Read a post on here today from
@ScottyBuff that has led me to change my mind on this-I think the logical sport for us to add (if I had to pick one on the men's side) isn't either of these two-Its hockey. Sure its a winter sport, but it wouldn't be that hard to get a Pac 12 hockey conference going. Arizona State competes in it as an independent, we start a program, get a couple other conference schools (say Stanford, USC, Washington, and Oregon) just for conversation's sake, and then there are 5-6 affiliate members who would probably jump at this idea-DU, CC, and AFA would all make sense. If a couple of the NW schools take the plunge, it probably wouldn't be that hard to talk the two Alaska schools into joining this-they'd make great targets for this either way-Phoenix, AZ and Boulder, CO are a lot closer to Fairbanks and Anchorage than Huntsville, AL and Bowling Green, OH are (two of their conference mates right now). Talk North Dakota into this (they've got a great hockey rivalry with DU from what I know) and you've probably got something. A hypothetical hockey program would probably be something we could put at the 1stbank center. I know this conversation has come up, but I've heard parking can be a problem there. Still, I don't think they use it for anything other than concerts.......it would probably be a win-win.
