Message: [QUOTE="bobbyinaz, post: 4487279, member: 3853"] The other thing the B12 offers is long term stability. It's not going to pay them the most money but the schools know where they stand. None of it's members are targets for the SEC or B1G (some may think Kansas is a B1G target but I don't) so they are what they are. Depending on how things shake out with the PAC they may even get to expand. While the new B12 contract is only for 6 years, it is based on the current conference makeup. The ACC contract runs for another 13 years but it's likely that half it's members have at least 1 foot out the door and would be gone in seconds if not for the GOR. And, as you said, the TV money is basically the same. When the smoke clears (and it may not be until the ACC GOR expires) the B12 will likely be the 3rd best conference after the SEC & B1G. Who knows what the ACC will look like. [/QUOTE]
