mugtang Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Hey everybody. Now that we are through basketball season I wanted to discuss the future of this board. Obviously keeping it as the Pac12 board doesn't make any sense considering the Pac-12 exists in name only and it's unclear what OSU & WSU are going to do? I'm still leaning toward them doing a reverse merger with the MWC but that's TBD. What I am leaning towards is rebranding this site to encompass all west coast based schools as it will give you a familiar place to discuss your games, schools, etc. It would also become a sort of an alternate to the MWCBoard as the new owner has let it go to shit. I'm open to suggestions though and would appreciate any input. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastCoastFan Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 Is there a Big-12 board? If not, could this board cover that, with invites to all schools, as well as the Pac-2? That might generate more interest than folllowing San Jose St, Hawaii, New Mexico, Utah State, etc. for just one sport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mano Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 I would be good with a Western college sports forums, perhaps with sub boards for MWC, Big 12, B1G, ACC and Pac 2. Would be nice to have more users, has pretty much felt like a morgue since the Pac fell apart. Will likely be some chaos to start, but seems like an opportunity. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrBug708 Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 Some of us are on our third version posting together so I suspect we are cool with whatever we end up doing. We were posting on the ESPN message boards in 2000 and here we all are still, all be it just in small quantities 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully that would get some new traffic too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glduck Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 I think the name Pac-2/B1G/Big12/ACC Board rolls right off the tongue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a cool idea, and similar to what @mugtang proposed. I'm in favor of either. I like the group we have here (mostly), so keeping us all intact would be cool. I'll certainly continue to follow duck, husky, and other former pac-12 schools regardless. Plus I have a feeling we'll all be back in the same conference again before trump's second term (and the destruction of democracy) ends.

There isn’t really a good Big12 or even B1G forum that I could find. Maybe this would give a place for those fans that want to discuss more than just their preferred team/school.

Quack 12 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 I'd love to see this board stick around in some form or another. I feel like it needs a clever name to draw more attention from all of us displaced fans. Let's put our heads together, kids! How 'bout Pac-12 Zombies?

All I know is I won't ever be posting on any board with you on it going forward. I hate all B10 fans. They are rude and classless. Especially Oregon fans. Consider this my walking papers if you stay on this board. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That way he can stop all the unfair treatment of him and racial slander. Nobody knows college athletics better than that guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
