Broken deal fees are pretty common in business, and in this context the $15mm seems reasonable.

CU has rejoined the Big 12 and broken college football - talking out asses continues

Definitely. But why, if you're UCLA, do you sign off if you're not certain that the UC regents are going to let you go?
A. It's not their personal money, and B. You always bet on a 99% probability of a big payday.

And put Orgeron in a separate category as nobody knows what he is.
a podcast I occasionally listened to, main dude couldn't remember Orgeron's name and called him "the coach who really sucked but somehow won a national championship anyway"

New Mexico (& Colorado) ain't in the Pacific Time Zone 
Arizona and Arizona State are too. Sometimes.

In the end we are still just dicking around the edges until the inevitable 64 team Super Conferences is established

Actually, we're consistently GMT-7. It's everyone else doing the sometimes.

At least now I feel like we may have a shot at an invite.
I was starting to wonder for a while there.

Members of the Atlantic Sun and WAC have agreed to form the foundation of a 10-member football-only conference with plans to join the FBS, sources told ESPN.
That's great news for CU. More FBS programs in the region who would be willing to take a pay day to play a road game one-off at Folsom. This should help us build toward the type of schedule that positions you for the playoffs.Sources: ASUN, WAC eye pairing for FBS jump

- 7 home games
- 2 non-con opponents who justify home & home agreements
- 2 non-con opponents who finance their program by playing one-off road games at places like CU

The same man who didn’t hear a peep about sc and ucla leaving. But knew coach prime was coming before it was announced.
Itll be a lot smaller then 64 teams. The TV folks will only have X to,pay. The teams joining will be motivated by a larger payout. Id think 12 to 24 at most. If the TV gods are smart they will make it a promotion/relegation system so they always have the X number of best teams.

i am almost unbelievably less worried about all this than when it started.
we have Prime and a motivated CU and fan/donor base.
we have an expanded playoff coming.
for right now, that is more than enough. we are going to recruit nationally and we ae going to win games. the rest will take care of itself.
also, i still think there is an ok chance that ucla gets ****ed and has to stay. that alone changes the entire outlook on this thing.

Exactly where I'm at. I had a loser's mentality. We all did. We were looking for a lottery ticket to get the resources at the big boy table. Now, we've seen CU be bold and take control of its own destiny. Conference? Side story because we're the biggest story in college football. We'll either bring a USC-less Pac to a new level or be looking down the road at the B1G and SEC fighting over us.
We're too blessed to be stressed.

What’s so unbelievable about this? I totally see a scenario where HCP called George several weeks ago to tell him to not sign a deal yet, because…I’m COMIN’The same man who didn’t hear a peep about sc and ucla leaving. But knew coach prime was coming before it was announced.
The new deal doesn’t start until 2025. Are the media partners confident Prime is going to be in the Pac 10/12 at that time?
