Message: [QUOTE="Huskymagic, post: 4283833, member: 8007"] USC and UCLA cover the entire LA and southern California market. They don't really need SDSU for the San Diego Market. They also don't want competition for recruiting so nearby to them. Arizona and Arizona State are also pretty close to the San Diego area with large followings. The PAC-12 has that area completely secured. From a tv ratings and revenue perspective the PAC-12 already dominates the area. Cal and Stanford have good control over the central part and northern part of California. Not to mention that UCLA and USC have appeal and strong followings all across the state of California particularly USC. Oregon right above California has plenty of fans in northern California as well. PS: Kansas is the best school for PAC-12 to poach right now. They would be smart to call them up. A second team they might look to add would either be a second school in Colorado: Colorado State or Boise State in a growing Idaho. My money would be on Boise State because Idaho is growing fast and Boise St dominates the entire state market there. Strong football and decent basketball. SDSU would be 3rd on the list for the PAC-12 if they weren't actively being blocked by other California schools. PS: For the Big East: Gonzaga and Memphis. [/QUOTE]
