USC/UCLA leaving Pac12 for Big10?

[WiscoBird]

If anyone could do it, it's Stanford. They have the richest alum base and largest endowment of any university in the country that participates in major college sports, and by a wide margin at that. They won't miss a year or two of TV money.

Stanford can, we can't. We are closer to WSU/OSU than we are to Stanford.

Notre Dame really seems to want "Calford" in the ACC, but they don't have interest themselves?

Happy two-year anniversary to the mighty and forward-looking Alliance, everyone.

Looks like Calford and $MU will be joining the ACC after all.

ACC adds Stanford, Cal, SMU beginning 2024-25

The ACC presidents and chancellors voted to add three schools -- Stanford, Cal and SMU -- beginning in the 2024-25 school year. It will bring the ACC to 18 members, with 17 playing football full time in the conference.

All of this is a travesty.

The B1G conference schedule is out. UW and UO have “protected rivalries” with each other, but not with the LA schools. Some of those schedules look brutal. I am sad that ASU is being left behind, in a sense, but there will be some great games to watch next year.

ASU is basically just Boise State without a really good run in its recent history.

Get ready for the next round.

Florida St is petitioning to leave the ACC and will pay around $130m to do so. I wonder, if successful, where they will land. Do they already have a landing spot agreed to?

This means at least one more tan will make a jump somewhere you think

And to think they turned down the SEC in the early 90s thanks to Bobby Bowden.

I don’t remember that. Interesting

It will be interesting to see where the settlement falls, but the actual exit cost according to the GOR (Grant of Rights) is reportedly well north of a half-billion dollars. This includes the $130 million fee and the forfeiture of revenues from whichever conference the school ends up in. FSU disagrees with whether the GOR is binding, and the two parties will now fight it out in the courts.

Yes. He thought it would too hard to win a national championship in the SEC.
