I could see Oregon, but the second school would come out of Big 12. Baylor, Oklahoma State, maybe even Iowa State. They're not going to ask Washington to join. There not going to admit a team with a program and a fanbase in a death spiral. Even Utah probably has a better chance of getting in than Washington. We ain't such a big fish anymore.BleachedAnusDawg said:
If UW and Oregon manage to get a pity invite to the B1G the PAC will fold or become the new and improved MWC by bringing in the top-4 teams from the MWC. Hopefully the LA schools signaled this was coming to UW prior to it leaking or that's a really bad sign.TXDawg said:I can't wait to figure out what scrub teams the PAC-12 will recruit into the conference. Any predictions?
On the flip side, if Oregon doesn't get an invite because of us, that'll be our biggest win over them in 20 years.
TV revenue is a huge part of these moves. -

14 current teams
USC
UCLA
UW
Oregon
Cal
Stanford
ASU
Arizona
North Carolina
Duke
Possibly substitute Arizona schools or Bay Area schools with Virginia and Virginia Tech
Two of these things are not like the others... North Carolina and Duke would never agree to this. Sub Colorado and Utah and it just might work. -
Why? Because they will be hearing us complaining forever how we deserve better? We will be right there with them.haie said:
The biggest fucking quck on Twitter thinks the Pac would be fine if they add BYU and Boise in. LOLRaceBannon said:

I feel bad for Beavlet. Mother fuck cuogntxduck said:Oregon has more alumni in the Bay Area and LA than Portland at this point. And gets way more viewers from the Bay Area than cal + Stanford combined.
Maybe I’m getting soft, but I feel bad for coug and beav with how this is going to shake out. -

North Carolina and Duke would play in a division/pod with Penn State, Maryland, Rutgers, Virginia?, Michigan and Ohio State? They wouldn't be in the Pacific/West division. I'm just spit ballin here. Hoping for the best.theknowledge said:Big 10/Fox

I feel bad for the 3 viewers in China who won’t be able to watch the Pac 12 games anymore.

UW is not smart enough or bad enough to be Vanderbilt.
It would be funny if the B10 ends up taking most of the P12 and turning it into a division. The USC players would get a few extra dick twists for a couple years -
That's one way to get out of a bad TV deal early.Canadawg said:It would be funny if the B10 ends up taking most of the P12 and turning it into a division. The USC players would get a few extra dick twists for a couple years

Has nothing to do with comparing Seattle to what I presume is Portland. It has to do with getting an invitation to join.creepycoug said:

ESPN has just called it official.

UW and UO will be fine.Kaepsknee said:ESPN has just called it official.
Couglet and Beavlet are fucked.
There's about an 81% chance of that being the case. -
Central, Butte College in CA, (I’m hearing the vegetation is filling in just fine) Montana/St. (They’re gonna have to merge), Grand Canyon St and #my’eaters of Cal State Fullerton.TXDawg said:I can't wait to figure out what scrub teams the PAC-12 will recruit into the conference. Any predictions?

This is how business works. Eventually the ones that don’t bring as much to the table get sent down. If that turns out to be the case. There needs to be a relegation mechanism. And I can’t believe I’m saying this, but like European Soccer. The have nots have a chance to rise up. And the Larry Scott’s get kicked to the Mtn West.haie said:

I thought those that were supposed to be sent down get bailed out by the government?Kaepsknee said: -

It will be a couple boxes of Cougar Gold and Potato salad and a keg of Busch Lite.
To split, of course.
Don’t think I didn’t notice your lame ass attempt to drag this into politics though. Maybe try sitting on a grater tonight. It will be much more enjoyable for you than coming after me tonight. -

Wilner was pro lockdown like every other media schlub in 2020 but to his credit, broke ranks relatively early. That was his protest of the PAC 12 season being initially canceled in 2020 before it wasn’t.theknowledge said:Wilner with Fauci as the Heisman Trophy on his Twatters. Weird and cringe. I'll take it to the Tug but C'mon Man!!

Wilbur doesn’t have any opinion of his own. He echos whatever Oregon coach Justin Wilcox’s agent tells himKaepsknee said:

Today I learned that it’s p-patch and not peapatch. Also didn’t know that it was a Seattle specific thing. Thanks dannarc, very cooldannarc said:

Larry fucking Scott and that California liberal attitude Destroyed the pac 12

could destroy pac 12 recruiting and transfer portal starting next year will be a freeway out of the pac 12.. UW or pac 12 need to act quickly and we have Jen to try and maneuver through this shit.

Arizona + Mountain schools to Big 12
Stanford likely independent but TBD
Cal/Oregon St/Wazzu merge with the Mountain West
ND likely to the Big 10
Big 10 gets to 20 (4 pods of 5) … 20th program TBD -
They really wanted SC and UCLA because the big ten west is super trash. Only decent team is Wisconsin.

I dont feel good about this.

In a certain sense, this breaks my heart. All that tradition, all those years of looking forward to playing USC in the rain and battling for a Rose Bowl berth. *POOF*whatshouldicareabout said: -

Illinois seems like an obvious to go. The Chicago TV market likely goes Notre Dame, tOSU, Michigan, MSU, Northwestern, Purdue in order of interest before it gets to Illinois. -
I like that a bunch of Ducks just learned how unimportant they really are. Fox came calling and the only one that moved the needle was USC, and of course UCLA got the little brother pity invite. UW and Duck not part of the equation. I was under no illusions that UW sucks so no surprise there, but I love all the Ducks learning that they are worthless just like us.
We will end up landing somewhere with Duck because of TV, but what is happening with Beav and CUOG is the most hysterical thing in all of this. -

Ultimately if things don’t change we’re gonna have only Derek left posting items if interest and nacho telling him , “ Thanks Taft!” Ugh
