Around SBN: Jerry Sandusky's Wife Tries To Run A Reporter Over

Deseret News: USC trustees informed P10 has invited Utah

You can add this to the growing list of evidence that suggests Utah is Pac-Ten bound. The Deseret News is reporting today the USC trustees were told by the Pacific Ten of their intentions to invite Utah for the 2011 (it seems) season. 

A Southern California source said at USC's trustees meeting Tuesday, they were told that the Pac-10 had authorized the negotiation of an offer to Utah. Everything is solid from the conference's standpoint and was subject only to Utah's agreement on terms.

So, as mentioned in the article, Utah to the conference seems like a formality now and I highly doubt the University is going to vote against leaving the Mountain West (if they haven't voted already).

Well??

You say that you are a Research University right? I hope you will try to clear some of the brain fry that came with that 50/50 and find reality. Welcome to the Pac-10!!! Look forward to playing you in the future. It won’t be much of a game for you until we can afford to ditch Dan Hawkins, but we look forward to a new found rivalry once we find our own sense of reality. GO BUFFS!!

cant wait

keeping fingers crossed that this happens in next few days.

i moved here from so-cal 13 years ago and have been an SC fan most of my life, Since i started living here i have really become a huge Ute fan. If this comes to fruition, looks like i will be tossing all my SC gear in the garbage (dunno how well it would sell on ebay with all the trouble they are in). Kinda wish that the Y were going with us so we could have the rivalry game at end of season, but you know this is a whathaveyoudoneformelately society and cant keep livin off of some 26 yr old psuedo nat’l championship. Maybe the y can replace the rivalry game with them donkeys from Boise….good luck with that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I don't think the pac 10 has any problem with religion or religious people

Only religious affiliation within a University, because the perception is that there is a world view that is being pushed by such institutions that could get in the way of free thought, expression, and research.

See story at Roll Bama Roll

See it here

and read this:

For the Utes, I say congratulations. Their fans were great in New Orleans last year and from a results perspective no non-BCS conference team has come close to posting the resume they have over the past several years. .

i'll trust you meanbob b/c i was banned there. it was nice of them to give us some credit where credit is due.

I'm all about covering the spread and moneylines. Craig Thompson just might end up being a savvy guy. Hell is just a word, the reality is much much worse." Event Horizon". Now remember, when things look bad and it looks like you're not gonna make it, then you gotta get mean, I mean plumb, mad dog mean. cause if you lose your head and you give up then you neither live or win. That's just the way it is. "The Outlaw Josey Wales". To protect the sheep you gotta catch the wolf, and it takes a wolf to catch a wolf. "Training Day". Rashad will beat Rua b/c it's a bad matchup for him. 2/1 odds. Josh Koscheck will dethrone Gsp and win the welterweight title. 2.9/1 odds on that too. Peace.

We're in, no qestion

Check it out:

Asked if it was his understanding that an invitation had been extended to Utah to join the Pac-10, Thompson said, “I don’t know. I just need to defer all comments.”

If that doesn’t scream, “Yeah, they’re gone” I don’t know what does.

Welcome to Pac-10

Always liked your team and I am sure the Utes will be a great addition to the Pac-10

Welcome to the Pac-10

As a USC Student and Ute fan I have a personal dilemma but, that aside, I am Pumped to head over to the Rose Bowl to watch the UTEs teach those bRUINs a thing or two about football.
