I've seen nothing to suggest the b12 had any interest in the Pac 4.

The proposal to merge was made and was shot down by the b12. The b12 always said its focus was the 4C.....and they achieved that. The day after adding them Big 12 officials were quoted as saying, "we're done". ** Edited by xx97 at 9/1/2023, 6:16:02 PM

I agree that the b12 and acc have more in common than not

....but BYU, UCF, Cincinnati, Houston, Utah, Arizona, Arizona State, and Colorado >>>>>>>>> SMU, California, and Stanford.

Nothing personal. Just having fun with realignment.

Just expressing the way I've seen it. The B12 did reject a full Pac merger. This has been documented.

Says who?

SMU lobbed the 9 years, zero dollar offer at the B12 long before the ACC. This was reported today. REJECTED.

Huh?

Your analogy makes no sense. Not sure you realize who Baghdad Bob was.

B12 rejects are now official ACC members!

Conference #4 making a splash by beating out the MWC and AAC for these stellar, coveted universities!

The NEW media deal gives the b12 a raise

That is the bulk of conference revenue distribution. The rest comes from CFP playoff, NCAAT credits, bowl games, and other revenues. OUT won't move the needle on that.

Better source here

Big 12 distributed $42 to $45 million per school last fiscal year. ACC only $37 to $41 million per school. Big 12 is also getting a raise in their next TV deal which goes into effect next year. ACC is stuck with current deal through 2036. Big 12 will also be on deck to negotiate in 2030 for another big boost. Dollars matter. Propaganda doesn't. ** Edited by xx97 at 8/29/2023, 7:22:44 PM ** Edited by xx97 at 8/29/2023, 7:23:08 PM

No cares what VT did 25 years ago.

B12 is superior.....as evidenced by the ulmighty dollar. The real measure!

It's not $5 million per school. Cal and Stanford aren't taking 0 shares.

Per the article: "The ACC would stand to earn about $72 million in new money with the three expansion shares. Cal and Stanford have agreed to each take about 30% of the $24 million share, or roughly $7-10 million. After Cal and Stanford’s share and travel costs are off-set (roughly $1-2 million per school), the ACC stands to earn at least $30 million in revenue to re-distribute" So, it's closer to $30 million overall.....or about $2 million per school. Even if we assume it's $45 million (and it won't be more than that after Stanford and Cal's cuts and all travel costs are absorbed) then that just $3 million more per school.

Tapping out now?

I've answered all of your questions. Stanford is dilutive to the B12's brand. Now I'll ask you the same question? Why did the BIG not take Stanford up on the $0 offer either? You seem frightened of the answer. Owning you was way too easy! ** Edited by xx97 at 8/22/2023, 2:03:04 PM

Then feel free to answer

Why don't conferences add schools all the time for zero distribution ? Specifically, why would the B10 and B12 not consider it?

Once again, I'll ask you. Why is no one else adding Stanford?

You keep avoiding the monkey in the room. Stanford would offer the Big Ten zero as well we presume? Why is the Big Ten, like the B12, not interested in that? Only the MWC, AAC, and ACC are considering Stanford and Cal. That's it. The top 3 conferences have not.

WTH?

Of course schools can be dilutive with no share. Eventually they WILL get a share. That's a temporary fixture. By your logic, any school that offers no share should be invited. Many would do that. The fact there is a down the road time period that must be accounted for and the current brand eroding the quality of the league's play. LOL. SMU, as well, would take a zero share AND their left nut. They aren't getting in. Guy, the B12 saying "We're done. We're not doing anything" is not Stanford rejecting anything.

Who says they didn't? Offering a hot girl $500 doesn't mean she's going

bang you. Wake up. The B12 said "we're done". There is no one left of value out there. Stanford would be dilutive at any share.
