Is the B12 media deal solid? Seems that should have been blown up when the cash cows left.
Maybe they're guessing that the greater demand for CFB in Big 12 country compensates for the loss of branding. However, should they be able to bring over programs from the PAC then there's no more question of their future solidity. Unless ESPN/ACC wants to put their noses in the process.
And more crazy non-key tweets:

I was given Stanford vs Oregon intel. I'll share soon.

To get admitted to becoming a member of the Big Ten, you must have an institutional whole. Meaning, you need to be good at everything - academics, athletics, etc. cont...

The Big Ten looks at 27 categories when evaluating a new member. Oregon scores a positive rating in 4 out of the 27 categories and those 4 are: R1, AAU, football team talent points, basketball program ranking the last decade. cont..

Oregon's acceptance rate is a major red flag for the Big Ten, small enrollment compared to other Big Ten members, and more. Out of the 27 categories, Oregon scores poorly in 15 categories. Stanford scores a positive rating in 25 out of the 27 categories. cont..

Oregon would, by far, have the fewest athletes. The Big Ten is very big on providing a lot of opportunities for college athletes - the total number of sports sponsored. Stanford scores better in the fan category than 4 current members of the Big Ten.cont..

I don't like it, but I get it. If it was up to me Oregon and Washington would already have their invites, but I'm not in charge of this. School presidents hold the votes.

Are you saying Stanford has higher TV ratings? The academic stuff, sure. But Oregon has much higher tv ratings.

whatever data they use for viewer rating, Stanford scores higher. I don't know the data they use and wouldn't be allowed to know even if I asked.

For comparison, Rutgers scores positively in 14 out of the 27 categories. Compare that to what I listed for Oregon and you start to learn why Oregon to the Big Ten is an extreme long shot.

The ranking among Pac 12 schools among Big Ten presidents for their remaining members are (in order): Stanford, Washington, Cal, Utah, Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado, Oregon, Washington State, Oregon State.

What I find extremely interesting is the rating score USC is getting vs Stanford. Stanford is clearly number 1, but USC would rank 2 in the Big Ten and not that far behind Stanford.
The negotiations, thus, are with Stanford and Notre Dame and nobody else.

I’m guessing ND scores pretty high up there too???
college football fan@Genetics56 · 3h
Yes, very high.

Stanford is rated to have a higher viewer rating than Oregon. Population kills Oregon and Stanford gets a very high rating.
Takeaway: Stanford vs Oregon when they complete the categorical scoring, Oregon is rated very poorly and Stanford rates higher than every Big Ten school.

So you're saying Cal would be accepted before Oregon or Washington?
college football fan@Genetics56 · 3h
Yes. Cal vs Washington is pretty close. Both are viewed as institutional fits.

For those asking about Kansas, Kansas ranks good in 15 categories and extremely poor in 6 categories. The acceptance rate for Kansas is a killer. Very negative rating. They rank negative in all football-related categories and rank 3 overall in basketball.

Miami rates a lot higher among Big Ten presidents than anyone would imagine. I'll post the ACC numbers sometime tomorrow. Gotta go to bed.

Might B12 soon be playing 10 conference games, 2 out of conference, and completely stop scheduling 1AA? It’s being discussed.
MH ver3@MH ver3 · 6h
10 conference games would be 12 extra games of inventory to sell. No 1AA opponents means the quality of the non-conference games would be better as well.

Again, it’s being discussed. Nothing set in stone.
