Realignment

[Jon Rycek]

Uc is never getting into a p5. Ship has sailed... probably shouldn’t even bring that up.

Ship has far from sailed especially after making another BCS game and being THAT close to a playoff birth in football this year. I’m beginning to think you don’t even like UC

You’re insane. You also comment on posts from like a week ago. Unlike you I actually live in the real world and not some fantasy land. I like how you said THAT close... we weren’t even 5th or 6th choice behind schools with multiple losses. Lol

I love uc. Not mick Cronin and his west side trash family. UCLA has a board waiting for you to comment on.

I love Cincinnati, talks trash about entire half the city. You sound like a little pathetic punk. And I commented on a post from a week ago cause I’m not on here 24/7 you know, life n all

You’re probably a little bitch just like him.

Every single article I've seen that lists out the top G5 schools for P5 conference expanstion has us at #1. I'm pretty sure I've read well over dozen written by different publications at this point.

And this isn't exactly a new thing either. We've been at or near the tops of those lists for years now.

Obviously are football program has a lot to do with this, but so much else does too. Our market size, location for travel, location to build recruiting pipelines, our b-ball history, etc.

Not only does it seem that everyone thinks we should be target 1A to add, it seems everyone agrees expansion is destined happen at some point. Be it by mega-conferences (16 deep), reshuffling (West Virginia to ACC), or kicking programs (Rutgers) out and adding new ones (Cincinnati).

If you think it's a fantasy that UC has a legitimate shot at joining a P5 then I think you're talking out of your ass.

If you're "lol" at the fact we were only 8th ranked in the BCS polls to close the year then I really have to question if you really do love UC. (You obviously don't)

The lol was at the fact that dumbasses actually believe we would have made the playoffs and there is some p5 invite waiting out there for us. You a moron like that other guy who can’t reason?

I’m gonna agree with you this time lol. I’d love to see a list of non power five schools that have better chances than we do. It certainly wouldn’t be more than 1-2 teams

Maybe you should evaluate what you’re reading. If uc were to get in a better conference that would be a great day. As it stands we add nothing, the big 12 came to this conclusion. The acc picked Louisville. The big 10 will never let us in. Sec... maybe, but ky is pretty close.

Do you really believe conferences will kick out members?

Where did anyone say we would have made the playoffs? I'm pretty sure we all knew the writing was on the wall when they first came out and had A&M and Florida over us.

A P5 conference is definitely a possiblity for UC in the future. Is it guaranteed to happen? Of course not. But we have as strong a chance as any of G5 out there.

With conferences tv deals due to expire, and the constantly reshuffling we see every few years, only an idiot wouldn't at least consider the possibility of us joining one again. (Key word: Again. You do know we already were in a P5, right?)

PS The name calling and personal shots are totally unnecessary.

Okay I’m done but as you see literally every article I found that mentions teams by name not only included Cincinnati but named them as the most likely. Such a pipe dream huh lmao

Your boy Jon r is big with the name calling, it trickled over.

I understand we joined a power conference that quickly realized it was the most fragile of them all. In that time all the other notable schools were poached other than UConn. Why not us? What has changed since then? Didn’t we finish the regular season #3 and still couldn’t get an invite?

Why is now different?

ACC has another open spot to get to 16, bug 12 said they wouldn’t be adding any at the moment, not ever. And why wouldn’t the SEC want to add the recruiting ground of Ohio to their conference? We are the 4/5 best highschool football state in the country. And we would make a great geographical rival for UK. I think OSU will do whatever they can to keep us out of the Big Ten but the rest could easily overrule them it would help cut some of Ohio Sts in state recruiting ability.

I called you a name cause you trashed the man who brought our program back to relevance and an entire half of the city. Well deserved

Don’t you think ky feels the same about us as osu. Ky basketball already has permeated the cincy area.

 

[Jon Rycek]

I don’t see how you think we add nothing, we are a top ten basketball program of all time, we are a top ten football team at this very moment, and I guarantee you Fickell doesn’t go anywhere if we get an invite into a power 5 in 2 years

Again, that’s one school, I’m pretty sure it works on a majority rules. And you don’t think they would love a rivalry like that? A game a little over an hour away, they only have one other school that’s even close to them

Then why didn’t the acc take us? Why didn’t the big 12? Your argument doesn’t make sense. We may be the best of the g5 but what about uc will get us the invite? Do we add that many dollars? What drives the expansion?

Why do we always come up on top of the list?
