Message: [QUOTE="dayooper, post: 4701946, member: 3859"] Going to disagree with you here, at least a bit. I do believe the Big10 wants at least Washington and probably Oregon as well, but will not take them until others leave the PAC and it’s not viable anymore. I know it’s BS as they took the LA schools, but that’s the way I have heard. The Big12 has to pull from the PAC 1st. I heard a rumor that it was supposed to be USC and Oregon, but the TV partners wanted the LA market for themselves and asked for UCLA instead of The Ducks. Another rumor was the former Big10 commish wanted the entire West Coast with USC, UCLA, Cal, Stanford, Oregon and UDub, but the presidents balked with that many new schools at one. With those 2 schools (OU and UW), that gives 18, plenty of room for a couple of East Coast/ South East schools to join (along with a certain Midwest school I’d they decide to take the plunge).
