Apparently our basketball coach is one happy camper. “We added two great things to the conference today,” said Gaucho men’s basketball coach Bob Williams. “We’ve extended our footprint to the great Northwest with the addition of Boise State’s national brand, and we’ve developed a scheduling partnership with the Big East. This is a banner day for the Big West Conference.” In fact, all of the sports not named volleyball or softball have to be thrilled. Baseball and men's soccer will avoid the hassle of traveling to Boise too, so I guess that's a good thing. Great, maybe SMU or Houston will come to the Bren, Thunderdump, Matadump, Titan Gym, Pyradump, etc. it's a good thing to get out and explore the country once in a while. those Southern boys need a trip West of St. Louis now and then

Wow, competence on display. The Big West took something that should have been a weekend decision and managed to turn it into pregnancy and labor.

so now what? stay put at 11 or go for a Seattle/Denver/Fresno as member #12?? I hope it's go for a Seattle or Denver to expand the media market either into the Rockies or the Pacific Northwest. Would asking the conference to go down to ten by getting rid of Northridge make me arrogant? ..Sent from my Samsung GS3..

Just asking, because I have no idea.

Just asking, because I have no idea. Can't be any less than the amount of people in LA care about CSUN. Or people in the IE who care about Riverside.

No one has answered my question. Can LBSU beat Boise on the road? yes. They still have Caffey. They still have Ennis. I know they lost everyone else but Long Beach should have the players to step up and win in potato country

Fat Tire > Arrogant bastard. Sam Adams > arrogant bastard HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Nothing at all wrong with Fat Tire or anything made by New Belgium Brewery BTW. However, Sam Adams is a pseudo microbrewery. And as somebody said above, Blue Moon is about as hearty as Coors. Good on the Big Lots for getting more dinero out of Boise. The only problem I see is that Boise is probably already looking to leave once the BE stops subsidizing them to subsidize the great majority of the BLC. And you have to think that one option is creation of a new Olympics conference . . .

you are once again talking about things you don't understand. Listen child, Fat Tire > Arrogant bastard. Sam Adams > arrogant bastard and those are 2nd tier beers. Enjoy your piss water while tailgating at the Murph, before watching your sorry football team get killed in the new MWC. Hmmm. Uh, yes New Belgium is better than Stone, IMO. But Stone is definitely better than Sam Adams. Stone is fine, but New Belgium makes some insanely good beers, most are much better than their cash cow, Fat Tire (which is still good, don't get me wrong).

How about we celebrate with a toast to And say it all together: "BeefEater was right!" Bet it took a long time to come up with that Fullerton logo. At least ten minutes. Right about what? Boise paying more than Hawaii will do? Yeah, you really went out on a limb there.

Boise paying more than Hawaii will do? Yeah, you really went out on a limb there. Right that the BWC should play hardball with Boise. Right that the BWC wants to improve. Hey, when I first started posting here, I couldn't even get people to agree that the BWC wants to improve. That's how ignorant some of you were at the time. And then, when the BWC didn't immediately admit Boise, there was all sorts of anguish over that. And, yet, look how it all turned out in the end. Do you think, now, looking back, the BWC should have just rolled over and admitted Boise? remember this? aztecskillinghim.com/2012/05/15/sdsu-sends-very-subtle-message-to-big-west-25/You guys thought this was so HILARIOUS because it basically stated what you believed to be the truth. That Boise and SDSU should and would roll over the BWC in negotiations. Turned out to NOT be the case. That's basically it. Ultimately, it was a win-win-win.

Gee. What will the MW do now that it has lost this prominent, dominant program to the mighty Big West? Bet those Bronco lips are pretty tired right about now. This definitely has to be one of the prouder moments in the annals of Boise State Athletics..

You actually think this proves the Big Lots wants to improve? It doesn't prove anything more than that BLC schools wanted to squeeze every possible dime out of the Bluefields so they can be guaranteed of balancing their athletics budget for the next decade. Gotta add this. Maybe because I attended CSUN for a couple years I feel a bit defensive of them. However, UCR deserves at least as much scorn. When the mofo hell has UCR ever beaten UCLA at Pauley or gotten to the NCAAs? Northridge has done both, plus getting to the Big Lots men's hoops final several times. So attention those who are bagging on the Matadors: If the only thing about BLC membership that matter is men's basketball, CSUN isn't close to the steaming turd that UCR is.

So attention those who are bagging on the Matadors: If the only thing about BLC membership that matter is men's basketball, CSUN isn't close to the steaming turd that UCR is. Let's see CSN D1 since 91. UCR D1 since about 2000. CSN didn't have a winning record in the BW until 3-5 years into the BW. Then add all of CSN's thugs, suspensions, and low RPI, yep that's a great school representing the BW. There was mismanagement at UCR when Stan Moronson was their AD and hired his buddy as MBB coach and letting go of their long time coach. The cronyism hire not only turned out badly, they pissed off many long time fans. But, to UCR's credit, their current admin. is the ONLY BW school working, instead of talking, on getting funding for a new arena. Some kind of new program, that allows foreign investors to can US citizenship in exchange to providing new jobs to an area. Go to the Riverside paper and do a search.
