Yet the Big 10 added them and it increased the payout of their contract. Weird.

It is 100% in BYU’s best interest for the Big 12 to invite the Arizonas

Without California I struggle to see value for the Big 12 to expand to the west

There is a reason why Yormark talks about a 4th time zone.

You get Oregon and Washington, by inviting ASU and UofA.

I hear this a lot — where does this come from that USC won't want Oregon?

It goes beyond that. It's institutional envy & jealously. That swings both ways.

For you, are the Arizonas The two schools?

Culturally those two schools fit better than the west coast schools

The Big 10 has said publicly they are not expanding

Jim Harbaugh publicly said he was staying at UM and then interviewed w/Broncos…

Sure, and I agree with your assessment. Cal and Stanford are next on the Big 10
Loafer

Disagree. AZ schools don't bring much value at all.

Hmm… top 8 tv market? How does that not bring value?

same way Rutgers doesn't bring the #1 Tv Market in NYC.

Geographical expansion is itself of value right now. Brand-wise
SinkingQuffa

Unfortunately, the Arizonas by themselves aren't that appealing to either. P10 would just replace them
TFL
2/3/23 11:51am
So the Arizonas are not competitive, but CO is?
Loafer
2/3/23 11:53am
No. Utah is a homerun competitively and Utah / CU bring the same # of markets as Arizonas.
TFL
2/3/23 12:13pm
Adding Utah is not adding a new market

You continue to forget about the most important driver of expansion: money

and what exactly does utah bring? part of a small market with little national interest? Gotcha
ManicBlue

You'll notice, they never talk about just taking the Arizonas. Or even CU and an Arizona. It's always Utah
TFL

They? Also, every deal has to have some throw-in ... just like when the pac 10 took the utes before.

Substitute "begging" for "hoping" and head, meet nail.

It's not writing on the wall. Utah is in a great spot. Either P12 stays together or Utah jumps to Big 12.

A long winded response with no reference to the only thing that matters -> $$$

Eyeballs = money bro. Check out Utah total TV ratings vs. CU, ASU and UofA...even the great BYU. I remember

I love how you never address the fact that the Utah market is covered with BYU

You guys too. Like I said, if the Pac 10 falls, you're going to be very surprised Utah gets the invite.
