[QUOTE="airspace, post: 947890, member: 6375"] Going back to 2010, Harvey Pearleman (then President of Nebraska before they were in the Big 10) made the statement in an interview (when how many teams in a conference), stated that he had seen models with as many as 24 to 27 schools. It was that comment and one made by Delaney that gave me the idea the Big 10 even back then was thinking national (centered around AAU, large research universities and state flagship schools). There is a rumor on the west coast that Oregon and Washington are going to announce on Memorial day (there abouts) they are going to the Big 10. True or not, don't know. If one remembers, USC and UCLA announced when they did to avoid fees upon leaving by giving a years notice. Could this be what Oregon and Washington are doing if they are leaving (again don't know). The 4 corner schools are on the cusp of leaving. I believe Georgia Tech will be fine when all is said and done. You are AAU, in a large metro area, large research institution and have been on the Big 10's list previously as a desired school. I believe it is in your institutions best interest to reach out to either the Big 10 or SEC as well as make the necessary change within your athletic department to make yourselves more attractive.
