Canzano: Oregon and Washington not holding up the Pac-12

Canzona is like that Texas guy when the first round of of realignment happened.
To be fair on that one, Georgetown hasn't made it out of the 1st weekend since 2006-07 and finished above 6th only 1 time in the Big East since 2012. If it wasn't for Patrick Ewing totally bottoming the thing out and he was just bad there instead they might be looked at as a down power or something.
I guess my point is that it's really, really hard to just totally murder a program.
The one issue I have with UConn is that you'd have to take them in football too. I know they got a bowl this year but that program is pretty bad.
This is what I want the most right now. Maybe all the tough games will make me hate it some day. But I just love the hell out of the double round robin so much
I would love it too, but I just don’t see a way.
22 conference games
3 holiday tournaments games
Iowa
Big East Challenge
Presumably Big 10 challenge
That leaves 4-5 games for cupcakes. If you could get ESPN/Fox to pay for it, I’d do it. Don’t do it for free though
Sounds like there was a lot of division in the Pac12 meeting:
Internet message board so who knows if there is any accuracy but this post is interesting:
“From what has been said by reliable sources (same sources that predicted the SC, Ucla exit) ASU is unhappy with the media deal and is talking with the other 4 corner schools about joining the big 12. ASU was the school most upset about the media deal in this weeks pac meeting in Phoenix. Expect an announcement from these schools leaving for the big 12 soon. The pac 10 is probably finished.”

Lot of talk in that thread about taking the 4 corners plus SDSU or OR+WA. Would that make sense for the B12? The conference would be getting pretty unwieldy at that point. Personally I already will miss 10, anything larger than 16 doesn't even feel like one conference anymore.Sounds like there was a lot of division in the Pac12 meeting:

It will be hilarious if Utah wants to join after 2-3 years of talking about how they hate the Big 12 with the fury of a million suns. Big 12 doesn't really need them.
They are a good athletic program, just their fans have been morons through all of this and blinded by their rivalry.
There is a link in that thread to a Salt Lake City sports radio show. I only listen to a few minutes but the hosts didn’t seem very positive about the Big12.
I like Utah's football style of play and coach, but their fanbase has been total idiots about all of this from what I've seen. They should want to beat BYU on the field but instead are obsessed with some idea of having BYU relegated to a lower status conference, if they aren't careful their pride is going to end up with the exact opposite being true.
How much longer is the Iowa contact? 22 game conference schedule is much more entertaining than that game. Same goes for the Big10 challenge IMO. I do like the Big East challenge since we don't get many opportunities to play some of those teams out East. But, we'll probably get stuck with Creighton or Marquette or someone laim like that.
In basketball? That thing is never stopping even if football does end.
Football is through 2027 though. With spots dedicated to it continuing as the second game of the season after that
There is zero reason to add SDSU
Agreed, if push comes to shove, I don’t think the PAC schools are going to say no to joining the Big12 if we don’t t let SDSU in.
The Arizonas can come. IDK if I actually want Utah or Colorado anymore though. Utah made it clear they don't want to be here from the fan base and AD. Colorado left already and nobody is actually invested in the program all that much.Sounds like there was a lot of division in the Pac12 meeting:
