This guy is a donkey. UCONN already spends B12 money on athletics and has more national championships than most of the schools in the conference. Stop it.

Most?

Not yet, but they're adding Cincinnati, UCF, and Houston, so they're well on their way.

Arguably you could also say they're well on their way to becoming the big east

The PAC is hemorrhaging and the ACC is probably stable solely due to the GOR based on publicly whiny members. The B12 is a standard deviation ahead of the AAC.

High standard deviation or low? And by what metrics are you referring to?

You mean the last additions of the OBE worth a damn?

Annual media revenue? The fact that any AAC school the B12 wants, the B12 takes?

The big 12 doesn't need 2 schools from Arizona. So you take the one with a contending basketball team and then get the best basketball team, a rebounding football program and the greatest market reach. That would be us.

BREAKING: Nothing becomes official until the #Pac12 gets their TV deal finalized, but now multiple sources tell us tonight that the #Buffs and #BearDown will move to the #Big12. No word on the #Utes and #SunDevils, but Yormark may just take two and save some spots for #ACC teams.

So the Big12 takes 2 from the PAC that helps their TV partners so they can put in a lowball offer, if they decide to, on the conference that's still without a TV contract ? Where have we seen that before ?

I don’t care how they write it, as long as we get the BIG12 invite!

I think the underlying message was nothing happens until PAC 12 gets its media deal.
Big12 doesn’t want to be seen as interfering with that process or open itself up to lawsuit.
Behind scenes, things are definitely happening which means everyone is hedging. No PAC 12 school would leave until they have a number for the media deal. Even Colorado.

We need a new thread for the PAC 12 media deal news. Unfortunately, that seems to be dragging on for months.

 

[uconnric]

How can the Pac 12 get a media deal with half of what's left of the conference wanting to move? Nobody will give them a tv contract with all the chatter of teams leaving.

The Outkick article is just restating Swain's tweet and doesn't offer new sourcing or information.

As we know, Swain is hardly reliable so this article shouldn't be considered reliable either.

BREAKING: A retired media member from Denver, who became a friend of ours when the #Pac12 began having their existential crisis, says this CU board meeting tomorrow is the "beginning of the end" for their P12 membership, "This comes from a former board member and a done deal."

From everything pouring in today, Arizona should be right behind Colorado in joining the #Big12, but that may be it. Don't be surprised if it is, as #UConn and #SDSU also a TON of buzz today!! #Buffs #BearDown

 

[FfldCntyFan]

This is very good for us (assuming Utah is not planning on moving to tg he B-12). We need an odd number of P-12 schools to join. If the state of Arizona is zero or two, Colorado and UConn works.

 

[uconnyankee]

I would think UConn is ahead of SD state too.
Heck, they may actually have two conferences looking at them too, PAC 12 and Big 12

 

[ScottVib]

I could see Colorado, Arizona, UConn & SDSU as a quartet if... both UConn and SDSU have been approved as pro-rata additions from both ESPN and Fox (it's still a shared content deal).

That would fulfill the early statements that indicated a goal of 4 in Eastern time (UConn, WVU, Cincy, UCF) and 4 west of the rockies (Colorado, Arizona, BYU, SDSU)

Of course that is different from this post:

To be clear only SDSU is Pacific Time. The other 3 are all Mountain time and Arizona is only Mountain Standard Time, they do not observe daylight savings.
