I think the SEC would rather have Kansas than OSU, and the Big Ten would rather have Miami than DukeThe most obvious swap I see would be Okie St staysin Big 12 and VT goes to SEC.

There’s definitely a basketball contingent that wants to keep the status quo. Sad, but true.What is this "old guard" that wants to stay in the Big East?

That's what i want to know as well. Old Guard? Some of these dudes were not alive when some of us were cheering for Cliff Robinson and Chris Smith.What is this "old guard" that wants to stay in the Big East?
Wonder how strong their Big East allegiance would be if Nova, St Johns and Georgetown took a payday switch to Big 12?Most fans however want this move and there is zero doubt we are going if invited.
Thats just it. If you told them they were moving 1st they'd be screaming UConn "better be included". Why not try leading from in front for once instead of always being reactionary.Wonder how strong their Big East allegiance would be if Nova, St Johns and Georgetown took a payday switch to Big 12?
I think at night they also come out as the flat earth societyThere’s definitely a basketball contingent that wants to keep the status quo. Sad, but true.

BREAKING: Is Yormark going coast to coast in one fell swoop with the #Big12 and grabbing both #UConn and #SDSU before taking #Buffs and #BearDown? That's what some are predicting this morning.

#Pac12 teams are noe fully aware their share is $19.5M each before the Comcast and Holiday Bowl lawsuit reimbursals. To add more mouths to feed dilutes the payout even further, so with additions of #SDSU and #SMU, the P12 annual payout will be roughly one-third of the #Big12.
Seem to back up what was previously said here ..... . Apparently, in the comments, a few people are backing it up. Long story short there are academics on the board who don't want to leave the PAC12 and downgrade to BIG12 regardless of the money and the longer this can gets kicked the closer to the July budget deadline they get. From what I've heard not sure if its true the academic money they get from PAC12 and research far out weighs any sports TV contracts.
I think as of now Colorado will stay. As long as the league gets a TV deal before the July 21st media days, the Buffs will stick around.
The Pac-12 messed up. They are a more valuable property than the Big 12 even with the time zone disadvantage on a fair playing field. However, with the Big 12 getting a deal first, and the TV monies now shrinking, the league is in a hard spot. As much as I would like UConn to join a P5 league, I do think it is very important that we keep five major conferences in football and six major conferences in basketball. It is better for college sports to not be as concentrated as professional sports.I’m just amazed that a media deal is taking this long. Yipes.
