I disagree because of the CFP, the Portal, and look at NU.

And then there is another shakeup on the pacs board of directors.
Stanfords president is now forced to resign. Ba boom...tish.
Stanford president resigns over manipulated research
Stanford President Marc Tessier-Lavigne will resign effective Aug. 31. He will also retract or issue lengthy corrections to five widely cited papers for which he was principal author after a Stanford-sponsored investigation found “manipulation of research data.”stanforddaily.com
Hmm...maybe one less no vote for the likes of Boise State if they apply for P12 membership. Other than that, nothingburger.

The CFP is one major item to consider for the future of CU football.
The Big 12 might not have the prestige that the Pac-12 has but there is no shortage of B12 teams that has had success in football recently. The B12 is probably going to knock itself out of CFP contention more often than not which is something we have had to deal with the P12. I think we will see less of that in the P12 after USC & UCLA leaves for the B1G. I'm way more concerned with that than how much money CU will be getting from a media rights deal.

WTF?
Have you tried talk radio? I think you would be a fantastic regular caller!
Rome always used to say “have a take, and don’t suck”. Fred has one of those covered.

I’d ask who you go to for news coverage but I’m picturing it’s the equivalent of a raccoon sifting through trash.

BTW due to whatever the Open Meetings Act is called in Colorado you need a Public Meeting to take a vote. That is an executive session only. They could add a public meeting concurrent to it with proper notice, That doesn't mean its not being discussed. That also doesn't mean after a discussion it isnt completely clear how a vote would go. It just means there is no official action without a public vote. (if it sounds like I've been in a ton of them I have different state/entity of course)
For someone in the sevice class you have a good deal of surfaced rage. It would probably be better for you if you hid it more convincingly.
Easy for you to say if the state he lives in doesn't allow recreational use of a certain plant.
It is getting harder to sedate some of these worker bees.
You mean busybodies?
really appreciate this vibe.
Make the CFP money unequal based on you get the most if it's you and get a larger share if you were a bowl team. Reward success and commitment to winning. All those years that CU wasn't pulling its weight, we shouldn't have been getting as much as Oregon from the conference. There needs to be pressure and incentive to perform or losers get too comfortable accepting their current standard while the winners become disgruntled.
Stanford doesn't fvck around with that sort of thing. Really bad look for them. I just hope their reaction isn't to become even worse than they've been about blackballing potential Pac members they don't consider academic heavyweights.And then there is another shakeup on the pacs board of directors.

Who is gonna be his replacement on the board? Colorado?
I believe Phil DiStefano (CU Chancellor) already had a leadership position for athletics. I wouldn't want him anyway. But with UW & Stanford reps both stepping down and USC & UCLA ineligible to fill a seat, there are only 8 options. So it's tight. Your guess is as good as mine.
Don't they serve on a rotation?
Who's next up ?
Probably. But whether that's an invitation or obligation would also come into play

Kirk Schulz (WSU) is the current president, Robert Robbins (Arizona) is newly appointed to the board, and Marc Tessier-Lavigne (Stanford) was a member. I don't know the rules if someone gets forced out, but wouldn't it go to the next president of Stanford? Or the interim president?
I don't think the P12 would want a Colorado rep at this time and perhaps either ASU, Utah, or Oregon State would fill in. I wouldn't trust Stanford or Cal to do the right thing for the conference at this point.

Personally, I find the PAC media deal interesting in the sense that it is part and parcel with the entire disruption in the film and television industry. Movie theaters are dying, studios can’t count on big budget films to make a return at the box office, streaming is killing cable, sports viewership is in decline, there are demographic shifts in sports, tv, and film viewership, AI is here, writers on strike, you name it. It’s fascinating.

By my count, the presidents of Oregon, Washington, WSU, Arizona, and Stanford have all sat on the exec committee. If Saliman were to step up publicly now would be a good time.
on the plus side, i already hate almost the entire current truck stop conference lineup.
i never really did manage a hate for real for wsu, osu, stan, and cal.
if phillip becomes the leader of this pac thing, it ensures an outcome.
could someone who doesn't have to mouth the words while reading to themselves please explain why it has been concluded by the flyover fellowship that no news must be bad news?
who knew that all these random pundits who do not work in sports or media would be able to opine so expertly on our "dire" circumstances?
again for the slow witted now amongst us... there are 2 possible outcomes for CU:
1. we stay in the Pac because it is best for us.
2. we join the b12 because it is best for us.
how is any of this actually bad news?

WTF?
Fred2 is a B12 guy so he might have actually meant "relative" since the gene pool is extremely homogeneous in that section of the country.
As a side note for B12'ers, "homogeneous" doesn't mean what you think it means.
