I'll believe it when it is a done deal. No need believing a twitter knows best. He also wrote that Boise State and Oregon would play each other for the BCS NC game. Contracts have to be signed for it to have any merit by both parties.

Once they accept us we can stay in the WAC, move to the MWC or go Independent in football. What is the best thing for UH to do and the most profitable?
