Apparently not everybody wants BYU in the Big 12. http://www.foxsports.com/college-football/story/25-lgbt-groups-send-letter-to-big-12-urging-it-to-shun-byu-080816 http://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/17251009/big-12-urged-lgbt-advocacy-groups-not-admit-byu-expansion-school Funny how the...

If this is a Wyoming Cowboy board, then by proxy what makes the MWC a better conference, has everything to do with Wyoming and it's athletic department. There isn't a flaming snowballs chance in hell Wyoming gets into a P5 conference any time soon. Entertaining that thought is a lot crazier than ent...

Why not? The Big 12 sounded the horn. UNM has just as good of a chance as the Rams, slim to none. The Big XII needs need s*it or get off the pot at this point, though.

Read this earlier too. I still think because The Pit has the lineage, they should edge Viejas. Thought USU would beat us out for sure but nonetheless, good to see the heads in Bristol think highly of the AA

The TV-market argument is kind of an ancillary reason but it's not the brick and mortar. Whether we hate them or not, the Sheep aimed for the stars and ponied up the money to show a P5 conference they were willing to spend money to make money. Sitting back and wishing/hoping you get invited to a big...

I still can't believe they are even mentioned as a possibility. Why isn't Wyoming mentioned as a possibility? Laramie is only 60 miles off of Ft. Collins. If the Rams can claim this horse poop "Denver TV market" argument, why can't UW? Had the Cowboys built a shiny new stadium or expanded...

Why does everyone think the PAC-12 wants to expand? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Yeah, I have no idea either. If anything, they could trim the fat and be better off without Wash St. and Oregon St. I think it's more of a domino effect assumption that when the Big XII collapses under the tremen...

Looks as if Houston's a lock with the Governor, Lieutenant Governor, and UT President all backing them. This is why I hate the Longhorns. The UT-System has directional schools up and down Texas but has never been able to find it's way to Houston. UT recently tried to purchase 250+ acres to build a ...

No sense in speculating about other schools at this point. From what it sounds like, CSU is not going to get in the Big XII. I bet it's Cincy and Houston which, as a Kansas native, I would love to see the Jayhawks play Cincy each season. Where does Wyoming go from here? From reading a few other topi...

Some are not like the others. The Dakots and Montana? You haven't been around long enough to say crap like this. I don't even know where to start. Again, this has nothing to do with the on-the-field products. I never said Wyoming needs to move down to FCS (because I don't believe that), so not sure...

If the Big XII and BYU can't come to an agreement because of BYU's religious concessions, do you think BYU tries to stay the course, dig in their heels, and continue trying to be the Mormon version of Notre Dame as an independent? Or can you see them be humbled enough to come back to the MW? BYU pro...

media markets are a big deal my plan Rings Denver Houston Los Angeles San Francisco in addition to Spokane and Wichita and the Salt Lake Valley into the Mountain West. you never want a Montana or a Dakota school you want teams big cities that have high potential to become good. Long Beach State cou...

s: Mountain West needs to be expanding as well. Houston BYU Wichita and Gonzaga. Step 2- long besan, pepperdine,san francisco denver. Then figure out if you want another texas school weather it's all paso smu . I think you want tulane Houston and BYU might not be options for the MW at this point co...

I mean if the Big XII really cared about the Denver market why did they ever let CU leave? They already had the biggest collegiate draw in the state of Colorado. Don't even start to claim that CSU is a better fit than CU already was. CU's history, facilities, and fan base trump the sheep. Why would...
