Tuxedo Conan's thoughts on the next round of expansion...

Conan

That's my ideal scenario.

So, tell me, Tuxedo Conan... if Nebraska goes back to the Big12

He already told you in his very post.

WVU to the ACC

oh yeah... sorry, I just didn't consider them an Addition... #WestVirginiaMath

FYI, Boston is a pro sports town. BC doesn't move the needle.

With the Big10 network business model it doesn't matter. TV sets with cable is

that business model is going to be dead in 5 years.

Bostonblue

9/22/15 10:24am

That's the guess. No one really knows. The B1G signs a new deal for their TV

YIsForBrigham

9/22/15 10:30am

the B1G would be foolish to expand based on TV markets when it appears

I believe this will cause the next major round of realignment in a decade.

Nebraska boosters may be unhappy, but no way they give up the $$

Or prestige

Or security of the Big 10.

Chalk Nebraska to the Big 12 up there with Arkansas to the Big 12, ND to the Big

CSU brings nothing. Maybe the Fort Collins market.

Mister P

9/22/15 10:21am

according to the USA today there are more CSU fans in Colorado than CU fans

TheDeek

9/22/15 10:22am

That may be true but CU and CSU are barely mentioned on the 10:00 news.

Is there any town with a significant pro sports presence that would be

crack

9/22/15 10:27am

Salt lake?

YIsForBrigham

9/22/15 10:32am

I wouldn't consider that a significant presence since it is only one sport. But

crack

9/22/15 10:35am

usc, cincinnati and clevland Ohio gets lots of viewers. plenty of other

cougarfann888

9/22/15 10:40am

that's because both teams suck... if one of them was any good it'd be different

TheDeek

9/22/15 10:43am

Maybe the suck because they have no following?

Mister P

9/22/15 10:45am

Not true at all. Good fan base in Denver.

Walter Bellhaven

lot's of wishful thinking

...Louisville is already in the ACC

YIsForBrigham

re: boston college - I think they're happy with ACC.

Revolution

9/22/15 10:39am

There's no good fit left in NE. UConn would be best, but would be a big stretch

Gustav

9/22/15 10:49am

BC will not move to any conference without their rival Miami

Y'zMan

9/22/15 12:34pm

WOW! This is the biggest brain fart yet.

digitalayon

9/22/15 10:50am

Well, you had similar thoughts 3 months ago...

Conan

9/22/15 11:05am

way different.....mine was stating the difference of weight a schools has

digitalayon

9/22/15 11:10am

right...

Ha! Now that there is pretty funny!

Nebraska is not going back to the Big XII

mannheimadler

9/22/15 10:55am

Agreed....They love Iowa as their main rival.

digitalayon

Nebraska's fans were so amazing I'd love to be in a conf with them

I agree with were assessment

Before they added Louisville I would have agreed with you.

Louisville was a great add for basketball...WVa, nah, not so much...and really,

Nebraska to the PAC with Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, Texas Tech, and Iowa State

Makes sense, so obviously won't happen. This is the Big XII we are talking about

JohnnyComeLately

9/22/15 2:30pm

It would take re-alignment apocolypse for this to happen... and then all rules
