  1. All that’s be one way them to win a PAC title
  2. I have to wonder if Klownikoff is looking at potential legal liability for the bullshit he fed the gullible left-behinds? I’m doubtful, but I sure as hell wouldn’t want to screw Cal or Stanford out of money considering their alumni base. I know, if they cared, the schools wouldn’t need the cash (although Tree has more money than God). It’s one thing to make a bad deal out of incompetence, it’s another to deliberately pull the “checks in the mail” crap.
  3. Yeah that was worded poorly, my apologies. The point I was trying to make (badly) was that having juice in the PAC is going to mean Jack in the BIG12. They are going into a good-old-boys club that could give a tinker’s damn about the PAC. Utah has already stepped in it. Pretty much the same case if USC thinks they are going to run the B1G.
  4. Being THAT technology-ignorant and drawing attention to it? “The digitization (?) of our games that you can view anywhere in the world and manipulate…” Live-streaming mofo… ever hear of it? Ever hear of a pause button? A President doesn’t have to be tech-savvy, but I would think they have an IT department or a grandkid to say “dude, 2007 called”
  5. They are going to learn a hard lesson going from the wine and cheese fart-sniffers in the PAC to the BIG12. Utah has a history of success that goes back a whole 5 years, and asu is asu.
  6. What a moron
  7. 1. Sign with PAC12 2. Get on the interwebz 3. ??? 4. Profit
  8. No doubt lol. Coming from L.A., generalizing the major city instead of the actual city bugs me. UCLA is in Westwood, not in Downtown LA. I’m sure the residents of Tempe or Scottsdale don’t say they live in Phoenix. We did business in the old Phoenix area and it was every bit as bad as South Central
  9. Tucson is a dump for sure, but don’t kid yourself Phoenix is a garden spot. Everyone thinks “Scottsdale & the ‘burbs are nice” but the city of Phoenix is craptacular. And that’s coming from an Arizona resident. There are areas that I have one hand on the wheel and one on a firearm. That said, ASU has the hottest girls hands-down
  10. Not to mention the “academic” side, UA is a research university, asu is state university. Or as a prof at a Cal State tried to explain it: “ the UC schools are research, we (Cal State) are the “working schools”. Not like that matters when it comes to athletics (except in the WAC 8, RIP), but there you go. Plus as someone said, UA was ready and willing to dip.
  11. Probably get around it by paying for travel thru the sports fund, which is most likely a private entity and not state funded. plus Newsome doesn’t obey the ban, so why should they?
  12. Not to mention there’s that pesky lawsuit that was filed against USC (of course) regarding athletes being considered university employees. That will be the death of traditional (for lack of a better word) college sports and move it straight to farm team status
  13. Hey, I resemble that remark lol (the nerdy white guy part)
  14. Stanford has seriously deep pockets and wealthy alumni. Plus they manage their finances like a boss, unlike say Cal or other schools deep in debt. And again, their school is very locked in with the tech industry in the area.
  15. Wazzu, Oregon State, Cal, SDSU?
  16. You may have hit the nail on the head… with Stanford’s Silicon Valley ties, they are the ideal match for Apple
  17. Big12 seems to have all the leverage over the PAC leftovers. A Machiavellian approach would be to offer 1 school (for even numbers), say Arizona, and let the others sweat for the year, then offer them a spot but with lesser payouts. None of the remaining PAC schools seriously move the needle money-wise, so go for the jugular. It’s not personal, it’s business…
  18. Didn’t UA & ASSU go through this crap when they joined the PAC? Wasn’t it a case of: UA: Mom, I’m going with my friends ABOR: Take your little brother UA: Mom… why does he have to go?? ABOR: He’s your brother, now take him!
  19. It’s heading towards the NFL model of “as long as we get a wild-card berth or better… we’re in the playoffs”. Sad but true. It will come down to who peaks or gets hot come playoff time
  20. Admittedly I have no clue as to how the conferences think, but would the B12 really want to be a “rebound” choice for the ducks (or any other WAC9 school)? If the ducks hung around for 10 years, then I could see it. But I guarantee-damn-tee if the B1G came calling in a year or two, they’d dip before hanging up the phone. If it was me, I would give them a “take it or shake it” offer locking them in for 10 years with a big buyout penalty. It’s not like they have ND’s (for example) brand value and national following, they aren’t going to move the needle in a huge way dollar-wise. Plus Uncle Phil will just cut a check to get them out of the deal. It’s not like they have a ton of options since the B1G is hinting they are standing pat at 16, and the SEC isn’t flirting with them. It’s an interesting poker game going on.
  21. Oregon State touting their academic value to the PAC …. snicker https://www.outkick.com/oregon-state-loyalty-pac-12-statement/
  22. Wait, whaaaaat? Northwestern hired its president from Whoregon????? Really. Wow, I’ll have to re-assess my opinion of Northwestern. AAU or not, NU >>> oregon
  23. I am so over this WAC10 or 8 or whatever nonsense. Bottom line is, the conference formally known as the PAC is F-U-C-T period. Klownikoff is pulling the old “the check is in the mail” garbage, and the moron schools are buying it. Somebody needed to grow a pair and say “screw this, we’re doing what is in our school’s best interest” (like USC and ucla did) and jump ship before the deadline. They are not getting a deal worth a damn, short of some billionaire stroking out and writing a humongous check. UO & UW are realistically the only schools that would warrant an invite to the big boys table. The rest of the WAC10 brings minimal real value, maybe, MAYBE potential eyeballs during an occasional hot run.
