Assuming Navy comes in, who else?

I'll put my money on the Air Force as we'll need more in the West.

Although who knows what the landscape will be ...

Colorado State? AFA or BYU if they don't have a choice to join a conference. This is if we don't get poached again.

BYU has already said no to us and could join B12. It's a large bigwest team taht would fit nicely with our new west teams

BYU also turned down the B12 before they turned down the BE. The issue with BYU is the rebroadcast rights of the first and second teir games. The conferences want BYU to yield those rights and BYU doesn't want to yield their rights on that. The most likely candidate is AFA, the current commanding general declined joining the BE because he did not see a financial gain to joining the BE. I think he was anticipating a fall in TV revenue, but a new TV contract could change that. Also I think that his rotation ends next year and a new commanding general could have a very different viewpoint. Outide of AFA I think the most likely would be either Colorado State or Nevada, Nevada brings a better program to the conference but Colorado State brings a bigger TV audience.

I'd love to see BYU, but they'll have to budge on broadcast rights. My guess is we're more likely to have Air Force or Nevada.

Nevada, Air Force, Colorado State, Fresno State, Utah State. All would dramatically improve with a move to the Big East, so any of those I would be good with.
