I pity those schools that are still trying to keep some version of the PAC 12 alive, which is more than I can say about everyone who gave a flip about the SWC or the potential demise of the B12 when Texas and OU said they were departing.
So hell yes Limey and Eight here's to a glass more than half full and welcome Colorado by beating their butts.

Can’t help but feel bad for the beavers and cougars.

Was thinking a bit further back:
End of great SWC rivalries
End of a really good MWC with great rivalries. UTAH, BYU, TCU all top 25 was a great conference.
We now have those three together again, but add TTech, Colorado, Arizona, Arizona State, Baylor, KState, Kansas, West Virg, and a VERY promising UCF with huge alumni and Florida base.
It really may be stronger than the conference with OU and UT in it. Just needed to get rid of the [Finebaum]-blocker and this thing takes off.
Now, let's add a Duke, and Pitt/Miami/Louisville combo, and it really won't get much better. Hell, add a bball UConn for our North/Eastside partners.

Go full "Draft Day" on the uncertain four corner schools:

Would have been nice to have 3 cougars and 2 wildcats in the conference to keep things simple.

I prefer VT & NCSU if available and I think they will be. Leave the others for the AAC.

At the Az. BoR meeting last night UA & ASU already had a pre-agreement with UU to leave the PAC for B12. UA had already notified coaches and everyone they were leave.
But Michael Crow of ASU did a complete 180 flip stabbing everyone in the back and stopped the process dead in its tracks. Complete bedlam broke out.
Crow was defiant and refused to acknowledge the agreement saying he wanted to stay in PAC and said I’ll see you at the GoR meeting tomorrow.
Then the GOR vote failed miserably today, with only WSU & OSU approving, and Oregon/Washington withdrew from the conference, and the PAC died.
We would have had an announcement today for all 3 teams if it wasn’t for that moron Michael Crow.
We should leave ASU on the floor, but that could also mean leaving UU.
The B12 has taken a step back and is now deciding to either stay at 14
or still take ASU and UU by extension. Not sure what will happen here.

Naw Utah would come without ASU. Offer Stanford and Cal if Utah falters. Utah would leave ASU behind for dead quick.

"The finances of the move are not immediately clear, but both Oregon and Washington will receive only a partial share of the conference allotment through the length of its upcoming television deal, which goes through the 2029-30 school year."
"Oregon's and Washington's decisions to go to the Big Ten won't be a financial windfall in the short term. The deal is expected to escalate each year, but it's still only in the neighborhood of a half-share of what the other 16 teams in the conference are expected to get. A source said the payouts would grow every year and be competitive with, and perhaps surpass, the payouts of leagues such as the Big 12 and ACC."

It would be hysterical, if we announced Arizona, Utah, and Stanford.

So, will the Big 12 become the Big 14, Big 16 or Big 18. With an eye towards becoming the Big 24 after the ACC craters?

UU, as of now, does not have an offer in hand.
However, I’m sure UU would come with UA if offered. UU better get on the phone with BY and try to save this
Stanford is currently planning Indy.
Yes, we could probably get Cal. or OSU, but neither is 1/2 as good as what ASU would have been. ….and BY wants none of Stanford, Cal, or OSU.
The B12 will not got to 15, so who is the 16th if UU comes?

Don’t really want Stanford, but the idea of leaving Cal all alone is delicious.
Stanford being left alone because no one wants to deal with their stuff is amusing.
