Troy Nunes Is An Absolute Podcast: Conference Realignment-Palooza

There's some rustling going on with regard to realignment. So we go ahead and laugh about it.

By John Cassillo and Dan Lyons

There are some things going on with Syracuse Orange sports. But more for our typical purposes -- talking about random nonsense -- conference realignment seems to be a topic worth diving into a whole lot more.

In this week's episode, John Cassillo and Dan Lyons start out talking about Orange lacrosse, then make a bunch of realignment jokes for around 45 minutes, and drift into beer too. Some of the larger talking points:

  • Dan gets a confusing, startling introduction to the Pioneer League
  • The tradition of Syracuse lacrosse's winning hurts its fans... so we should just deal with it
  • West Virginia holds a lot of the Big 12's expansion cards...
  • ... and also stops it from adding the best possible programs
  • Making the case for UC-Davis or UC-Irvine as long-term MWC expansion options
  • Congrats, Cincinnati. We think you're the most likely team to join the Big 12!
  • Want more beer? Follow John and Dan on Untappd!

Plan accordingly: This podcast runs just over an hour. We chat a bunch about Syracuse lacrosse, make light of conference realignment and of course, discuss beer.
