Recruiting effect from SDSU/BSU move to AQ status
Does anyone see any potential fallout from recruiting with this move? I'm not really concerned about Boise as much, but the Big East adding SDSU is a real surprise to me. The Big East still sucks, but for Boise and SDSU this is a great move, well, unless CP bolts

How can they even call themselves the Big East anymore when it stretches from coast to coast? It's now more like the Saving Our AQ-Status Conference.

SDSU being in the Big East is hilarious. Reminds me of when the Atlanta Braves used to be in the NL West.

These schools certainly don't care about travel time...

I don't see much of a fallout here.

Well the way all the experts where talking about it, is if the big east were able to get a west division they would design the schedules so that every team would travel at most 2 games to an opposite division game per year in a 16 team division. the WAC is pretty spread out too.TheMaehlMan wrote:These schools certainly don't care about travel time...

I heard the Big East has decided to change it's name to the Conference of Rejects.

Stewart Mandel-"From a purely aesthetic standpoint, I much prefer to watch a good spread-rushing offense over a traditional Power-I offense, and Oregon's has been the most fun by far for the past several years. It's fast, its precise, and when Chip Kelly has the right quarterback (Dixon, Masoli) at the helm, the possibility of someone ripping off a 60-yard run exists on nearly every play."

Just keep the unofficial name they've had for for years--the Big Least. They are the easily the least deserving schools of AQ status.

Close this thread out-- It is going down hill fast.
We might was well start sharing whether UofO should have a med school.
