I agree they are attractive. that would not be a shock
and at this point I'd be shocked if UCI, USCD, and Long Beach haven't at least had a discussion, even if it was dismissed.
Davis leaving is quite a jolt Previous Message
UCSD has the most long term potential. Heck, they can even afford to start a FBS football program in the future. They have more media coverage in San Diego than LB, Irvine, or SB in the LA market. Previous Message
...has to believe the Mountain West is in contact with one or two SoCal schools in the Big West
this came out of the blue, so the MWC obviously has been contacting schools
...the end of the beginning or the beginning of the end! Previous Message
from Davis' point of view, they were in a conference saturated in So Cal, so this has them more broader exposure.
I do think this potentially now means the MWC may actually look at 1 or 2 Socal teams, yikes
if I was the MWC, not so sure about UCSB, given where it is, but .....Irvine, Long Beach, & UCSD might be a target.
a move to the MWC has risks though, and may not end up being great if the MWC is just some watered down version of the WAC.
most interesting thing is the Pac-12, they still need a football school. in the west, the Pac-12 is still the place to be for football and basketball, ....for now Previous Message
Except for football. Didn't see this coming. Better go get Cal Baptist now.
