It is being reported that the Pac-12 is not having any success finding a viable media deal. Multiple reports are that it will be similar to the MWC money. Reports are a merger could could net north of $10-15 million per team. Without the Pac is looking at $8 million tops but probably less.

Ego would never get in the way of money, would it?

Not when the payoff isn't worth the scheming and those doing the scheming are led by a commissioner who is incompetent. 

Classic case of not being mad that you cheated but being mad you were dumb enough to get caught.

The PAC failing to kill the MWC outright is a sign of weakness. 🤣

Whatever those reports say will be used as evidence for the economic damages justifying the penalties.  Ouch.  One could argue $141 million doesn’t cover the damages. 
 

$9MM per team delta x 6 years = $54MM x whatever number of teams > $141MM

If your conference media rights is less than ONE BIG teams' payouts annually, that is not a good formula. Something have to done. About damn time someone make some sense.

Just have everybody come back except OSU/WSU, they started this shit show, let them figure it out on their own. Oh yeah, , might as well leave SDSU out because Spaztecs is such an annoying little peckerhead also.

Personally, I want every school. Especially OSU and WSU. Whomever the champion is will truly be a true G5 champion.  This group could become another Power conference, too. Like the old Big East conference in basketball.

It's been pretty clear to some of us. Has nothing to do with there being better teams in the Pac, but the calculus for a big TV deal just doesn't math. Both conferences are filling a niche role of late night western time slots with games that are watched predominantly by our respective small market team fans and degenerate gamblers.

The only national brand in either conference is Boise football. SDSU and Gonzaga hoops, but nobody cares about basketball. 

And that doesn't even factor in the speculation that Gloria is well respected across multiple stakeholders and that Teresa Gould is incompetent and not. 

So the answer remains what it has been since the first fucking day all of this happened. 

1.) Reverse Merger

2.) Assurances from the lower tier teams on agreed upon improvements with reasonable timelines and benchmarks. 

3.) No confidence vote and tell Teresa Gould to get the fuck out. 

4.) Negotiate what will probably be a 10-11 million dollar television deal. 

5.) Enjoy a regionally relevant football conference with traditional rivalries 

6.) Enjoy an absolute kick ass hoops conference.

If this is true, and I hope to hell it is, it going to get real fun around here. I'm going to invest in an industrial size popcorn popper and settle in. My popcorn will be salted with the tears of the arrogant traitorous 5. The best part of all this is those clowns really believed jumping ship to a conference run by the same people who destroyed it was going to be a great move. Please let this happen. The fallout will be glorious!!

Same. Those three can stay PAC 3 and feel superior.

If Memphis and the Gang stay put, a merger makes total sense.  A lot of wasted time for what should have happened first.  And yes, the two Pac-12 orphans need to be a part of it.  They fit.

Yeah full merger…right. In the past decade we’ve had 2 schools pissing and moaning and looking for a way out no matter what the damage to the conference. With a full merger there will then be 4. While business might say a full merger is the best possible move things cannot continue with business as usual from the past. No sweetheart deals for anyone. Gloria remains as the new commissioner. Now we all know that those terms would be untenable for at least 4 members of the nPAC. The same things that destroyed the PAC cannot be continued in a new merger. JMHO

No merger will ever happen at this point with the schools MW has added. I could see Nevada, UNLV, New Mexico being added depending on how settlements go. What I've been hearing from the USU board of directors is that the conversations are going good and they expect 10-12 with the upside of 15 Million per year. Expect to see Pac have at least double if not more than the MW TV Revenue.

Memphis and Tulane aren't going the sinking ship that is the Pac. They know they're better off where they are at the moment. Why move to a conference run by the same incompetent idiots who destroyed it?
