Well, with USC & UCLA gone they kind of have to don't they?

P12: "You should give us more money." TV People: "Yeah, that ain't happening"

So they can start getting less money sooner?

ESPN be like:

Turnpike Lane

7/5/22 10:08am

Sounds like they all want to know how bad it is before they decide to leave.

Pee Wee Reese

And that is it. Want to know it be better to stay together with what they get, or bail to B12 if offered.

Expansion could be part of the discussion with the TV folks.

They've already authorized an exploration of expansion.

I can tell them right now. If no one leaves, they’ll be on par with the ACC

I think the conference is trying lock in GOR like the ACC.

Why would ANY media company do any negotiation with the P12 right now?

Lock in GOR with UO and UW still in it.

Is it a way to lock in the remaining members with a new GOR? Of course, if the

That's asking to bid on a lot of uncertainty

Maybe they can bring Larry Scott back as a consultant.

You would be very wrong.

7/5/22 10:35am

Really? You don’t think both conferences are speaking to their respective media

Pretty reasonable take, actually. I could pick at a few points but

Yep. Big12 much stronger here.

I'm not sure you understand reality. The Pac is negotiating their new media..

That's EXACTLY the point. Those four average the same value as other Big 12 memb

I think the Big 12 exit fee of two years conference payout (about $80M) would

Stalwart Man

7/5/22 11:24am

If 4 more leave the Big 12, they (+OU/UT) could do so without any payments/rights loss. Which makes ESPN a threat

krindorr

You seem to get it. The greatest value is not in picking off 3 or 4 schools

Utefaninenemyland

7/5/22 12:09pm

If it was my choice, I'd have taken the PAC in a second until last year

BYU Fan

I hadn't thought of that scenario, but the challenge is that those schools have

B12 needs to act now. If negotiation goes well, it could hold the Pac12 together

Hill4Heisman

Big 12 is acting. That's why they called the negotiation now and not next month.
