What's this?

Big 12 has been tough

I don't think travel is as big of a factor as some believe. Mountaineer basketball certainly hasn't suffered and there are a lot more road trips. Not that much difference in travelling from Morgantown to Norman as it is to Tallahassee. If there's a better team on the other sideline you're going to get beat. We haven't been able to compete depthwise with of upper half of the Big 12. Hopefully that will change this year.

Football and basketball travel should not be that much of an issue. But -- RJHokie 08/13/2018 12:23PM

I don' think so -- Millpoint 08/13/2018 3:17PM

Cost is not a problem for WVU -- M-I-C 08/13/2018 2:22PM

The Big 12 recently turned down expansion & extending GOR...what changes? ** -- Stech 08/16/2018 12:19PM

Pretty much my assertion as well -- M-I-C 08/16/2018 3:44PM

ND is not going to join the Big Ten -- TerryD 08/16/2018 07:32AM

I agree to an extent -- M-I-C 08/16/2018 3:53PM

An assumption -- M-I-C 08/18/2018 3:26PM

Notre Dame is mostly a living museum to things that happened 30+ years ago -- Tailgate Guru 08/19/2018 01:19AM

Yet, the ACC and the Big Ten want ND football to join their conference -- TerryD 08/19/2018 09:06AM

The same answer to most such questions - straight cash. -- Tailgate Guru 08/19/2018 09:55AM

I heard this 20 years ago -- TerryD 08/20/2018 07:30AM

I took it as a gratuitous attack on ND. I think ND is good right now -- TerryD 08/17/2018 2:55PM

I mean...do you care about being wanted as a full member of a conference? -- Gobbler-100 09/04/2018 02:18AM

You want to assume it was an attack -- M-I-C 08/18/2018 3:32PM

I do see why you came to that conclusion and you may be right -- VTHokie2000 08/17/2018 3:46PM

Notre Dame -- Millpoint 08/16/2018 11:55AM

The only reason would be travel reduction. -- HOO86 08/16/2018 12:29PM

That was for hockey, because Hockey East is a bus league -- TerryD 08/17/2018 09:00AM

Notre Dame isn't interested in leaving the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic. -- HOO86 08/16/2018 6:08PM

Right now I agree with you. -- VTHokie2000 08/17/2018 12:55PM

Sure. A lot could be different in 2036. ** -- HOO86 08/17/2018 1:06PM
