Well, the last thing I want is CU signing on with the Conference from Deliverance in any fashion other than for pure expediency, and with a built in escape hatch if the B1G or SEC come calling. My fear is that now that SC has pretty much screwed everyone in the Pac, save fUCLA, should the B1G take UO, UW, or by some stretch Stanford and Cal, the dented washtub that represents the Pac12 ship of state becomes a piece of driftwood. Then CU and the few others with enough clout have to go to Goober the Truck Stop 12 commissioner with hat in hand. That would be bad.
EDIT: what creebuzz said, only better and more succinctly.
