Too many people are assuming they will go way beyond 16 schools.....

all the way up to 24. I have said this many times and it bears repating. Are we sure there are 16 teams left that if add t to a conference will actually increase the tv revenue enough to ensure the current members don't have to take a pay cut on their yearly payout? And i will say t again, there is a reason oregon and washington have not been invited to the big 10. It makes no sense NOT to add members, no matter who you are "waiting for" if they bring every current member more money. there is no need towait and risk them going somewhere else to benefit that confernce. I have a hard time seeing that.

Yep even Notre Dame is far behind on TV money as an Independent.**
