I would love WAZZU as well. I think they are underrated

but geography becomes a huge issue. I just don't see how they justify it. You can have a conference going from Orlando to Pullman? That's a long stretch and maybe you could justify it for UW, because they do bring brand/revenue/footprint. Not enough there to justify WAZZU.

Things starting to heat up in the news. The (Nash) game theory is interesting here... would WaSt and OrSt sacrifice?

Agreed. All the more reason to play a valuable role in crushing the P12.

B12 doesn’t need OSU or WSU to destroy the P12. It’s being destroyed either way

B12 ain't taking Or St without OR. Not an option. Or St leaving P12 increases

Meh... with only 9 teams there is less content, P12 contract drops. Washington and OR have to play someone.

PAC would prefer SDSU or Boise to Or St.... probably. More value.

Yorkmark is pretty adament that schools would need to be "additive"

9/28/22 12:46pm

I agree its not ideal. But is Washington State additive at $20M a year? I'd have to say yes.

Yormark has also made clear he's looking in the 4th time zone. I'm assuming he doesn't want Cal or Stanford

I think for all intents and purposes he gets that basically done with AZ

It's in the article I linked. But here are the relevant quotes from that article... a CBS article.

I know the $46M was the B12's total distribution because that has been reported

Scratch

9/28/22 1:26pm

Because it’s a well known reported fact.

NorCal_Coug

Again, that is not media deal $$$, that is total conference distribution.

I don't have any sources on this. I'm just going off of what is being reported by Dodd at CBS.
