I think the indication now is that Oregon is safe. But Big 10 waiting to make an announcement of all at the same time? That's what the wait is for?

If they are in the B1G then they won’t get away with the same shenanigans they’ve gotten away with in the Pac-12.duckfan22 wrote:OregonFan4Life wrote:You guys, we may never have to watch Pac-12 refs screw Oregon again!
LOL the problem is the b1g would hire them if the pac dissolves

Fairly certain this is the case with Oregon, not sure it's with UW yet. But I imagine they want to announce schools at the same time rather than multiple one school announcements. Washington's recent statement they put out makes it sound like they are currently turned away.DuckzRule wrote:I also heard that the B1G actually accepted UO's and UW's admissions but they are waiting to see if they can add ND and another random school so they can be added all at once
Yes. Their ridiculous silence leads you to believe that is true. I would say Oregon's silence also speaks to that.DuckzRule wrote:I've heard the reason Notre Dame has been taking so long is because they're currently ending their contract with the ACC or something like that.
I'd bet I'm probably the biggest Beaver fan on this board, as their wrestling team is in contention with the Ducks MBB team for the in-state program I care the second most about behind Oregon football. That said, I've long felt the existence of both major programs has been to their mutual detriment. The state is too small and cares too little about sports to split evenly between two fanbases.StreeterCL wrote:Wow Canzano is desperate to save the Beavs. His article he put out about Phil being able to save the conference is a huge emotional plea rather than anything logical or financially lucrative.

Oregon State can continue to compete at a high level in baseball, women's gymnastics, and wrestling from outside a power 5 conference. Oregon moves closer to parity with other major universities.
Well then this thought that I've been having might not be wasted on someone- a huge benefit to me is that B1G bylaws require schools have a wrestling team. If that's where Oregon lands, the wrestling program ostensibly comes back to life, a huge boost to wrestling in the PNW where only the beavs have a program and all the best kids go east, just like football.StreeterCL wrote:
Oregon State wrestling is coming along nicely. I'm in Nebraska but I have been paying attention.
