That's not a typo. You think the WMC could afford more than one hooker?

Boise State University has sued the Mountain West Conference. WOW.

Could this result in Boise State bolting from the MWC?

Where would they go? And please don't suggest a new conference w/ BYU and others

The American Athletic Conference for football. Big West, WAC, or WCC all others

Would the AAC really want to stretch all the way to Boise for a football only?

I doubt it. They probably wouldn't even want to add us right now. I think they

Isn't UConn a public state university?

Yes.

That makes sense. Thanks for clarifying.

UCSB is the only UC school ever to be in the WCC.

They could always claim a Truck Driving Research Department.

Why not? I still think both BYU and BSU added to the AAC would not be bad.

Does the AAC have the right to renegotiate TV money if they add 2 teams?

Probably trying to figure out a way to leave the MWC and not have to pay a buyout.

Just a little reminder of why we left in the first place.

For all those who say BYU should just go back and get a TV deal like BSU's.

what is your take on the return to the MWC?

shimmy

1/22/20 11:24am

I've always wanted BYU to go to the AAC, not the MWC... but just for the record, we did just go 2-2 vs the MWC

RE: And?

Coug

1/22/20 11:30am

So if both are dumpster fires why would we leave the dumpster fire paying us more and we make our own rules?

JohnnyComeLately

1/22/20 11:32am

Cause the AAC isn't a dumpster fire...

Coug

1/22/20 11:34am

The AAC is an east coast and Texas conference.

JohnnyComeLately

We just traveled 4 times to the east coast this last year, all of them east of Texas.

you should go back and erase all of your posts advocating for the MWC over independence.

I've always advocated for the AAC... but feel that Independence is not any better than the MWC

Coug

1/22/20 12:36pm

Do you think it is dishonest to say that you haven't claimed BYU should return to the MWC over independence?

shimmy

Sigh... sure dude whatever... I honestly hate this, I'm out on the conference/independence discussion...

This is the difference b/t BSU & BYU. They sue & we turn the other cheek then finally get out of Dodge.

Did we have a contractual agreement with MWC to get more money than the rest of the teams?

It doesn't fit the popular CB narrative, but BYU didn't turn the other cheek

They allowed the MWC to kick the can then finally said enough. Turning the other cheek was simply giving them

Soupie

So you think that Boise didn't have behind-the-scenes discussions with the MWC?

I'm sure they did. The difference is they are suing and we just left.

Yep. I still see nothing in the Boise media referencing it.
