I am curious what the revamped P12N looks like with then next media contract they'll negotiate next year. I am sure everything will be different. Regional networks will be gone, most of the network executives released, overhead greatly reduced. Equity given to the new media partner who will produce for the conference. Many other moves, including a shift to Football first, Men's Basketball second in priority. This should easily double the annual payout, while the 1st and 2nd tiers renegotiated should up the package considerably. They will not compete with the Big Ten or SEC on money and there is no way they can (nor can the ACC or Big 12).

Realignment is not in the picture. The Big 12 is not going West, and nobody is going to the unstable Big 12. The only two schools of value for realignment are Oklahoma and Texas. If either of them move it will be to the Big Ten or SEC, because that is where the money is. And the Big 12 will remain unstable, nobody willing to join, until Texas and Oklahoma sign a new GOR. That they haven't and that the money difference of the Big 12 and that of the Big Ten/SEC is looking to be north of $30m a year come 2025, has all eyes on Oklahoma's decision coming in three years. But none of this has anything to do with the Pac-12.

Big12 being unstable still a thing in 2021? There have been more complaints coming from Pac 12 presidents/ADs than in the Big12 for sometime now. They had internal squabbling over playing a 2020 season in a pandemic.

If anyone looks unstable it's the conference out west who's schools are making less than schools out in flyover country.
