Now he may be trying to create anxiety with that statement, but I guess we'll have to wait and see.
For now, the Big12 seems to be waiting to see what the B1G does with UW/UO. And I think that is good strategy.
If, as the PAC10 commissioner suggests, UCLA balks, and Oregon moves to the B1G, then I could see the Big12 pushing hard to lure Washington away from the PAC10, and that would be good enough I think.
