B12 expressed interest before USCLA departed. Until

then, SDSU in the PAC was just a pipe dream, and the B12 in it's new form has/had them on their radar. The B12 has kept files on schools, like UCF, USF, Cincy, Houston, Memphis, SMU, UCONN, and a few others for a while, ever since A&M and Missouri left. SDSU is one of those schools. At the time, Texas was still in the B12, and nixed all of them, and is one of the reasons the B12 remained at 10 for years. Texas was only interested in adding P5 schools moving forward, but the B12 at the time, even with Texas and Oklahoma, there weren't any on the board, especially since the ACC signed such a long GOR. If you guys remember, with Texas and Oklahoma in the conference, teams like FSU and Clemson were talked about, but our uneven distributions with Texas negated any type of media deal that would have brought them over. After OUT announced leaving for the SEC, talk of adding any P5 university went out the window, but there were schools that added value - and they added them. The fact that the PAC is in such a predicament, and the B12 has a stable contract, are the only reasons the B12 could even think of adding P5 schools, especially from the PAC. No one, and i mean, no one saw the USCLA BIG thing coming. they also have a file on Fresno State, UNLV, and if the PAC comes out of all of this alive, There is a very real chance that the B12 adds 2 more, as has been reported. If any of the PAC schools become available, all bets are off the table, as any of them. or any P5 school brings more value then the G5 schools that the 12 has files on. We are in uncharted waters, and the PAC is currently in a **** show, so everything is on the board for now.

Pac-10. Get it right!
EDGEMAN 07/01/23 07:18 AM ET
So Big12 has 13, Big10 has 16, PAC12 has 10? MWC should change to PAC16
Vienna_Hokie 07/03/23 05:37 PM ET
The Big 10 earned their B1X name many years ago...lol**

Never put a number in your name, unless it is the MAG7.
Truthahn 07/01/23 10:52 AM ET
Even the Mag should have been 8 to get to a majority, I’d stick w/ no #’s
Stech 07/02/23 10:15 AM ET
I've been calling them PAC-10 since the news of the B1X gutting them**
EDGEMAN 07/01/23 11:29 AM ET
I wonder what value they would add to the Big XII?
Maroon Baboon 07/01/23 05:05 AM ET
I think it is smarter for the B12 to wait out the PAC.
Truthahn 07/01/23 10:59 AM ET
The B12.........
2hhoop3 07/01/23 11:18 AM ET
The contract, whatever it is, was formally ratified as of today. **
Big12 guy 07/01/23 12:34 PM ET
Whatever it is.........
2hhoop3 07/01/23 12:50 PM ET
Hope you are just as critical of the Pac
HouClone 07/01/23 08:38 PM ET
I will call the deal for.......
2hhoop3 07/01/23 08:48 PM ET
Will do. But please note we haven't seen the fine details of the Big 10
HouClone 07/01/23 10:58 PM ET
You've made that statement.....
2hhoop3 07/01/23 11:14 PM ET
Yeah, I looked then and saw the same details of the Big 12 contract
HouClone 07/02/23 12:36 AM ET

Big12 guy 07/01/23 10:44 PM ET
Just like pretty much every thing else.....
2hhoop3 07/01/23 11:10 PM ET
Clearly you think the reported numbers are false. Just asking,
Big12 guy 07/01/23 01:25 PM ET
One either believes that
WBGV 07/03/23 05:35 PM ET
It is a fair question.....

Now you have my attention, as you stated
Big12 guy 07/01/23 03:00 PM ET
Who said anything.....
2hhoop3 07/01/23 03:18 PM ET
Big 12 doesn't want San Diego State. Too far away, small fan base, lukewarm

Seems like SDSU got the rug pulled out from under them by
WBGV 06/30/23 07:00 PM ET
A deal isn't coming until the conference stabilizes. **
EDGEMAN 07/01/23 07:20 AM ET
Interesting, I thought the ACC would want that market in the merger…
