I'm 75 minutes in. Really good discussion.

Danny said something like with Colorado leaving the Pac-12 realizes it got dumped by the ugly chick (or something like that)

Danny thinks Kalashnikov should resign. Nobody can take anything he says as grounded in reality. But he doesn't blame him.

Danny and Christian vaguely put blame on Pac-12 presidents but don't seem to want to criticize Cauce. (That's how I read it. Danny might think that's an unfair assessment.)

Danny doesn't think any of this is the ADs' fault.

Christian summed things up well that the Pac-12's achilles heel has always been arrogance. They think they're above the Big 12.

The Big 12 has recovered well from losing Texas and Oklahoma because they want to succeed.

The Pac 12 is collapsing from its arrogance and impotence (my words but that was the gist)

    FSU reported to be actively working to ditch ACC. B1G or SEC?

    If they go B1G and pull Clemson along, the Big-12 will suddenly become that 1am chick to Oregon and Washington.

    No, I think NC, Miami, Stanford and ND would be their dream scenario. Notre Dame is their brass ring. With the carrots of Miami and Stanford in tow the B1G then has pretty much all of ND's traditional rivals. Michigan, MSU, Purdue, Stanford, Penn st, USC and they then own the Convicts vs Catholics game. Unless UW has a wink wink agreement with the B10 that 24 teams is on the horizon then they should take the B12 money and run. If they get left without a seat they could be forced to play in a MountainPAC conference or pair with the likewise dregs of the ACC and and align with such athletic juggernauts as Duke, BC, Wake Forrest, NC State, Louisville and Syracuse. I also have a feeling that if the P12 dissolves that the B12 could turn around and take that Apple deal. Yormark is aggressive and shrewd. How much would that increase their payment? would they be up to 45 million? That pays a lot of bills.

    Agreed the dream scenario of the eggheads but where eyeballs are concerned FSU is second only to ND. The B1G should scoop up FSU and UM giving them So. Cal and FL. Imagine a scenario where they have a tOSU v. FSU or UM v. UM as a Saturday Noon game with SC v. PSU as the nightcap. And now become even more attractive to recruits in those States.

    Blaming the AD's is like blaming middle management. There's plenty to fire Cohen over but this issue is simply UW upper campus needs to go be best at everything. We? are already the flagship school in the region in academies. Time to go to the playoffs regularly and make the LA schools and Oregon cry more.
