    It means that the conference keeps your school’s TV rights if you move to another TV conference.

    Last June I predicted half-seriously that Jen Cohen would lead UW right into Mountain West membership. That is becoming uncomfortably close to reality.

    Washington will be fine, too many inherent advantages.

    We just remember the Iron Laws.


    As of right now, we’re so fine that we’re in a conference that’s considering putting games on Apple TV, and adding San Diego State and SMU as members. Rumors for our conference’s TV deal were as low as $24 million yesterday, although the PAC might get more money in exchange for putting games on Apple TV where no one can watch, And we’ll soon probably have to sign a TV deal to lock ourselves into the PAC for at least five years.

    This is not fine. Honestly, if you’re not in panic mode right now then you’re not paying attention.
    Washington has a seat at the table of whatever "New World Order" takes over college football.

    The Pac is dead, no shit. Washington is very much alive and too lucrative of a puzzle piece to not be included into the top tier of competition.

    Super conferences are coming and we're not going to be left out.


    But the PAC is dead.

    Then why hasn’t the Big Ten invited us? If they were ever going to invite us, why didn’t they invite us at least six months ago? And why did the Big Ten university presidents fire commissioner Kevin Warren, who wanted to invite us? Time had basically run out for a Big Ten invite-we’re going to have to sign a Grant of Rights soon.


    Some people on here really don’t realize how terrible this situation is.

    A reminder that you're on a website with people that expect the situation to be terrible and are rarely disappointed

    uw/oregon putting aside their differences and coming together to kill off the pac is truly special. reminds me of the time during covid season where byu flexed with the 'anyone, anytime, anywhere' but when uw said 'we gotta play at home' they backed off only to be trolled by oregon fans.


    sometimes rivals can come together and make the world a better place, not always, but sometimes.

    pic relevant:


    To quote chang kai Shek; “UW is a disease of the skin, byu is a disease of the heart”

    And if I spoke to you in 2007 you would have told me how Washington could never go 0-12

    I am excited for the 4 corner schools to leave and the academic smack talkers can Jack off about being in a leftover shit pile with cal and Stanford.

    School better figure it out quick or we will be searching for a coach again after our swan song this season. Either way….

    I don't think they are going to do that. UCF, Cincinatti, Houston?

    It's Mountain West Central in the Big 12

    Honestly, in 2007 I would have thought the odds that we would go 0-12 the next year were higher than the odds that we’d be in such a terrible conference situation 16 years later.
