That Twitter account JBook is a guy that’s a contributor to an Ohio State sports site similar to CF. It’s not like Gene is retweeting a nationally renowned media member. He retweeted an Ohio State shill. I guess I don’t see this as any thing good bad or otherwise.
a.k.a. The Western Conference.I could see some of that happening. But the Big Ten isn't renaming itself. There's 100+ years of history and brand equity in that name. It's not going anywhere.
That could just as easily be a RT aimed at those spreading rumors about OSU leaving for the SEC
Also it’s an imgur image not a link to an actual tweet. If anyone can link the tweet tag me!

SIAP, but is it at all possible that ISU has a good idea of a landing spot already? I see things that get me down about this whole thing, but then I remind myself of the following: First, JP is being silent and presumably calm if the reports of him chilling at the lake over the weekend are true. Second, we continue to have good momentum from a recruiting standpoint - makes me wonder if the staff is assuring recruits that we will be in a good place. Just a Monday morning thought.
JP has contingency plans and lists for everything. I would assume, that since 2011, that he has been informally testing waters here and there along with making close ties to key people. People sometimes wonder why JP does some odd things. He is gaining favors so when the time is right he can call them in.SIAP, but is it at all possible that ISU has a good idea of a landing spot already?

Man, what that tells me is that the PAC12 office is crazy expensive. I thought the b12 sucking 29 MM was idiotic. That is pocket change according to P12.Gahhh, that chart sucks...and is slanted to reflect the Big 12 as the bottom feeder. Here are the per team numbers...
1. Big Ten: $54.3 million
2. SEC: $45.5 million
3. Big 12: ~$38 million
4. Pac-12: $33.6 million
5. ACC: ~$33 million
These numbers also don't reflect the third-tier revenue numbers per team in the Big 12.
Water under the bridge, obviously, but it again shows that the Big 12 was doing well, payout-wise. I can see why Clemson would be quick to make a move to the SEC...
