WTF?
The PAC should survive after it eats the MWC.

Hey you little punk! You are so weak you have to bad mouth me on someone else’s post! Grow up and be a man. You 2 yr old!
I’m happy that usc and ucla don’t get the move they wanted and that Utah and asu look like fools. I wasn’t on board to move to the big 12 at first but it was the better move to make. Thank you Rick George
PAC just died.
There's a better chance they get eaten by the MWC.
Wouldn't surprise me if there's a re-branding- call it the Mountain Pacific Conference.
Out of all of this, Colorado really looks like the smart one for seeing the forest through the trees, bolting first.
That is one possibility.
Another is that the remaining four (Cal, Stanford, OSU, WSU), grab schools like Rice, Tulane, SMU, and one other to go to a PAC 8.

If I understand correctly, MWC schools moving to PAC would have to pay $34M exit feet. PAC moving to MWC wouldn't have a fee. That points to remaining PAC teams joining MWC, not the other way around.

Not really. First or fourth doesn't matter.
Assuming the four schools remaining after the dust settles are Cal, Stanford, OSU and WSU, that’s not a conference. It’s barely a pod. Stanford doesn’t need the money, so they really don’t care. Cal definitely needs the money, but they’re getting a stipend from UCLA (heh, I wonder if the amount of that stipend goes up now). WSU and OSU just got royally screwed. Maybe Uncle Phil can throw some coin at the beavers, but oh, man is WSU in a colossal world of hurt.

Former ESPN reporter. Now reporter for Action Network.
Man this thread is flying along. Quick question so that I can catch up. Why is it assumed that the two alleged yes votes were not uo and uw? Maybe they told the other schools last night that they had a plan to stay and then this am presented a hugely unbalanced rev share. Or gave them an easy out to the big later. And the others told them to screw off.
McMurphy is an actual reporter working for an actual sports News network. If he posts, it's likely been vetted.
And now that I think it over, both Charlie Murphy and Rick James could be in that picture as well. Dang.
he has sources. They have biases. He's a B12 guy. He's honest in that context.
We’re headed in the right direction. But imagine if we had been investing in football all along. It could have been Colorado in place of Oregon or Washington. Our football was so bad for so long that we’re now stuck with celebrating going back to the big 12. We will make the best of it. We’re lucky to get invited to the big 12 and scary how close we came to being in the Mountain West with WSU and Oregon Sfate. Glad we have leadership and a new direction that is gonna get us back to being a great program.
I might have to gift Fred 2 an upgrade.
We're never joining the big kids table. We're at the point now where we have to hope that we can do enough to stay afloat and be part of the group that the P2 allow to survive.
This is stupid and insane and an absolute joke. It is almost impressive how badly the NCAA ****ed up in the last 40 years.
Merger which keeps Pac playoff spot in place is the only option which works for the parties involved.
Plus the P12's A5 status which is legislated into the NCAA. I wouldn't be shocked if the MWC is dissolved soon.
