Key tweets, and it's all gone to Hell.

It's hilarious. I agree Colorado with Deion might make a lot of noise, but he'll leave for the SEC the first chance he gets. It blows my mind how they think Arizona has any higher potential in football than we do.

At this level, he's going to have coach well. He's not going to trot out a superior team talent wise relative to his conference opponents.

He’s credible but all his takes are pro PAC even in their darkest hours.

He is a hack and those on twitter have been higlighting each move he got wrong in the last 6 months. He has a so pro Pac administration slant it is ridiculous. Some call him Bagdad Bob.

I disagree that he'll have a lack of talent. I think he will be able to out recruit all the schools in the Big 12. He's already managed to put together a top 25 class in very little time. It still remains to be seen if he has what it takes to coach at a P5 level.

So if none of the Pac 12 schools, including the 2 most valuable brands, UCLA and USC, could hit those benchmarks, then why exactly does the Big 12 even think any of the leftovers are valuable, like at all? This is maddening. If these schools didn't have the P5 moniker attached to them out of sheer luck, they would be on the streets begging.

This time it is Apple though..Apple actually knows how to market it's online services. The other day I could not watch Angels gane cause it was on Apple+. Apple is going some innovative stuff to get more subscribers, and they can get each school to help promote the Apple streaming products.

Partnering with Apple might be a good move for the future. I am hoping it will be good enough for all the PAC schools to sign up so we can be #14.

Who says they think they're valuable?

Uh, the Big 12? Which is why they are trying to poach them?

OK, but how much were UCG, Houston and Cinci "worth" in the American? BYU doesn't announce their ESPN deal, but does anybody think it is even $10M?

The PAC has a time zone problem. They always had a time zone problem. UCS and UCLA are more valuable in the B1G in part because they will be playing on eastern and central time more often. But also because there are just more quality games. The whole PAC has fewer quality games with those two teams gone.

Not a single school in any conference would be "worth" more on its own than it does in conference. Not one.

You are conflating subscribers and viewers. I'm not paying extra $$ for any sports channel. But I sure as heck will watch a lot of teams if their games are free as part of my cable subscription.

The PACN was poorly managed or designed. No one east of the Rockies could watch it, even if you wanted to. it made the PAC situation even worse, because you took schools who said they never got enough attention and made their content unviewable.

I got no inside stuff. Though I could get it i needed to. But, these are decisions made with a ton of information and explored all angles.

For Arizona, they have a fiduciary responsibility to both schools. I am actually thinking they are going to stay in Pac-9, expand if they can. Why not? Add SDSU, SMU and maybe one more.

I still don’t get why Utah would ever leave Pac-12, unless it new wash and Oregon were gone.

I don't think Steinberg has ever had anything good to say when he refers to Uconn. Him and Trammel must be close buddies.

Russ is a UConn fan but based on twitter posts is not in favor of the move to the Big 12.
 
The Oregon/Washington duo will never agree to this so my guess is the P12 is about to blow.
