Message: [QUOTE="CL82, post: 4626033, member: 44"] Agreed. It’s amazing how the balance of power flips around. If ESPN doesn’t bail out the big 12 by creating, the Longhorn Network, Kansas, and a couple other schools, or ready to head to the Big East. If that happened, the big east becomes stabilized, remains a all sport, but basketball centric conference, and the C7 would not have had the votes to leave. Going back even further, if we get one more vote for the admission of Penn State, we probably end up, picking up Maryland in the Big East and have a solid football/basketball conference. Heck, if Villanova had decided to upgrade their football program, the C7 wouldn’t have had the votes to leave. I am inclined to believe that the P5 becomes the P3, or more accurately the P2 +1. Right now, it looks like that would be the Big Ten in the SEC with the big 12 being a weak sister to the other two. The PAC and the ACC look like they will eventually get relegated. But that’s what the landscape looks like today. It could flip in a heartbeat. [/QUOTE]
