No, but they can put their dreams into action.That’s fine, but nobody is going to recognize that new “Pac 12” as any kind of “power” conference.
And while they won't get a TV contract anywhere near the power conferences they can make a play at getting one much more lucrative than what they are getting as the MWC.
Last I saw each MWC school was getting $3.5-$4.0 per school per year. Drop the dead weight, get some TVs in Texas and they might double that.
