[QUOTE="stevenewilson, post: 574942, member: 16898"] QUOTE(YA @ Jun 11 2010, 09:50 AM) [snapback]574856[/snapback] This is what some guy posted on another message board. I would be curious to know how accurate this is: This is the current Mountian West Conference priority list of expansion candidates in the order of their desireability by the Mwc. Some of you may not know that Kansas is in talks with the Mtn West as we speak and has been for a few days now. Kansas St found out about it and beat feet to Mtn West offices also. Mizzou is in a tight spot now and current talk out of the Big10 is that Mizzou is not a sure thing for the Big10. So Mizzou also contacted the Mtn West and is gathering information just in case. Some of you may not be aware that the Mtn West is scheduled to get BCS status (according to the BCS Commissioner) in 2011. The BCS has also informed the Mtn West that if they do get BCS status in 2011 and the Big12 collapses, the Mtn West is "very likely" to take over the BCS Fiesta Bowl auto-bid hosting slot. So there wont be any Mwc teams joinging a "rump Big12", when the vested interest of the Mtn West is to see the Big12 fail. Boise St is a sure thing for the Mtn West but they got put on hold due to all the confusion and all the phone calls the Mtn West is getting. The Mtn West will be taking 3 teams and only 3 teams. They currently have 9 teams and the Mtn West Commish says they will halt expansion at 12 because the Mtn West does not have a big TV deal like the PAC10 will have. In 2015-2016 the Mwc Commish said the league would consider adding 2-4 more teams if the TV deal is increased dramatically at that time. Therefore there are 3 openings in the Mtn West until 2015 at the earliest. Why not reform the Big 12 by taking the 5 remaining teams and adding TCU, Boise St, BYU, Utah, Air Force, Colorado St. and New Mexico or if not Colorado St. and New Mexico, pick two top teams from the WAC or CUSA. The new Big 12. It's the only way to get rid of the bottom feeders in the MWC. [/QUOTE]
