Luck heard Air Force and Navy are coming to the Big East and wants back in?

They're simply acting like they're in the Big XII.

Could be embarrassing if they're still playing in the BE 2 years from now.

For those of us blocked by firewalls, what (if anything) did it say?

Thanks, 690. That was enough to make you gag. Given the BE stance on leaving, I am reminded of the immortal words of Mr. Wolf in Pulp Fiction - "Well, let's not start..."

How ironic would it be if the BE did somehow make WVU stay 2 more years and then by the time WVU did get to the B12 there was no more Texas. No more Oklahoma. No more Oklahoma St. And the B12 had raided the BE again and gotten SMU, Houston etc to move to the B12 to replace those schools. WVU may as well have stayed in the BE.

What are the chances of a child having been conceived at this press conference? They say you can't get pregnant from oral sex, but if it is one iota possible, this WVU-Big 12 orgy might just find a way...

Basically it was WVU servicing the B12 with a very public "reach around"

That's about it.

I'm glad we were part of a simple Sunday morning conference call to seal or deal with the ACC. Maybe there was some confetti thrown around, but I didn't hear any (again, a conference call).
