“No brand in the Group of Five has the value of the Pac-12 brand,” the industry source said. “If you have the brand, you own the history.”[/i]
his 'sources' fucking suck. the 'brand' of the pac-12 is fucking dead. the 'history' is with the teams that have bailed. walton isnt going to be able to say 'conference of champions' anymore, all those titles left town.
its fucking insane how much he reaches for shit.

I think there’s a ton of value in being 2 of the worst programs in PAC-2 history.
Long live linear TV!!!

FSU, unc and Clemson are going to absolutely love this. This is a horrible idea.
Seriously though is Cal counting on Calimony from UCLA to keep their athletic dept funded? There is no way they can afford that revenue number without cutting sports or tons of booster money.
Notre Dame is the most interesting since they voted yes for this. ND still treated like a top brand and isn’t killed by the ACC money like the rest of them.
But in some number of years FSU, Clemson, UNC and Miami are not going to be in that conference. Is ND going to want to be part of the remnants for their conference association? Especially if the football playoff ends up being run by B1G and SEC.

I can't wait to see UW face Rutgers and Maryland in Lincoln, NE
I'd love to be able to see the collective faces when it dawns on the brain trust at Cal that there's no money left for women's softball.

It seems like the best (crappy) option for OSU and WSU since it does not look like a Big-12 offer is coming. Ultimately, the P5 status would be gone, and any new media deal would much more closely resemble what the MWC currently has, but they'd have a full conference with a reasonable geographic region. This also probably puts them in a much stronger position to try to keep more of the Pac money and network assets than if OSU and WSU were to leave the Pac and join the MWC. If OSU and WSU are completely resigned to the idea that they are no longer going to be power conference teams, isn't this the best move they can make?

I thought Wazzu and OSU could go independent for a bit and have a scheduling alliance with the MWC like ND does with the ACC.

Under this scenario, I imagine they keep most of the assets of the Pac-12 network and use it to compensate for whatever dimes and nickels ESPN or FOX hands out
So we’re talking about taking a shit conference, adding 2 pac teams and then calling it the pac?
Feels like putting lipstick on a pig.

cewg and beavlit legit have a better chance making the playoff in that conference than they did in the PAC
can their athletic budgets keep from imploding is the real question
