Yes, it was a very dumb move by the more coveted schools to sign it.

In any circumstance, no one was gonna take all of the relevant ACC teams (at the time Clemson, VT, FSU, Miami) at one time, and losing one would hurt the contract for the others

That was the theory at the time obviously but it was short-sighted in the big picture everyone has been predicting for a long time. It was a reactionary move made out of fear and pushed by the basketball schools. Very dumb.

I’m good with this.
I have nothing against Zona, ASU, Utah, or Colorado.
I feel a lot of the Pac 12’s issues are tied up in schools like Cal Berkeley who don’t give a damn about athletics and blocked a lot of moves by the conference as a result.

And then I would guess eventually Washington, Oregon, and Stanford join Big Ten. Wazzu and Oregon State join the mountain west and Cal drops all sports

does the big12 hit the trapdoor on byu, UCF, etc?
I see UCF being dumped but BYU vs Utah (holy war) brings eyeballs.

Does anyone know how Arizona, Arizona St., Utah & Colorado going to the Big XII would effect the Big XII's current GOR? Would it potentially open the door for Texas & Oklahoma to begin SEC play sooner? (No pun intended)

A few teams may hate it because they’re losing out by not being able to jump, but you can’t argue it’s been great for the conference as a whole

Except probably Rugby. Cal loves their Rugby...it shows how forward thinking they are.

ESPN floated a trial run on this with CUSA. The idiots at ESPN lost….and if they go a step further, a couple of current CUSA schools have legal ready to flip the switch on and watch the cockroaches scurry.

If the Big 12 can lure AZ, AZ St, Utah, Colorado, maybe Cal and SD St, they should ditch the whole East Coast experiment (WVU, Cinci, UCF). They would then be back to a regional conference with geographical ties that dominates an actual portion of the country culturally instead of being the stepbrother in every state the occupy.

Im gonna laugh my arse off when those pretentious west coast fricks lose the pac 12. .best part is them being stabbed in the back by there fellow big 10 snob
