    Meh. I don't hate adding SDSU.

    It's everything else that is the issue

    Not to pick ok to pick on you that's the small time attitude that killed west coast football and drove LA away

    I miss REAL Husky football

    Truth be told we* should have been made SDSU a frequent OOC opponent to get more games in SoCal.

    Doesn’t mean they should be a conference member.

    Worse is who this conference might get to have a nice round number of teams. Cause while I don’t think SDSU belongs, they’re easily the most interesting, desirable and available G5 school in our geography. I shudder to think who might join with them.

    If Alabama, Auburn or Oklahoma had the ability to move on to another round of the playoffs with wins over Utah, UCF or Boise St. none of those historic upsets would have been close games. If UW stays too long with the losers on the west coast they will essentially be the plucky Utes, Knights or Broncos in the playoffs. Instead of sneaking up and winning they will feel the full weight of the big boys money, effort and talent when on the national stage. It won't be pretty. See Utah in the last two Rose Bowls as an example. Big 10 #2 OSU gaining 683 yards in the 2022 game against the P12 champ with a handful of starters sitting out and Big 10 #3 PSU physically dominating and grinding the P12 champ in 2023. GTFO ASAP even if its for a reduced share. You just can't sell this turd sandwich to the type of recruits that will help you compete in the playoffs.

    Exactly. Every day this goes on hurts the perception of UW and hampers recruiting. I think it's already a big factor.

    The only doogish take I can think of is STAY and beat the shit out of the weak conference and have a good chance with a playoff expansion spot via Clemson and the ACC. Hard to believe west coast football will stay down forever, but it's looking more and more like reality as tim goes on

    This is nothing compared to Wilner reporting that the remaining members all agreed to an equal share of revenue if a deal gets done.

    When asked how Washington and Oregon would be 'enticed' to stay he replied that the Pac 12 playoff participant would get a higher share of *that* revenue.

    Dude is the biggest fucking PAC 12 shill and Cal/Stanford fluffer there is.
