Instead of leaving the Pac-12, or the Big Ten raiding the Pac-12, or whatever....

They should just solve the problem that makes the Pac-12 want out in one simple move: A Big Ten/Pac-12 business operations merger. Be two conferences, but one business operation.

In other words: The Big Ten/Pac-12 Network.

That's why the Pac-12 members are unhappy. The TV dollars just aren't there for them with Pac-12 Network because it can barely get any carriage anywhere but the seven states they exist in.

That would be a pretty big mooooooove

This Flugar guy is the only person worse than the Dude of WVU. He talks to himself and claims its a source.

A little common sense folks…..

Is some nobody from nowhere Minnesota going to scoop everyone in country on a college football story?

I'm sure David will milk this ruuuumor for all it's worth, and also find a way to get Boise into the Pac 12.

The PAC 12 needs to add two teams: San Diego State and Fresno State. Another possibility would be San Diego State and UNLV.

Mike Bohn has long made known is dissatisfaction with the status quo in the Pac 12 and USC's departure is significant because they wouldn't be going alone.

Time will tell on whether the smoke becomes an inferno.

The dominoes that this could trigger could lead other Pac 12 teams to seek homes elsewhere.

The Pac 12 is disadvantaged by geography (timezone, Eastern Media, etc), and USC could make a lot more money in the B1G.

The fact that this is coming from Flugaur tells you all you need to know. Nothing to see here, folks. Move along.

This thread should have been titled "Breaking Rumor"

Eventually the Pac 12 will look like this.

Washington State
Oregon State
San Diego State
Boise State
Fresno State
UNLV
Nevada
Hawaii
Utah State
New Mexico
New Mexico State
Wyoming

Nothing makes a news source more legit than sitting in a a car in a parking lot filming yourself with a cell phone.

It has to be all or nothing with some B1G West schools moving over and the B1G possibly adding more at a certain date.

The Rose Bowl has been dead since the BCS entered the picture. It’s long past time accept it.

Where did Utah, Colorado, the Arizona’s, and Cal go? Is the B1G picking up eight teams in this scenario?

I’d agree, but don’t tell Frank or the other B1G biased posters here.

I would lean more towards...
Hawaii
Boise State
...for non-CA schools

The only sports that should only be tied together via sports conferences are men's football and men's basketball...regionalize the rest.

I have no interest in sending the UC women's volleyball team or men's golf team to Provo, Utah or wherever the hell BYU is. NIL is already here, let's stop pretending that anything else matters except for maximizing revenue.

It would be a great move on both sides financially if USC were to join the B1G along with the rest of the PAC-12 elite schools in football and basketball. Just leave the rest of the sports programs behind.

It sounds delusional just like the rest of this thread.
