What grouping would you prefer, if say the conference wanted to add 3 teams?

It's all backward. The Mtn West should be discussing which teams they're going to gain from the PAC dismantling.

Just kill the program if any of these schools are considered viable replacements by AMC and the Regents. There’s really no reason to continue if these are the options to keep the league afloat. If any of these options come to fruition it’s clear UW doesn’t care about athletics. Wild. What terrible stewardship by the Pac 10/12 presidents over the last decade. There’s a reason academics are denigrated for living in ivory towers…this could be the culmination. At the same time, it doesn’t seem like that many UW alum actually care, so maybe it’s just the inevitable outcome of a lack of support from upper campus. It really sucks though. I can’t see a viable path forward for season ticket sales and national interest outside of a bounce to the BIG 10. As a student at UW in the mid 90s it’s astounding how bad UW’s AD and President have been behind the curve with the new reality of college athletics.

This. All this chatter about keeping the Pac together is shit as fuck.

It’s big 10 or bust. And if that isn’t viable, we should say fuck it all and go independent.

BSU and Fresneck are not realistic options unless the pac 12 suddenly ignores academis

SDSU, SMU and one of many others (HI/UNLV/Nevada/etc).

You know if it's 3 the first 2 are likely SDSU and SMU.

And no way in hell it's Fresneck or Boise trucking cc (or Hawaii for that matter).
