They will only get about 30% of ACC Rev the next 7 years. Which will be $7.2 million per. That’s G5 money with a P4 name tag. North Carolina and FSU voted no to adding them. This conference won’t last, most know that. Again, pretty fucked up if P12 schools turned down 30 mill from ESPN, expecting 50 per. I’m still not happy about Utah in the B12. NCAA credits might be more but the B12 was never our first want. https://www.sportskeeda.com/amp/college-football/despite-30-million-offer-10-pac-12-teams-espn-stanford-cal-refused-accept-media-deal-money-reports True but it’s a stable few years as the next conference shift comes about. Landscape will change again. Bide our time Good football and better basketball…..it will be interesting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utah grew in a big way academically as well as athletics. Water under the bridge at this point. The B12 was survival. Doesn’t mean I’m happy about it. Going to BFE Kansas and Iowa, Orlando, Cincy, Morgantown, dirty-filthy Houston, Waco? Just not the same. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mano Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 I still would like to see OSU and Wazzu get into the Big 12. I would prefer 3 pods with 6 teams each, and western pods could be OSU, Wazzu, Utah, BYU, Az and ASU. Would make me feel alot better about travel, especially for Basketball and Oly sports. Even if they have to take half shares for several years to get in, would still be more than they make wit MWC or AAC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duckfandan Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 The eventual Big12 v ACC showdown will be interesting once the P2 have filled out. I could see ASU and Utah leaving to a rebuilt ACC with Stanford, Cal, and the left overs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EastCoastFan Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 None of this makes any sense. Cal's tennis team playing in Boston? Colorado in a conference without women's lacrosse? Utah looking for a ski opponent in Central Florida? UCLA's swim team trying to find the pool at State College? SMU leaving Texas for every game in every sport to play on either the Atlantic or Pacific coast? And all these kids are supposed to be college students at pretty demanding schools? Arizona visiting Morgantown, Oregon in Piscataway? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long term it is more beneficial you put yourself in challenging/difficult situations. We perform better and it promotes growth…on several levels. If you’re not nervous then it doesn’t mean anything. Good luck and kick some arse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
