Either the WAC going to 16 teams or the B1G adding Rutgers.

Suwanee leaving the SEC?

Tech leaving the SEC?  Teams just left back then I reckon, and Tech had a few good years afterward.  Utah is an interesting case I think, pretty nice step up and now positioned for another perhaps.

The Big East turning down PSU by one vote.

Yeah, the Big East had a decent conference, a patchwork at times, but some great teams obviously.

Anybody got a timeline on Chris Mullin's transformation?  He went from floppy longish dark hair at St. John's to a blonde-white flat-top at Golden State.  Those are the only 2 images I know of him.  When did he transition?

Although the WAC-16 was ultimately a disaster for the WAC conference itself,  all 16 teams today that were part of the WAC-16,  are still in FBS conferences in 2023.

PAC - Utah
Big12 - BYU, TCU
MWC - NM, CSU, AFA, Wy, UNLV, FresnoSt,  SJSU, SDSU
MWC/Big West - Hawaii
AAC - Tulsa, SMU, Rice
CUSA - UTEP

The current MWC really feels like more of the successor to the WAC-16,  with 8.5 of the former 16 schools from the WAC-16 now in the MWC.    The only member of the WAC-16 that really got screwed in the long run I would say was UTEP

Now later on, schools like Idaho and NMSU, that joined the WAC after the WAC-16 split up,  ended up being screwed after the WAC completely fell apart, but that all came later.

Oh yeah, I can't imagine USC or UCLA would have allowed a leak to the Rose Bowl folks if they could help  it.

I thought about that too. I'd say the Rose Bowl is now dead.

It's just another bowl now.  I'm surprised anyone would think USC/UCLA should alert the governor or the RB or the press about this move.
