You are clinging to what the PAC used to be.

You would honestly take WCC+Independence over the Pac-12?

I'd do the same joke.

No. But I am aware our FB recruiting would soar to new heights in a P5 league

P5 label was never about athletic prowess/performance, just fan base and $$

What future exists when HS sports programs are shuttered?

Well, I would think HS sports will open back up this fall.

Disagree. Identical access. Doesn't mean they take full advantage tho.

And yet if the P12 invited us to join, we’d fall all over ourselves to accept.

The PAC has a contract with the Rose Bowl and still gets power-level TV ratings.

Doogal McCougar

When Phil Knight keels over, the PAC will get even worse in both sports
