Arizona president talks keeping Pac-12 together, TV deal expectations, deadlines, Big 12 interest and more
Robert Robbins is a man with an open mind. Arizona's president wants it known that he believes a new TV rights deal acceptable to everyone in the Pac-12 will be completed in a couple of weeks.
"I think it's very high," Robbins said of the prospects of doing that deal. "Let's just say more than 95% confidence limits on this."
But as they in the business world, the entire enterprise is a "soft circle." In other words, there is interest from Pac-12 schools in doing a deal if the money is right.
"A number don't mean anything until it's a written contract," Robbins told CBS Sports. "In Mississippi, they would say, 'They're about to fixin' to give me something.' They haven't quite done it yet. We have to get a real in-writing offer."

Why are the AZ school Presidents the ones doing the talking?

I offered him a one month trial as CFB moderator, but he declined saying he didn't think he had the time to be consistent. But he said he'd post some stuff here and there, which he has done. I thought his manic energy and eccentric ways might bring a new dimension to that forum.CFetters_Nacho_Lover said:
