Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

[FerShizzle]

Totally agree. I don't think he gets canned either, as it seems like he's done some good work for the university. But to think that disgruntled fans are going to get him fired for decisions based solely on Athletics is crazy.

I do think that he wanted, and was doing anything he could to stay in the PAC as he sees those universities as more prestigious than the Big 12. It was only when Oregon and Washing announced they were leaving for the PAC that he was essentially in a corner to the point where the BOR would have told him to make the move.

I think Crow is going to be a PR issue for Big12 member institutions. I see him making underhanded comments about our schools as he doesn't seem to think we are at his level. I said it earlier, but the Big 12 needs to put him in his place.

I think Crow wants to be the president at a school like Stanford or Cal.

I suggest:

The Conference

"The Conference Formerly Known as 12"

turns to...

"The Conference"

and eventually we use the Mayan symbol for 12:

Crow sounds like an f'n moron when he talks.

Whether it be their media, commissioner, and guys like Crow, this realignment is sure poking some holes in the idea that the PAC is loaded with intellectuals.

I have yet to hear any of these people talk or read what they write and not come out convinced that these are flat-out stupid men.

Absolutely and he would probably be a good fit. ASU is going into the AAU as we are dropping out.

Would be hilarious to see branding like B16 in the style of Big 10’s B1G

Since we now have Central Florida from Orlando, how about "Big Mouse Conference" or "Disney's Wide World Conference".

Or we could be the "National Best of the Best" or NBB Conference. Or like Musk we could just be XX or even XXX to cover all bases and eventualities (kisses for all).

The Big 16 trademark is owned by a canada bagel company

how close are we do having conferences with ad deals?

Love's Big 12 or Dr Pepper Big 12 or something

This shows the greed of the Athletics departments broke up the conference , but everyone blames the TV money.

What happens when these teams that are used to going 11-1 and complaining, start going 7-5 in a super conference.

Their fans are going to be pissed.

Sounds like Nebraska's fans

Anybody remember the Dr Pepper Big 12 Championship game where the contestant wins if he/she could catch machine punted footballs during the halftime show? It was a middle age lady that was the contestant. The result: not even close. What a dumb idea.

I spent the time (@ 1.5x speed) to hear what T Altimore had to say about realignment a couple weeks later. Holy s*** he can't even admit he was wrong. Such hubris in everything he says that is wrong.

I heard Michael Eat Crow and George Turn Your Head And Kliavkoff will be starting their own consulting firm to help universities navigate the realignment process.

How about "The Truck Stop Conference" presented by Caseys?

Been listening to that, not quite through it. God that guy is an ass. The host makes me chuckle, though.
