Jason Scheer, AZ reporter that has been very accurate with his reporting, indicating he's very confident AZ will say yes but that next week will be quiet as there are lots of details to be ironed out.

Regardless of what happens, UConn will get to the promised land. For those who missed it, this video from last year outlined exactly what UConn brings to the table (it's impressive) and what it where it should focus. Best analysis of UConn I've seen to date.

As you will note, many "to dos" are being methodically addressed.... so keep the faith!

This is an interview with Brett McMurphy. He says that ESPN by contract has to pay pro rata for up to four schools. Fox is not required by contract to pay for any additions, but they have verbally agreed to pay for up to two additions. The Big 12 would have to get an answer from Fox that they would pay for four additions.

(Note: This is what GoKU said. The Big 12 is waiting to hear from Fox).

Another week in the books. Try not to drown in the shallow water :)



That time I was in Brekstad, Norway walking down a street and a bar was closed but owner was there doing some work, invited me in for a beer and his laptop had on You Tube and some Johm Prine.

I’m watching John Wick 4 and I can’t help but think of these conferences as the High Table. If we don’t get out seat, we need to channel our inner John Wick. Burn it all down.

Is that the vibe you're getting around here? Popping champagne? lmao
I was responding to those responding to GoKU. Look at the timeline of my post and theirs. The best outcome for us if the rest of the PAC stays together.
Although I do respect the A-Team

Here’s what we do know — the XII DID NOT have a completed plan to take us if CO left the PAC and joined. Because if it did, we would have been invited and accepted by now.

No one knows what will happen next, but the most common hypothesis for how we were going to get in is DOA.
Correct. If rumors are to believed, we need to wait for Fox to approve going to 16 members. Then we need to hope no one beats us out for spot 16. It’s quite a tangled web with no guarantees.

Yormark’s desire for New York exposure is the key for us. I hope he’s really married to the concept and is able to support his case when explaining why it matters.

Pretty much. I think everyone was so hinged on Colorado moving or not moving, when that started to unfold, it got exciting. Of course nothing goes as expected except the end which we all sadly can expect.

I think we all have different ways of dealing with letdown and frustration.
