    The key to the PAC is if there is a GOR or the length of the GOR. IMO any school in the PAC that has a any shred of doubt should not sign any GOR longer than 5 years.

    The schools who were making the most noise about the PAC getting left behind are still there. 

    I'd say that any PAC school who has other options are waiting to see what the deal they are offered looks like, and if it's somewhat behind the Big 12's there will be some jumping ship taking place.

    It was the PAC falling behind that put them in this mess, so I don't see those who can leave, sticking around just to continue falling 3v3n further behind... 

     

    But 5hen again,. Does the Big 12 really want 4 pact teams?  The sports mouths around FSU are making a lot of noise about getting out...  I only mention it, not because I think the BIG 12 has a chance to snag them. I mention it because I remember us getting crucified over unequal revenue sharing as if UT not only created the concept, they were also the only team who benefited from it.  But that's what FSU sports guys think the ACC has to do...  The same talk was taking place out west also.   

    It's funny how we are evil incarnate for being greedy, but when It's their coattail that's weighing them down from all the mouths on it, then it's fine to get more money than others. But you really got to love the hate that UT and OU is getting from the other Big 12 fans and sports media for leaving, knowing if their school's phone had rang instead, they would be the ones leaving. 

    It will be interesting to see who rises to the top of the Big 12 amd feels the burden of shouldering a conference in which over half of the members are more than happy to let others do it, but then bitch about how it's being done...

    Didn't FCB say we were a lock for the Pac back in, what, 2011?

    I'm not sure if that move would've ever taken place or not, but the PAC didn't do themselves any favors by rushing to invite Colorado so there wouldn't be room for Baylor because there would be no polluting of the PAC 10 with a Christian school. Then a couple of days ago, I was listening to some PAC 12 mouth, they are fine with SMU joining, but really wish they could shake Baylor and TCU free... 

    Oh how the arrogant have fallen...  From having their finger on the trigger in position to effectively kill off the Big 12, but there would never be a Christian school in the sacred PAC 10, so the the power division of the Big 12 could either like it or fuck off. To having a Methodist school as one of the two "must have's", but wishing they could get Baptist Baylor and Texas Christian.  

    The PAC have been fucking a duck the entire decade this round of realignment has been going on.  Their.  They have fucked themselves continually at only aggy could compete with.  

    Whiffed on the entire Big 12 south... Which would've put the PAC shoulder to should with the other two.

    Whiffed again on OU, and in the process, likely killed any chance of OU 2ver looking west again when they made a public spectacle of telling OU to fuck off...  As smart as they believed themselves to be, not understand that OU was offering them UT giftwrapped.  It wouldn't have taken long for us to have followed. We damn sure wouldn't have went east at that time, too much bad blood with the gimp little brother...

    Then to prioritize getting the PAC into Asia over securing exposure in your home country, like where your recruits are going to be coming from, not to mention the viewers who actually know what an Oregon duck is. Or to be up to their nostrils in quicksand, but each time someone would consider throwing them a lifeline, to carry on as if they were the ones in the position of power and if they were lucky enough to allow them to carry the PAC games, they should be forever grateful, because obviously the PAC wasn't letting just anyone to carry their games..  

     

    But when the last AT&T lifeboat was about to push off from the Titanic, offered to make room for them, to insist not only on sitting at the front, but to have the entire bench to yourself?  That's as aggy as it gets. Legends in their own minds...

    The punchline to the PAC joke was when they finally got the great visionary, Larry Scott  out of there, it seems they replaced him with Larry Scott 2.0.  I might be wrong, but from the outside, he seems to be every bit as arrogant and will say anything in the moment, without considering that within 24 hours, everyone will know he's full of shit and will make up shit just to look good in the moment without thinking about how it is going to make him/them look by morning. And that's aggy to the core.

    Fuck the Pac right along with OU.

    The only thing I see missing with Houston is fan engagement.  They definitely have everything else in their favor.

    If they are doing exceptionally well, they get fan support, but if they are not in competition for a conference title, it's back to COVID crowds in Houston.   The first year or two, the fans will show up for home games, but if you see any UH fans when you host them, they are fakes, likely Hawkeye fans in disguise, looking to take a duce in unlocked cars.

    So they also have idiots that don't realize pods aren't happening?

    Not pods, but there's perms and the rest rotating, give me OU aggy and piggy as our perms and I'll be happy.  But, it makes more sense based on revenue, having Mizzou play us and OU and aggy or maybe Arky? Having Missouri playing in the Eastern division, didn't do Missouri any favors developing any sort of regional rivalries, outside of Arkansas.  About the only ones they can pair Mizzou with and generate revenue from is OU, and then either us,  aggy, or Arkansas.  It makes the most sense, money wise to put UT/OU/Aggy/Mizzou all playing each other as permanent games, and doing the same with  the two Mississippi schools, LSU and Arkansas.i

    Which the makes it easier to group the other permanent games being.

     Bama, Auburn, Tenn, And Vandy, 

    Georgia, Florida, So Car, and Kentucky 

    It preserves  the core of the SECs biggest rivalries, while giving LSU a bonus for losing the yearly Alabama game. But it isn't like they will only see Alabama a couple of times a decade +, they will still play them regularly.

    Keeping it simple by having permanent rivals grouped together like this, makes it easier to set the schedule to have at least two  big time games every weekend.

    So, the only one bringing up pods is you... 

     

  5. All I know is for a decade aggy has ran it's mouth about tu being scared to play aggy, blah, blah, blah..

    But if you go to any social media post or sports site discussing this threads topic, and you will have no issue telling the difference between aggy comments and UT/OU comments.   

    Aggy wants to be in a pod with Alabama, Auburn, and (insert name). The ones that realize Alabama isn't the place for them, have Florida as the replacement cock they want to suck. Good luck finding ann aggy wanting to be with tu (and don't waste your time looking for an aggy post wanting to and OU, I haven't seen an aggy comment even mention OU)...

    Now the UT and OU comments heavily favor UT/OU/aggy/pig--insert name--

    10 years of chest thumping of how they would own us, but now that there's a chance to do it, in true aggy form, they'd rather let their pussy lips show than to nut up...

    I never cared to play those fucks again, but since we are going to be in the same conference again? Fuck Yeah, I want aggy misery for Thanksgiving yearly!  If they hadn't spent the last decade being insufferable cunts, I would care less wether we play them regularly or not, but now? I hope we make them beg the the Big 12 to take them back within a few years.

    You must have missed the John Burt years

    I'm still uncertain if manos de piedras Bury was really that fast? Or did no one bother covering him.  

    I wonder how many times our QBs would see one of our jerseys open by yards down field... As the ball left his hand would think, "fuck me, I wish I that one back"...

    it's almost like no one wants to go work for a coach who has the ultimate in job security, where you can't make any of your own coaching hires, who refuses to outline job requirements like play calling in contracts and who thinks there really isn't much wrong with the offense.

    Shocked GIF by The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon

    They all know if the offense doesn't perform, who Jimbo is going to throw under the bus at the end of next season, even if they didn't call a single play, or assign a single starter.  

    That job is a liability for any OC trying to move up the ladder.  Not sure what players will be there once the smoke clears. Most of the portal talent is going to be hard to land at aggy. 

    The aggy OC job might not be career suicide, but it can easily set anyone's career back a few years. The risk outweighs the gains. Probably going to be a rough season for the offense. If by some miracle they don't get offered up as a sacrificial lamb after the first season, is half your talent going to hit the portal at the end of the year? Obviously something sent them scrambling to get away from Jimbo this year.  Even if by some miracle the offense does decent, who will end up getting the credit? It's no secret who will catch all the shit if it doesn't.   

    Either aggy will pony up another rediculous sum of money for an established OC, or they are bringing in the 12th man off the sidewalk.

    This is hilarious Arch take:

    Jesus.  Georgia fought hard for him until the end .. Alabama fought hard also, but they, like everyone knew it had become a 2 horse race.  But they didn't move on completely.  They stayed in as much as they could.  When Texas pulled away, Georgia still fought hard to the bitter end.  

    These fuckers will come up with anything to make themselves feel better.

    And to think he'd signed before my first cup of coffee finished making...  Fucking morons, Arch has been rock solid from before he announced.  Everyone and their dog knew where he was headed and not a single person outside of a sheep pen were surprised when he made his commitment official.

    If you are going to predict the sky is falling, at least pull a Maya...  That way you don't look like a complete moronic sheep fucker while you are still around...

    I believe it's going exactly as Jimbo had planned.

    Exactly, don't forget aggy landed biggest and bestest cruitin class of all time last year with the bulk of thw cruits being defensive players, without having a defensive coach or staff on the team...   Those offensive cruits will be falling out of the woodwork in 3-2-1.......

    In 3-2-1... 

    Uummmm. 3-2-1....

     

    I wonder when they are going to figure it out.  There's not going to be an OC hire.  What's the point when Jimbo is going to continue calling the plays out of his playbook...

    And 100 million is a lot of money to scrape together to rid themselves of that playbook. Every dollar counts.

    New definition of 12(th) - Man: picture with a bunch of 12th place finishers and dudes: 12, 12, dude, 12,12,12,dude, 12,12,12, 1, dude

    Holy shit! What even is this? Serious question. Any random collection of college-aged women has to be better than this.

    I believe that "1" is a bobblehead.
