I mean I get it, Gonzaga has certainly stayed in the WCC forever and dominated.......................
Similar to UConn they have no football to be desirable to any conference. Gonzaga's location also kills them otherwise theyd be perfect for the Big East
True!

Both were being considered for the BIG12 until they landed all those PAC12 teams...........

Haven’t heard anything but if the Timmns reno happens I assume the women will play in the PAC?
if they re-purposed ome of the Timms wooden pullout bleechers to alley to get abt 1000 peeps it would be perfect for the ladies and could stay for VB in the future

Great point!

Richey actually made a recent comment how much he likes the light show they have at USC football games, so he is aware of it's impact ;)

Not unless the PAC gets a major reno. Alley for sure probably
Pretty sure Alley gym has no seating and would be too small. The PAC has seating for 500-1000 but its been a while since I have been in there. Remember years ago the mens team played a few games there maybe while Timmons was being built?

I’m not aware of any seating in the PAC after the renovations in the early 2000s. Alley website says it seats 500 and a picture shows the basketball goals still present and raised to the ceiling. As long as they can bring over the Timmons floor the Alley seems like the best option. There’s a slight overlap in seasons but scheduling away games to start the season shouldn’t be an issue.

I stand corrected. Been a long time since I have been in either building, Looks like seats were added to Alley in the 2018 renovation for volleyball. Are the basketball courts still in the PAC?

Alley has pull out seating, the PAC has no seating, just a big court that could have two side to side or one big court. There's no college three point line, its a temporary tape line that marks the college three right now. Also the floor quality is low
