Realignment Megathread (All The Moves)

[ISUCyclones2015]

I get why people are disliking this, but its likely the best realistic outcome for the Big 12 in all of this.

It’s not the schools that is the issue it’s the proposed divisions

They aren't doing divisions you guys

What time was this Arizona gegents meeting again? Isn't it ongoing right now? Is it live-streamed?

Darn West Coast. Guess we better get used to this late night stuff.

Word to the wise: The AZ BoR will go into executive session which won't be broadcast. So don't expect to watch anything worthwhile.

It's closed meeting anyway so nothing to watch

[Dr.bannedman]

does the night life go later in Arizona? to avoid the heat?

Wish we could get Missouri back and skip Utah or some crap. I hate Missouri but they are fun to root against and it’s not a bad drive for a football game. Bonus that I was on the sidelines at missouri when Troy hit 2k yards

I imagine details leak out pretty quickly following its completion.

The scheer guy will say “they’re really close to taking the vote and everything is on track to go to the big12” and the clownzano guy will say “sources say there was a lot of trepidation about making a move”

Arizona doesn't change their clocks for daylight savings time. They stay on Mountain Standard Time year round. So, part of the year they are 2 hours behind us. The other part of the year, they are only 1 hour behind us.

Pro tip, the clock on my phone can display what the current time is in different cities. Helps when working with people in different time zones and countries.

Agreed with 14. 16 they probably won’t because of how things are trending, but I’d argue they should. Once these leagues go to 16, then the talk should be going to a 10 game schedule to play as many teams in your conference as possible. But that likely doesn’t happen until it’s time to negotiate TV contracts again.

My other humble opinion, the PAC 12 will survive this round of realignment. Simply because they have A5 status and good bowl tie-ins.

Just like what we did to the AAC, they will cherry puck from the Mountain West conference.

It gets really easy if they agree to take 6 schools. Those schools would then have a majority vote in the MWC to set exit fees or dissolve the conference.

*This is what A5 means. It was a key leverage point in getting schools from the AAC to join the Big XII instead of the AAC gutting the Big XII.

A5 won’t matter after this season.

Would rather go north and south.

Would rather do no divisions at all.

I’d rather do a pod with Colorado, KSU, and KU.
