I, Conroy, am still alive. Though doubtful you noticed, I’ve been sporadic in the last couple weeks as my move to Cape Cod has been forged without IP addresses. Since when is the internet not a necessity like hot water and electricity at rental properties?
Conference expansion talk is once again king, though not all centered around the Big 10. New York Times star college sports reporter/crusher of dishonest souls/friend of the Fizz Pete Thamel has been postulation about the possibilities involving the Pac-10, which kickstarted expansion talk this week.
The most significant news came from the Pac-10 meetings, where presidents voted to give the first-year commissioner Larry Scott authority to move ahead with expansion. With the Pac-10 seriously considering a move to 16 teams, the conference essentially gave Scott permission to hand out invitations to potential new members without consulting its university presidents.
