Message: [QUOTE="CAtlantic, post: 4348180, member: 11388"] MH ver3@MH ver3 · 34m Pac12(-2) schools showing solidarity today does not mean all is well. There are still 3 schools wanting to jump to B12 now, 1 school playing both sides, and 2 schools that pine for B1G. They are all trying to get the most money possible out of this renegotiated deal. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 35m But no movement will be made until the final numbers of the new tv deal become completely clear. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 32m The 3 that want to jump to B12 are fed up with PAC leadership. One feels they were sold a false bill of goods when they joined. The other two have been flirting with B12 for years and few they are a better fit with B12 in culture and philosophy. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 19m Let me lay a scenario out to you all that is a real possibility but no one is talking about. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 18m AZ, AZST, and Colorado join the B12. Utah, OR, WA forge ahead thinking they are positioned for future B1G membership and backfill with 3 MWC schools to keep 10 members and keep the PAC alive but in life support. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 17m There’s just too many cultural differences between the coastal schools and the B12. Political and academic. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 16m And what’s interesting as well is my B1G source is telling me if ND decides to join B1G then Stanford is the desired partner to come with ND and they will stop there for possibly forever. Washington was their next choice. Oregon was the third choice as a ND partner. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 15m TV money just starts to dilute badly at 16 teams and up. Oregon may never have a realistic shot at B1G But also the culture there may never allow them to join a conference with schools in TX, OK, WV, etc. M ver3@MH ver3 · 13m And B12 may just add those 3 and stop and wait to see what happens 5-10 years from now. There’s no reason to add anyone else to dilute the tv money just to have an even number. UCF@ucfeverything·16m Replying to @MH ver3 Any word on Notre Dames possible decision? Last heard they were sticking independent MH ver3@MH ver3 · 9m They are staying Indy for now. Most likely until ACC contract is up at least and then they will reevaluate. Wayman@BWayman25 · 13m Have you heard anything regarding any truth to the rumors that the Big Ten would consider TCU for a beachhead into DFW and Texas? MH ver3@MH ver3 · 8m No. big10 is done until ND decides. Frank the Tank@frankthetank111 UteNation is reporting that the Pac-12 will announce that the remaining schools are sticking together. If true, the translation for this is that the Big Ten isn’t inviting any more Pac-12 schools. college football fan@Genetics56 · 1h Sure...the second Oregon gets an offer from the Big Ten they are gone. Be smarter than this man. Just like the Alliance among three conferences only lasted a few months.
