So they plan on suing the conference with no alternative conference to join? Not smart
If that's the way you see this, you are not very smart indeed. I know you hate Boise, and for years any topic of them was sure to have you jump in with ignorant/smart ass comment, but you can't be this ignorant. We all know better.

The MWC is already the WAC 2.0, don’t kid yourself
Bwaha. Again with the childish shots, eh...

The MWC is clearly better than the WAC and a football person of like yourself knows that. But again, your hate puts a smile on my face every time, Boy. :D

My point stands, Boise leaving is awful for the MW.

Do you think going independent is a good decision for Boise State?

Try to answer without insults, raise the level of dialogue

Going independent is a viable option for them. I think this is more of a contractual specific performance action, but it will be interesting to see how it plays out...

PAC should use its head for once and pick up Boise AND BYU. Gawd knows the PAC could use a few more attractive match ups and both schools would bring that.

BYU/Utah is a great/fun rivalry game that the PAC could have as their own. Boise v CU/Utah/BYU/Oregon... I like it.

Plus the PAC is fixin to lose a couple schools to the Big12 in a few years when we expand so go ahead and backfill now while there are good programs available.

Get it done PAC you cut rate turd of a conference...

BYU would add value, but they'll never get the unanimous vote needed.

Boise would dilute the revenue for the conference. 0% chance.

BYU is a religious school that won't play on Sundays. Boise St. doesn't offer enough undergrad degrees in order to meet the PAC requirements.

That's what I'm saying, the PAC needs to wise up and drop that nonsense. Get em while the gettin is good.
Not gonna happen. The PAC will never take BYU. Boise State is a possibility once they grow some more...

Boise State adds nothing financially to the conference. Adding them is the opposite of "wising up".

It is not a good decision in any way. Besides you, who has said anything about going independent?

You've made your disdain for BSU clear over the last ten years or so, but jumping to the worst case scenario is just dumb. The MWC is not going to kick BSU out for taking legal action over money that is rightfully theirs and they have an Agreement to prove it. On top of the fact that kicking them out would be it's own lawsuit and cost the MWC millions, like it or not, Boise State brings more value to the MW than any other school. In not way am I saying they can't live without us, but to deny our value in a G5 is just ignoring the obvious.

What? Boise State has more undergraduate degrees than a few of the PAC schools. That has nothing to do with it. It's about TV sets, and research programs.

Sorry when was the last time anyone in the Big XII did anything?

BYU actually brings more to the table than just football. Nothing against Boise State, but other than football, what do they offer?

Of course you are correct that BYU brings more to the table...but certainly Notre Dame is a less fitting parallel than BYU.

I'm sure you have a point somewhere, but I don't know what it is.
ASU, Arizona, Rice, TCU, were too. But that has nothing to do with him bringing up the WAC. He was doing it as a pot-shot.
Anywho, when you figure out what your point was, send it my way.:noidea:

Basketball and now baseball. Our gymnastics and tennis is consistently nationally ranked, Boise's women's track has brought back a national championship trophy the last two years in a row.

Don't get me wrong, we're not Texas or USC, but we compete in other sports.

Up until 2017, we were in the PAC as a wrestling only member and did very well.
BYU has a gazillion Mormons, so they'll always have a leg up with TV sets. But outside of that and football, they aren't all that great anymore.

calling a the Mountain West WAC 2.0 is accurate considering all the schools came from the WAC

If you choose to see it that way, that is fine. However, the shot is being placed as if it (MWC) was the same as the WAC in it's last days. When U of I, New Mexico St., and others were in it.
But I understand your way of wanting to see it. Us Boise folks have a special place in the hearts of you Dux.:D:suds:
