It's a move geared toward recruiting in a new market. I'm not sure how important that is, given that Mike Riley could get kids from Texas. Except now the 4 corner schools will be recruiting Texas more than ever, since they will be playing games there. All the defecting teams have either significantly reduced the number of games they will play in California (SC, UCLA) or eliminated them completely (ASU, UA, Utah, Colorado). That's where the opportunity will be, especially if our new conference is totally western-based. And CA has a ton of universities.

First report I've seen of actual talks happening. This guy has been pretty spot on with info on all the realignment, so this is encouraging. Really hope Wazzu is the other team instead of SDSU though.

Wazzu likely left in the cold, as BXII is reportedly interested in Gonzaga as a non-football member, since they fancy themselves a premier hoops conference

How do we feel about a possible move to BXII? Similar impacts on non-football sports, but would keep us alive as a P5 program
