CU has rejoined the Big 12 and broken college football - talking out asses continues

Air Force won't join a league that plays more than 8 conference games.

They would be paired with Navy so AFA gets one extra OOC game freed up. They could be ok with 9 games in that case.

AFA’s other sports will not join the AAC. WAC or Summit could be that home.

The brass down there really likes where they're at. I doubt they do anything.

And I hope CSU winds up in like the RMAC.

My suggestion is the best for keeping CU as the only A5 school in Colorado. Just imagine what CSU fans will be like if they are in the PAC.
 
I've been mum...
I really made an effort when we changed conference thought it would be cool to line up vs SC & UCLA I believed we could compete...total biff.
Watching SC become the modern day version nebraska...been there and I couldn't revisit the past.
If this makes sense to you then maybe you've arrived at the point you've realized you're not going to get back the last XX years as a fan.
One issue I truly hope will come out of this move back to the B12....CU will add some sports that the state can provide athletes.
Women's Softball
Men's Baseball
Women's Gymnastics
Pick a sport any sport ie..swimming & diving, Hockey, any that will add value to the brand going forward.
Last...2024 Ralphie should make every away game..she'll be hit no matter where she runs.
Retro unis, remind them who we were before...is there a truer "Return to Dominance"?...marketing gold.

I'm hoping for men's lacrosse but if I had to choose from that, I'd go with women's softball.

I love tradition but I think it's time to embrace the future.

**** that. Can we be done trying to constantly pay tribute to the glory days at CU? It was an amazing time for the program but it’s gone. It’s been over 20 years since anything resembling dominance. This is a brand new era in CU football and it doesn’t need to be reminding anyone who we were 20-30 years ago. Nobody gives a ****.

1,000% agree with you...time to let the past go!
 

You need help.
Also anger. But it's kind of like the tail wagging the dog

This is why the P12 failed...they relied on the past in trying to create a rivalry with Utah that never existed...Utah is not nebraska.
I'm sure you realize that the majority of donors (the ones with money) were season ticket holders during the time that you so eloquently...Nobody gives a ****.
 
CSU and Wyoming don't magically become worth $10 million because they are in a new conference.
I don’t necessarily disagree with you here, but this is pretty much what happened to the P12 teams that left.

We were told that the free market said that the P12 was worth $200M annually- $20M each for all 10 schools. Then, CU left and got $31.7M from the B12. ORWA left and got $30M each from B1G (rumored). The rest of the 4C left and each got about $30M annually. Total, that’s ~$180M. Either OSU, WSU, Cal and Stanford are worth $20M combined ( I doubt this) OR the schools who left are worth more as members of a different conference.

If I was 10 years younger I'd be right there with you, call me an old fogie if you want.
I watched more B12 football vs P12 since the move and each year I wondered how the Buffs would fare that season..2-3 bowl games.
I'm good.

I started back in 1989 as a ten year old kid...just a good time to start in that case.

Hiring Coach Prime was a sign that CU was moving on the past imo.

The donor culture at CU has mostly been trash until Prime came through. Donors want to win.

Dude...we wouldn't be in the B12 today without that history...obviously it matters.
I'm going to die laughing when the B1G gets a dose of Cali....great cultural fit pa sha,
