This stood out to me too.
I think it all was about getting more exposure for Shedeur for his Heisman run in 2024.
Three time zones...think we are still having this conservation if the PAC was in three time zones and that doesn't include Hawaii?

Yeah, I can really see that UW, now that you mention it.LOL I love my Jayhawks. But also have one of my degrees from UW (was there when we won the championship - we would have KILLED Miami that year) but I try not to judge if someone ONLY has a degree from CU
The things that jumped out at me today from the talking points include: the mention and focus on time zones. The mention of fox and espn as brands and their linear reach. The acknowledgment of potential damage to their west coast base. The inability to recruit Texas and not do better in ca.
With the ratings anticipated from Coach Prime, I can almost guarantee that CU would have been constantly playing its Pac games in the Friday and Saturday "After Dark" time slots. Valid concern from RG.One of things that stuck out to me was RG talking about getting better (as in earlier) game times.
Grow up!Dont be such a pussy. Tell us what you really think. The stuff youve holding down deep.
It’s horribly sad. I liked the traditional structure (probably for nostalgic reasons) and I have been a lifelong fan of the PAC. This sucks. I wish we had been better and I wish the PAC had been better.Final thought of the night for me:
As much as we as typical Allbuffers are giving wedgies and throwing pies at each other and dividing along some predictable fissures over all of this stuff, when it's all said and done the demise of the PAC isn't a source of pleasure for me, because it means that college football is starting to contract, very seriously and slowly, but surely. And that isn't great.
8. Most everyone is glad you are back but the "truckstop" and "12anon" bull**** pisses a lot of people off.
This is an idiotic take. Exceptions don’t prove the rule.Thats what Trev Alberts told us. He cant win without money. Somehow we hired Prime while he had a lot more money.
How are they firmly in third for TV revenue? Their deal pays their schools $17m/year through 2036ACC 'absolutely' open to expanding membership
ACC commissioner Jim Phillips said the league continues to actively consider adding teams but has thus far not found enough value in any expansion option.www.espn.com
Huh? Highly doubt this will happen.

Wilner and Canzano are schills and don’t know squat and are butt hurt they didn’t see this coming! Their life blood isbased on the pac and usc and ucla really hurt their credibility because neither saw that coming as with cu. Can’t stand either of them.**** Wilner. He can eat a bag of dicks.
A few gems from Wilner here:
"If a school participates in a conference for 12 years, wins no major championships, churns through five football coaches, then decides to leave, was it really ever there?" (didn't we win the MBB tournament the first year?)
"Also, CU’s departure is, at this moment, more about the psychological toll it could have on the remaining Pac-12 schools than any material damage sustained by the exit. The Buffaloes can be replaced, and easily so. They have made little competitive impact and lack the brand value and media market to kneecap the Pac-12 as it negotiates a broadcast contract." (Ha, we shall see. Hello Mountain West + Stanford).
"Of the 10 current members, Colorado is the only school the Pac-12 can lose in the realignment game without triggering either mass panic or a rush to the door that decimates the league." (do emergency meetings count as panic?)
"Our strong suspicion is that Kliavkoff has accounted for CU’s possible exit in his media rights negotiations and will pivot to Plan B." (ah yes, the media rights get better without Colorado).
"One president, DiStefano, took the option. Could others follow?" (is DeStefano our president now or is Jon Wilner a hack?)
Jon, I’m more interested in your opinions on the 2023 outlooks for UC-Davis and Sac State. Best polish up that resume….
Your an asshole!Number 8 warms my heart. Since you are the official translator from the mountain elite people to the rednecks on the plains, please tell them "kiss my ass, Q-Anon mother****ers." Thanks in advance! You're doing great work!
Also, could we get a pinot grigio up in here? And maybe some gluten free crackers?
Seriously though, gluten makes me feel bloated.Your an asshole!
Don’t worry I’ve been on their radar for weeks and love bashing me, you‘ll be in the background soon!Don’t get too excited sweetcheeks. The focus of my bit will be changing scope tomorrow so a new target will get to enjoy the spotlight
That’s California for ya!The Commissioner can only do what the members approve.
In the Pac-12, that meant 10 votes on business issues from government entities overseen by politicians and managed by professors with the other 2 from private entities that experience the world as West Coast Ivies so think a business deal happens because others approach you with a bunch of money to get your name associated with the project.
So there was never a real world business sense, to the point where they saw the conference network as primarily a vehicle to televise all Pac-12 sports to celebrate its gender diversity and Olympic athletics excellence rather than featuring football to draw ratings and make money.
It starts fpr the 24-25 yearNew Big 12 contract does not start until 2025.
KEEP POLITICS OUT OF FOOTBALL THREADS!That’s California for ya!
