Re: Big East in Need of a New Name

Some thoughts while at work...I am so bored... CCC - Coast to Coast Conference CMD - Conference Manifest Destiny or the Conference of Mass Destruction, which could have a positive or negative connotation depending on how they play. AAC - All-American Conference LDS - League of Distant Schools GPS -...

Re: Big East in Need of a New Name

So, if BYU decides to join the Big East, doesn't a change in the conference name have to be a priority? With such a large geographic spread, how about Conference USA? I guess not. That's already taken. With 12 teams how about we drop the East identifier and go with Big 12? Naw, that would probably ...

Re: Is the age of the drop-back quarterback over at BYU?

Much of the game is won or lost in the trenches. If your o-line is dominating, you have pass protection and run success. Therefore, you score often, most of the time in TDs. :) If your front-7 is doing well, then you give the opposing offense plenty of pressure and run failure. It leads to pass prot...

Re: Is the age of the drop-back quarterback over at BYU?

I'm surprised by some of the posts here. By "drop back passer" do you mean someone like Tom Brady?-- a stiff with great passing ability? BYU hasn't had a successful one of those since Giff Nelson. All great BYU QBs in the last 30ish years have had the ability to improvise on the run with ...

Re: It is Official - BYU Being Pushed To Join BEAST WEST

Just got scoop that BYU did meet with Big East in person. I know where and who, but was told not to post those specifics. So, yes, the talks are serious. I honestly do not know what to think about it, either. We already have both BSU and Houston on future schedules, and the other western schools in...

Re: Better Situation for BYU?

People, come on. Think about it! If we're in the Big Least, we'll pay tons in travel costs. If we're in the Big 12, it's a lot closer. When considering this, you don't just look at the winnability (is that a word?) of conference games, but also costs. And, after a while, we'll get better to the poin...

SWEET!!!!

That makes me happy. It shows that he's determined, he's not a crybaby who wants the center of attention, and he's willing to work for what he loves.

TAKE THAT, NAY-SAYERS!!!!
