Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

If the B1G is no option, what would you like to see happen to the Huskies/Pac-12?

    Turn Husky Stadium into a pea patch and drop football 20%



    I'm kinda surprised. I thought the Big12 option would win handily.

    Riffing here: Baylor, Oklahoma State, BYU and San Diego State (first choice) to the Pac. If we? keep UCLA, drop Oklahoma State. Boom. Beefed up Pac.

    ACC stays intact. Great alliance.

    SEC still wins 8 out of 10 titles, but at least we're? all still playing big boy football.

    Agree with others. You HAVE to do something.

    Pac should also cancel all remaining games with SC and make them scramble.

    And no Boise. Please. Pass.

    Big 12 alliance isn't a disaster, but it's not good. Kansas is a perennial top ten hoops school. That's about it. It's the best of bad options.

    I like the idea of SMU and inroads into Dallas.

    I would almost be willing to lose Ore st and WSU if we could get Texas markets like SMU and T Tech.

    We could still appease CUOG by having a neutral site rivalry game every year at the pro stadium in Seattle (whatever the hell they call it now days).

    The recently floated B12/Pac12 merger by I think Stew Mandel at the Athletic is not something I totally hate. It’s an ok way forward from the current situation if nothing better is available.

    I just view the ACC schools as generally more valuable and interesting schools than the new B12. Those schools are more on UW’s level. The only new B12 school I consider on our level - across academis, the entirety of the athletic department, their market size and brand - is Kansas.

    This was all just a long con by Petersen to get Boise in the PAC-12. He had us duped from the beginning.

    Petersen crafted his diabolical plan with Phil Knight back when Pete was a WRs Coach at Oregon. Tedford was OC at Oregon at the time and was involved in this conspiracy.

    It all worked like clockwork.

    Washington to the Ivy League per Jimmy Lake.
    Give UW’s Administration a break and sever the amount of $$$ and headaches associated with NCAA Division I Sports.

    Agreed. Sans Texas and Oklahoma, it's a Tweener conference.

    UW goes independent and signs a deal with Amazon Prime. "Anyone, any place, any time!"

    Just like the PAC sans the LA schools.
