[QUOTE="Winter Tim, post: 129446400, member: 1772878"] I saw no reason to expand... but I honestly don't think other conferences are going to stand for the us to get by without a chance to add 1 more loss to one of our top conference teams. I am torn between "choose 2 best football schools" and "choose 2 schools that even out the map -- and maybe add basketball strength." As far as new conference mates that WVU fans can attend, I know we travel well for close-by games (Blacksburg, College Park, Pittsburgh). Also, transplants in NC show up in Charlotte and Greenville. Central Florida, UConn, etc. do not help in that regard. Where the Big 12 dropped the ball - helping themselves and us - was not bringing in WVU and Louisville at same time. With what is left out there... I am mostly okay with Cincinnati and Memphis. I am tempted to say we should BYU and Boise. That would be 2 nice football additions... but would really make WVU and outlier... not to mention adding another time zone. However, I would almost go BYU and Boise... just as easily as Memphis and Cincy. [/QUOTE]
