Texas is the most de-stabilizing of anyone out there. So this makes complete sense.It’s amazing how getting rid of OuT brought about stability. Who would have thought?
Whether Oregon goes to the Big 10 or not, a merger is probably never going to make sense vs. picking off the best remaining 4-6, or whatever it takes to get critical mass to potentially open up some new possibilities with Apple or similar.
I'm not saying there might not be scenarios where inclusion of some of these schools makes sense, but it's important to understand that OSU, WSU, Cal, CU, UA, Stanford are basically like bringing in another KU football program in terms of viewership. It's likely the inclusion of any of these would hurt the per school media value. These are very bad TV products.
However, in addition to the media opportunities, the critical mass argument can be made to ensure playoff inclusion.
In my opinion, UW, Utah and ASU are takes, no questions asked. Then for the playoff inclusion efforts, you take CU and probably UA as well.
If Oregon goes to the Big 10, then the Big 12 is in the driver's seat. If the Big 12 wants to offer a lower share for initial years, I think they can try to work that for some of the schools.
Sorry, unsure on Utah. Read that AZ and Co was meeting.Are there Arizona/Utah regents meetings scheduled? I’ve only seen Colorado.

Problem with the 16 teams this would result in is a real lack of marquee matchups. Not to mention, little rivalry interest. So while the pie may expand, it will be small. Then you’re dividing it 16 ways. So all continue to fall behind. This sums up the rivalry/marquee sentiment.
Read so much over the long weekend I wouldn’t know where to restart.Any link for Arizona? Would be interested in that.

I’m aware of that report but not that the regents are meeting like the Colorado ones are. Anything that shows this is moving forward would be good news.![]()
Arizona to have meeting with Big 12 this week
A meeting is scheduled between members of the Pac-12 and Big 12 on Tuesday. Read on for the latest.247sports.com
Cincinnati should help that.I agree with his post, I mean no one cares about going to Lubbock lol. But losing nebraska and missouri hurt us for awhile but now I absolutely hate Kstate and baylor. WVU is just in a tough spot.
I don’t think money is a main factor.Thanks for the info. Crazy they are still holding a grudge all these years later. I wonder if ND would make more money as an Independent or as a member of the Big 10.
That’s what gets me, especially on non-revenue sports. Let’s send the USC swim team to Rutgers this week.Are we supposed to still believe college Presidents when They say that academics is the most important over money. When they send these kids on cross country flights in the middle of the week?
Timing is interesting if they want to hurry to get a tentative number from FOX/whoever that they can show the mountain schools and say that staying is better for them.
Keep in mind it’s 9:00 AM on the west coast so this meeting was even earlier than that. Seems like trying to get ahead of the Big 12 meeting today.
