I can't think of any school that has been football only in a P5 conference. Notre Dame is the closest, but that has been Olympic Sports only (with the Big East), and their Olympic sports and partial football deal with the ACC.

Sounds true, true?

its media markets, not performance

It's more TV value than strict media markets

BYU is already too far west...no way in heck WVU and others would vote for this

nashty

3/6/15 10:13am

The fact that WVU has any sway at all in anything still blows my mind

The fact that anyone wants to live in West Virginia blows mine.

San Diego is very easy to fly into, relatively inexpensive and most importantly

Personally, I feel the far more likely scenario:

This won't happen

Just saying the MWC or AAC will break away from the rest of the G5

It's not true until Tuxedo Yoda and True True confirm the Rumor.

I would love SDSU as the other addition to the B12 so we can still have a So Cal

Hey, I wouldn't care if it was UVU that joined, as long as we are the other one.

Thank you stating it's a Big 12 "Rumor"

Gotta say I'm impressed BYUTv is handling nearly the entire WCC tourney

byujdmba

BYUtv might be a huge bargaining chip with the B12.

or it could be an equally big barrier...

icecougar

Your right it could be a barrier However, conferences and schools want exposure

Cougarpride

Actually, a decent fit, especially if Football Only

IMHO Football Only invites are the way to go..

Boise St doesn't have their own ESPN deal

ManicBlue

3/6/15 12:25pm

This is right. But the MWC deal is basically a deal with BSU.

Anae4Anae

3/6/15 12:35pm

Does this deal last into perpetuity? Great right now, but Boise St. may get

CougarPilot

Actually, Boise does have their own deal

Do you have a link to that because I don't believe that is correct at all

ManicBlue

3/6/15 1:26pm

The link is in the post

mogelijk

3/6/15 1:41pm

thanks ... so it's a small deal then

ManicBlue

3/6/15 3:06pm

Except when you start to consider what the MWC pays out

mogelijk

3/6/15 3:16pm

yes definitely

ManicBlue

3/6/15 3:36pm

IMO, Notre Dame is a no go.

boscatar

I don't believe the 12 team rate is currently true

So, football only could make sense? But only if CCG game is needed...

Not impossible, but you have to think unlikely

We need to impress in '15 to get a shot at any P5, but tuff schedule=opportunity

byujdmba

3/6/15 12:19pm

It is not W-L... It is $$$ and can BYU bring it with the next best candidate

AzCoug1

3/6/15 12:42pm

BYU - SDSU makes more sense than your 2 combos.

Walter Bellhaven

3/6/15 12:37pm

This seems legit!!

cougarnerd

3/6/15 12:39pm

At the end of the day it will be a lot more dollars and a few cents

AzCoug1

3/6/15 12:39pm

That is part of WVU's problem

mogelijk

3/6/15 1:41pm

How many years in a row does the B12 need to be shut out

Reasonable1

3/6/15 2:19pm

If it happens in 2015-16, look for a quick response through expansion

Cougarpride

3/6/15 4:10pm

Maybe but Baylor still has a pathetic OOC schedule

ManicBlue

3/6/15 4:23pm

SDSU makes sense for any conference for SoCal exposure/bowls.
