PAC12 going on the offensive. They’re going after

7/5/22 2:27pm

Really? Why?

MAcc15Coug

7/5/22 2:28pm

They would be dumb not to.

Eddie

Sorry, the why was for any Big 12 school.

MAcc15Coug

If you can get more money in the PAC 12, why not go? Looks like only one will

Stable.

I can think of a few reasons…

This made me laugh. Nice job

BYU-Laie

7/5/22 6:10pm

I wonder who thier priority targets are.

Mister P

7/5/22 2:28pm

My guess is Oklahoma St, Texas Tech, TCU and 1 other

Kansas. AAU, basketball giant, and next big market east of Denver

Doogal McCougar

7/5/22 2:35pm

Yeah, that would be my top guess, though I think they've also liked Kansas St at points

krindorr

7/5/22 2:36pm

And they'd be able to compete in football from day 1.

DB Cooper

I would target:

TCU doesn't fall in the religious obstacle category any more; and they are #1

Doogal McCougar

7/5/22 2:50pm

Have to target at least 4 "classic" Big 12 members to avoid the GOR/buyout/exit fee issues

krindorr

7/5/22 2:52pm

UH has small share of the huge media market...

Les IsMore

7/5/22 9:47pm

They’re not asking for media negotiation numbers just to sit on them.

7/5/22 2:29pm

Yeah, you have to go down swinging.

Mister P

7/5/22 2:32pm

They're probably working on all sorts of scenarios...

lbmango

7/5/22 2:35pm

They can ask but it might not do much good

You think there are B12 schools willing to pay $80M to move to an unstable PAC?

Stalwart Man

7/5/22 2:33pm

And? Why would the B12 schools make that jump now? Especially with UO and UW with a foot out the door?

7/5/22 2:37pm

Exactly. What could the pac10 offer them that is any better than what they get?

SoValleyCOUG

7/5/22 4:55pm

"Who goes after who" really just means which conference

CrimsonCardinal

7/5/22 4:44pm

If B12 could have a "do-over" would they trade UCF, Cinci, WV for

flyzag

7/5/22 4:52pm

Even the most blue-googled CB stalwart has to say yes to that trade.

CrimsonCardinal

7/5/22 5:47pm

That’s easy. Kansas State and Iowa State.

YOHONOMOTO

7/5/22 5:09pm

Iowa State football has been ranked 5 out of the last 5 seasons.

7/5/22 5:29pm

I will admit to not following the bottom of the Big12 at all.

CrimsonCardinal

7/5/22 5:45pm

It doesn’t surprise me. I wouldn’t have expected them to go down without
