New York Post: Gonzaga in talks to join Big 12 in what would be major

college basketball shake-up. “Such a move would send shockwaves across the college basketball landscape. Gonzaga, which has been the dominant team in the WCC for years, has more recently emerged as a national powerhouse. The Zags reached the national championship game in 2017 and 2021. They would be joining a conference with significantly more revenue that also saw members Baylor and Kansas win the past two national titles.” Major conference realignment news being reported in every major newspaper in the country. I personally think that Gonzaga would be a much better fit in the Big East. Some podcasters are reporting that the networks (Fox & ESPN) wanted Big 12 Commissioner Yormark to talk to athletic director Chris Standiford about possible membership. It still seems like a long shot at best. ** Edited by WBGV at 11/2/2022, 8:49:29 PM

ACC needs to add WVU and Cincinnati

On a scale of 1-10. I'm a 5 on adding WVU and UC.

Would love to see the ACC add Cincy, WVU and to

Maybe ESPN could make it happen. But why would they?
33laszlo99 11/04/22 10:01 PM ET
I'd like this, too. And some B12 teams to the PAC, too.

So, if we somehow boot Duke out of the ACC ...

Given that UCF is scheduled to join the Big XII next year, if Gonzaga also
VTHokie2000 11/02/22 10:10 PM ET
Would WVU still want to sit in a Conference like that?
HOO86 11/03/22 09:58 AM ET
Yes, if the Big XII is still the best option for them.**

Travel would be a nightmare, and what about Gonzaga’s other sports.
WBGV 11/02/22 10:51 PM ET
Here's a link to Gonzaga's athletic website. I think Gonzaga can move most

If the Pac-12 implodes and the Big 12 takes WSU and OSU it could work.**

Mercury 11/03/22 08:29 AM ET
Now that Fox has B12 basketball, they might be the one pushing this idea.

I find this rumor particularly interesting
