That's just media bias. There is plenty of value in having a (hypothetical)

22 team Big 12 that spans coast to coast with teams in AZ, CO, CA, TX, etc. There are a lot of people, a lot of markets, and a lot of fan bases for those marketing dollars. And many of those "leftovers" actually perform equal to or above many of the P2 members each year. Yes the money is different and teams would be hard pressed to catch the top of the P2. But otherwise the B12 should easily be able to maintain competitiveness as a power conference.

I hope he's gone. He's working for them now imo.

My bold prediction, ACC lives on by going really old school
HokieAl • 03/15/23 07:52 PM ET
How does adding the leftovers that P2 doesn't want make a power conf?

Did you forget that the media pays the bills?

Don't agree, but I guess it's a definition of a power conference
Vienna_Hokie • 03/17/23 11:26 AM ET
ACC needs Elon Musk or Jeff Bezos to run the conference and...
Old Line Hokie • 03/15/23 04:05 PM ET
At this point, ACC should get an ESPN producer to run the league
Roanokie • 03/16/23 08:59 AM ET
With our luck, we would get Zuckerberg who wants to put all ACC games...
EDGEMAN • 03/15/23 10:09 PM ET

Bezos would work in spades. Musk would tweet the ACC into oblivion. And

Compared to whom? He chose Phillips from a list of one. I'll bet the field.**
