How would the money be close when they were only expected to get a few million more than the Big 12 with USC and UCLA?

IOW - BIG12 members were unimpressed with our departure and are not interested in having us back.

I guess this means CU and Utah are out of Big 12 convos

There were no convos. There were deep internal discussions within the Big 12

Wow, that's a bold statement direct from the top.

In other words, We are committed to our current contract but that doesn't mean we aren't exploring all options.

yeah, they aren't going to openly say they're planning on bolting

Also, if they are negotiating with the Big XII, they want the PAC 12 to appear stronger so they appear to have some

If Oregon and Washington don't leave, and the money is close to what the Big 12

they could pick up SDSU and Boise and have a fighting chance

But it looks like if teams leave the pac-12 for the Big 12, the new Big 12 or get each team more money

I'm starting to get a little worried about that exact scenario.

NorCal_Coug

That could be REALLY bad and flip the script

With USC and UCLA the difference was expected to negligible with a few million in the PAC's favor.

you are correct

Nat Gas Man

I see that logic. I also think the Pac12 is done. They’d be smarter to take a spot in the BIG12 and wait for a possible

The question is how does PAC10 keep money close and add dilutive teams to conf.?

This would also mean ND isn't bringing Stanford to the B1G.

Good point. When OU and Texas left the Big 12, the did’t all try to jump ship.

That says absolutely nothing. It's basically coach speak for realignment.

We've seen this before. They have to say this. I do hope it's true though.

Just like Texas, OU, USC and UCLA were all committed to their current conference

Did any issue a public statement in this fashion right before moving???

I think Texas/OU did last year right before the split, no?

Aye. That quote was suspicious. Too manufactured.

Press Release: We at CU have learned our value to other conferences is far less than previously believed....

slatecoug

So what CU's saying is that when it's no longer PAC12 theyre no longer committed
