The opportunities to be in a legit power conference are dwindling. Whatever happens to the Pac, it’s going to end up a shell of itself. The same fate will befall the ACC once the door opens with the GoR. If you’re in the AAC or MWC and don’t hop on a lifeboat really soon, you’d best get used to looking at the schools you’re already looking at, because even your best outcome is just going to be most of them tagging along when you make your move because the conference you’re going to just got carpet bombed.
