starting with hiring Leach, then stadium renovations. They spent a lot of money they didn't have... they'll have a hard time recovering from this.

More from my sports reporter friend in Spokane on WSU:

Mike Leach jumped ship right in time.

And Nick Rolovich

MWC would pick up or WCC

Or they go down a notch and join the Big Sky

Y-Zag

7/5/22 9:56am

Both WSU and OSU are big enough that MWC would be dumb not to try to get them.

here's to hoping

7/5/22 11:08am

WSU just doesn't offer anything.

Unless you really like long plane flights.

I think Oregon State is in the middle of a stadium remodel too. It's got to stink to be those two schools.

You're right.

Wazzu and Oregon State are the first P5 dead weight to go. More to follow I'm sure.

They'd be happier in the MWC anyway. poorer, but happier.

CougarTwins

Just like Utes in the Terrestrial Kingdom.

I sure wish we could put Utah in a panic by not talking to them

Oregon State and Washington State would be well-suited for the MWC. It would be

Oregon State and Washington State can’t go to the MWC

Unfortunately, they will have to make difficult decisions

Huge Manatee

Sounds like they can sue someone? They have squatters rights at least

jrifkin48

7/5/22 11:00am

They might not have a choice.

Jeffacka

7/5/22 11:43am

If that's true, then they deserve it even more. They had an unearned gravy

The Big 12 was already stretching a bit to add UH, UCF, and UC

They would actually probably fit best in the MWC. That would suck if you are a

I want WSU to join the Big12, but im biased being from WA.

Went to the WSU game in Pullman last year and enjoyed it.

AF Cougar

Me too. I'd love to see it as a regular conference game so I could go.

I don’t feel even a little bad for them. They don’t know it yet but they’ll like life in the MWC better anyways

YIsForBrigham

7/5/22 9:46am

Same. Let them burn.

kotacoug

7/5/22 9:47am

That’s just too bad… I really feel bad for those bottom feeder P5 teams that

kotacoug

7/5/22 9:46am

I hope the P12 stays put. It will be MWC lite. Change the name back to P10 just so Utes have to change stickers and tats

Ragnar Danneskjold

It’s actually somewhat enjoyable to watch…

The Y's Insider

7/5/22 9:49am

I kind of agree. Schools like Indiana, Illinois, Northwestern, Vandy, etc. etc.

macdizzle

7/5/22 9:57am

I mean, the B12 has a point. Those two teams are trash. Add Utah to them and MWC here they come.

Romex

Sad

It is. My son transferred away from Wazzu, but there are a lot of athletes

All these coat-tail teams were lucky to start with, the most lucky Vanderbilt
