You guys think the tail wags the dog at these schools. It doesn't. The Pac 10 is not the SEC. The powers that be love to eat their titanic coaches for breakfast. They'd love to abolish DI sports. They love it when their teams lose and no one comes. Hell, LA doesn't even have a pro football team anymore. I know it's hard for y'all to understand, but football or basketball isn't the center of the universe at Pac 10 schools. It's the flea on the dog. This isn't even close. BYu is as out of the question as Fresno State. Probably what's most likely is Utah and Colorado.

Colorado is ranked 79th, meaning it is behind BYU, in US News rankings.
http://colleges.usnews.rankingsandre...udoc_brief.php Colorado is not particularly respected as an academic institution, IMO. Here's CU's take: http://www.colorado.edu/news/facts/campus/rankings.html Maybe Lebowski could weigh in. Pac-10 would want U. of Texas, but wouldnt' be able to get thelm. |

Cal 21 UCLA 25 USC 27 UW 42 Arizona 96 Oregon 112 WSU 118 ASU 124 Oregon State (3rd Tier) BYU at 79 would be 6th best in the Pac 12th. Utah would be tied for last with Oregon State. |

It's this ranking:
http://mup.asu.edu/research2006.pdf And lack of academic freedom (if a professor questions the LDS Church's rather large claims he gets fired) and crazy beliefs such as gays going to hell. The LDS Church announcing support for an anti-gay-rights constitutional amendment didn't help.
