Not even close.

Pac 12 could of easily survived without Colorado.

You want the dagger?

It was USC/UCLA that stuck the dagger in.

Yeah, take your pick, 'the dagger' was either USC\UCLA or Oregon\Washington.

It definitely wasn't colorado. Hell, there was talk as recently as today that a pac-8 could survive even without Arizona.

Yeah, losing 2 of the 4 tent poles in the conference basically started the countdown. We're incredibly lucky that we had Texas and OU when the others left and just as lucky that others didn't jump ship when Texas and OU left.

I don't want anyone at a reduced share. **** like that is why we got in this mess in the first place. Either add them as full members, or don't. I'd rather we don't add them.
As long as their distribution is coming out of Fox's pocket and not ISU's, why wouldn't we start things out on the right foot.

From what Jason Scheer was saying about the Apple deal:

Apple is notoriously inflexible on negotiations. Bottom line is if PAC doesn't like their offer, Apple will simply move on to the next venture.

In fact, Scheer was even skeptical that the Apple offer was still viable a couple days back. Apple wants and gets things on their terms, period apparently.
So, Apple killed the P12. Or they were an accomplice. That sounds perfect! ;)

We are damn lucky that none of the other conferences picked the Big 12 apart when it was weak. And they had 3 chances at it.

“And a failure I simply could have never foreseen, given all the assurances I got about the wonderful media package that would far outstrip the B12 and the undying loyalties Oregon/Washington/USC have for the Conference of Champions. Kliavkoff is a genius sabotaged by the B12.”

Shut up, Stew

I would be willing to bet that these stuck up pac snobs want some sort of rebranding to keep the pac name somewhat in play. Big PAC?
