I grew up a PAC fan…it ceased to be what it was when UU and CU were added

PAC vs MWC

I honestly don't know who the PAC gets that doesn't bring the average down.

I mean they already added Utah State, so I think that's their play. Gotta get

They'll eventually get Memphis, UTSA & Tulane. Maybe USF as well.

Memphis said no

the Pac-x fans are hoping that Memphis will eventually say yes if Pac-x offers

They didn't say 'No' to the PAC. They said 'No' to the PAC's first offer.

I took his comments to mean he wants the Big12 or ACC

RGGeemer

No. He was specifically addressing the offer from the PAC.

Heaven help us…Big 12, just say no. As bad as the Utah add.

Why would any of those teams join the PAC?

Because the AAC is a one bid basketball league & was gutted in FB

I don’t see how Memphis or Tulane make that work at all travel wise

There isn't a big enough difference in pay to change leagues any more

New Mexico State & Texas State are the obvious targets for the MWC

Agree. I assumed that NMSt would have been added –

Forced because they had to get to 8?

Yes

They could have also snagged NMSt. Hawaii was a solid choice. Fun destination &

Hawaii’s never had the will for a decent stadium (or airport). It’s sad.

There's something about the PAC name that makes its schools stupid.

Just love the fact that USU is now in the PAC.

Also love the fact that BYU is the only one of the three big Utah schools never

Current mwc is really really bad.

"PAC blew it." - I don't think so. They are still a stronger conference than the MWC. The MWC feels like the MAC West.
