Washington
San Diego State
Fresno State
Nevada
Hawaii
San Jose State

I'll bet we would win that division 3 out of every 5 years.

    Road trips to Hawaii, San Diego, Las Vegas and the Bay Area with a chance to win the division every now and then? Sign me up!!!

    Shitty teams and fun road trips. I'm in.

    Unlikely. Recruiting would be even shittier than it is now. This falls in to the “all else being equal” logical fallacy.

    It's possible to recruit a negative number of players?

    Tyrone W could see in the future. Loved seeing player x offer list at the end of us, Fresno, Portland State, San Jose St, and we'd be their choice.

    That was 2008. He wasn't wrong, just 20 years early.

    There was smoke about Oregon and USC joining the Big Ten recently with no talk about Washington. I wouldn't be shocked to see the Pac-10 again. If that happened...

    PROS
    Not getting beaten by Oregon every year
    Easy path to a conference championship and 10-win seasons
    Recruiting against programs that are probably on the same level with NIL and what they're willing to do

    CONS
    Officially getting kicked out of big time football
    Absolutely no money or exposure
    How do you fill a 70,000 stadium playing in the Academis Mountain West?

    I don't think that will happen. Geographically, it's stupid. USC and whOregon have no recruiting ties to the midwest and east.

    Media market and TV revenue from upcoming contract just magically disappear from the equation in all these arguments. UW will never go to MW/FCS. That's not a thing and never will be.
