Here's the bottom line. You can see the ACC below average and the PAC's paltry annual income

PAAC-16 here we? come

A little misleading since the P12 is still on it's original agreement.

Like a mediocre QB who is payed more then the MVP for a season because he inks a deal first. Then gets dwarfed once the superstar signs next.

I remember Larry Scott bragging because P12 was getting paid more for like 2 seasons.

I'm not very bright, but could someone help enlighten me as to why this is at all attractive compared to a Big-12 merger? Crisp fall days in Boston? I can't imagine this will help recruiting, it's still location location location.

Do you want your Florida game to be at UCF or at Miami or Florida State? I think the ACC is generally more desirable set of teams than the Big 12. If Texas and OU were staying I'd feel differently but hard for me to see the value of Baylor and TCU as enough to offset the mediocrity of the rest of that conference. ACC has some mediocrity too but has some real marquee adds in the two Florida schools and Clemson. Both conferences add basketball value but UNC/Duke trumps Kansas/whoever you see as #2 in the Big 12.

I know it's a lot of travel and that sucks. But there is no ideal scenario for us? at this poont.

All UW needs is a private jet. Not that hard to get with all the big money. Hell let's do a fundraiser here

Are we really going to start landing guys from Virginia and NC, etc? The conference already has a foothold in Texas, it would make sense strategically to consolidate and strengthen it.

Oregon is more of a national recruiting school than UW. Can't deny it. I don't think it matters to UO

UW has their own footprint. Losing Los Angeles hurts more than where they end up at. If you have the cash and win games and are on TV and make the playoffs you'll recruit. Or use the portal

As far as I am concerned its UO and UW against the world. Let's get the best deal and get back to hating each other

What dnc said, plus from an upper campus perspective the ACC is vastly more aligned with UW than the B12. The academic smack talk weirdos like haie or myself would find this amusing too.

I guess I'm just struggling with "it's come to this?"

Can’t blame you for that quite honestly

UO and UW should push everything to the middle of the table and go for broke to get into the B1G. Nothing else makes sense. And it would screw SC's plan to dominate west coast recruiting. One more reason to hate them.
