Well it’s not a more valid claim and it’s stupid to denigrate theirs but not ours. That’s zoob behavior. But you are right that we should claim it and be recognized as co-champs. Two recognized selectors that year put Utah #1 and the NCAA recognizes it. So should we.

Meh

I still think the SEC, in order to strategically compete with the Big-10 and draw a more national audience may seriously consider expanding West and Central. Perhaps considering grabbing schools like ASU, UA, CU, Utah, Kansas, or maybe even SDSU to get into California.

Also, don’t be shocked if Texas A&M ends up in the B1G. I’ve heard rumors…[Read more]

Agree and disagree. I suggest that we aren’t sleeping but we also aren’t a giant. There is still room for growth and cementing is as a power. We aren’t there yet.

I think it’s working for me too. But admittedly, I’ve been traveling and not on the site too often.

ASU make the most sense, but we’ve all been saying it for decades and it hasn’t happened.

I’ll be the Homer and say Utah. We have the continuity, culture, and are an extremely well run university in one of the 3 most well run states. On top of that, I’d argue that Utah HS sports may only be 2nd to California in talent being produced out west.

Giddy up! Really going to try and make this one. Will be awesome.

For sure. The only way a super league hairband that doesn’t include, say, Vandy or Indiana, is of the posts in B1G and SEC leave their corns and create a new entity.

Well, I did address what you are saying in my last paragraph. Hence why we absolutely couldn’t turn down an invite should it come.

If what they ate doing in basketball translate to football, then BYU will definitely spend in nil for football. The question is does the board of trustees and Ryan Smith think it’s worth all that for football and their 85 players or do they want byu to be a basketball school and pay more for their 12-16 players?

I definitely wouldn’t turn down an invite to the B1G or SEC, but there’s an argument to be made that e could be way better if in the 12 is we are able to consistently win the conference, make the playoff and build the brand. The big negative to going to the other two is that we’ll be directly competing with all the blue bloods and have a much…[Read more]

Private schools don’t report revenue. The only schools on this list are public schools.

They weren’t really decent before Nike, so I’m not sure they’d be any better than what Cal has been.

I think the media got it right, not necessarily with where the ranking is end of season. But what it should be today and knowing what we know.

It’s kinda astounding that ASU is where it is as a program. They are almost the anti-Utah, a school that just can’t gets its act together athletically.

The two most intriguing to me are Colorado and…[Read more]

Great article. Boy are we fortunate to have such competent leadership across the board. It’s fun being a Utah fan.

Surprised that Texas Tech is the next highest B12.

I’ll also add that this list is public schools only.

Good move for recruiting. I’m confident that our competitors for croots are using the likelihood of Whit retiring against us. Knowing that there’s a succession plan and stability will be a big deal. It isn’t better than Whitt bing here for the next 10 years with confidence, but better than having to go through a whole coaching search and upending…[Read more]
