Front today, and frankly, I expect more out of you.

STOP EXAGGERATING THE DISTANCE BETWEEN POP-UP TENTS, KSL VANS, AND PARKING GARAGES!

My estimate was as the crow flies.

Or South Bend.

I was thinking the same thing. This would be a step up for Pitt. More money. Better football conference. Everything revolves around football. The Big 12 also has good hoops and Pitt would only strengthen that.

There are no parking structures at Mutual Dell.

That was 24 hours ago, no? Things are moving fast! (or not)

We only seek positive affirmation

You better mean the Eurasian Jackdaw, or a similar sized crow, because if you are talking about a bird the size of the Common Raven, well, it wouldn't be caught dead anywhere near an Emerald Ash (particularly one that isn't fully mature), let along fly over it.

Survey in the statesman...

With the Aggie announcement of its move to the SEC, what’s Texas’ next move?

Stay in a 9-team Big 12 ( 3% )
Stay in a Big 12 that adds teams ( 58% )
Move to the Pac-12 ( 36% )
Move to the Big Ten ( 3% )

Bohls on ESPN....

"BYU is almost as arrogant as Texas."

He thinks that Texas should go to the PAC.

Has anyone seen Larry's jet on the flight tracker thing?
