It looks like Yormark way outplayed the PAC 12. Who knows for sure how it will

If Utah could get better attendance at MBB, maybe the WCC would consider them?

Little Mac

Those heathens would never accept a WCC invite.

Good point. They would be near the bottom of the barrel academically in the WCC

I think BYU would be supportive of Utah joining the B12

How about having Utah relegated to a G5 or at the very least the weakest P5?

Why would we go to bat for them? What value do they add? The “huge” Utah market?

The football Gods will not allow us to get the upper hand on Utah

deliciousmocha

And by "football gods" you mean intra-state politics.

It is a good thing if the B12 makes decisions before BYU has a say.

Once he was freed of the shackles of Texas and OU, he made some good moves.

TerpCoug

1/30/23 2:08pm

Agreed. And the rift he created with ESPN was necessary to hold the league

Isn't Flugaur just another G Swaim?

Hey, leave Texas out of this

All-American

I have no beef w/ Texas being arrogant because it led to open spots in the B12

cougarmeister

The hubris of the PAC12 destroyed them from the inside

As long as the PAC has the University of Utah, the PAC will always be a power conference.

Just ask Ute fans and they will tell educate you on this very important point.

100% chance I'll be happy if the PAC doesn't survive

My concern is that then the Big XII would add Utah.

They should play every year or not at all.

If reports are true, how are the remaining PAC teams so stupid to not jump ship
