It would be awesome to move to the Big 12 and win it our first year there.  Having never won the BE.  Ah to dream.

Are there people here seriously disputing a move to the Big XII?

 

Yes. It is absolutely the wrong conference for us.

 

Remember a couple years ago, when it was about to fall apart with the rumours of OU and TX pulling out? Without those two teams the B12 is deadmen walking.

 

Even with those 2 teams, we only want to go there because of the money.

 

If we go, we'll live to regret it.

Depressing if for no other reason than we would be the only Big East school that never got invited out.

You must not have any desire to win a Natty Championship and content playing in the Pinstripe Bowl every year

I have every desire to do so, and I have zero desire to play outdoors in a NY baseball stadium in December

 

I also have zero desire to play in the B12. We don't fit there, and don't belong there.

 

My first choice would be ACC, as a power conference member

 

A distance second would be the AAC, if the whole conference would be elevated to be a power conference.

 

SEC would be next, followed by B10

 

The B12 would be last on the list, along with SBC, PAC, MWC, and MAC

 

The ONLY reason to go to the B12 would be if NONE of the first four chances were possible, because we had to do it to get the money to remain competitive. But I wouldn't have to like it.

I think the first time Oklahoma or Texas came to RJS I'd start warming up to the idea. But hasn't WVU been ******** about the scheduling/travel for all if its non-football sports?

They sure have. Funny though, I'm yet to hear them whine about those fat checks they're cashing from the B12. I'm sure the AAC would take them back if they were really so miserable.

The only hope we have is that last choice. Big12 or big fat nothing. No way the AAC would be on equal standing with the P5. Even if the fancy fooseball overlords made the AAC part of the new "D1" there would be no respect and zero chance of playing for anything of significance.
