Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

If the B1G is no option, what would you like to see happen to the Huskies/Pac-12?

    I wish we were allowed to call for genocide.

    You were close with the first option. Boise St is a much better fit than SMU. But all in on SDSU

    @EwaDawg 's idea is the best idea. Keep the Pac intact ... maybe invite a San Diego State, which could become a powerful program with a Pac X? recruiting platform. ACC keeps its shit together and the bi-coastal thing is fucking interesting as fuck.

    Also bring in Boise, unless Newsom goes Newsom and makes UCLA come back. And go ahead and do the ACC alliance for 4 years with options. I still think that the ACC will have to let go of Mia FSU Clem and NC eventually. So don’t be stupid and do a long term deal with what could be a ghost conference.

    They lose money with Boise dude. It doesn't matter what you think of their brand.

    As memeable as the PAC is now its core is still head and shoulders above the G5 version of the BIG12. If George Klavinshinkov is any good he could snag Okie st, the Kansas schools, Baylor and Texas tech (pick 4) and divide money appropriately.

    They'll probably stay at 10 unless they add SDSu with a tarred and feathered UCLA.

    They have to maximize revenue per school and staying at 10 is a big part of that. Plus Oregon and Washington, and maybe Utah or ASU will demand higher revenues than the other schools.

    Aside from Kansas those other 3 you mentioned would lose money for the Pac.

    I am beginning to think there is some truth to this. And is probably the biggest reason that a merged Pac10/Big12 will not be joining the ACC for a super conference (agreement).

    You could try to make it work with a required annual two games (home and home - one patsy, one power) against the other coast. That might increase tv viewership enough to make it work but not likely.

    Sadly, Ewa's grand plan seems destined to fail.

    In the short term yes. But it would be a forward looking investment to growing eyes from around the country and staying relevant
