Doubt the Big10 let USC tell them anything

More likely big 10 knows oregon and washington do not actually benefit them at "full price". Offer them a lower amount and see if they bite. If they do, it's probably good business, If they say no, wait to see if PAC12 will actually stay together. If schools leave the PAC12, oregon and wasington will have no choice but to take the big 10 "offer". this has noting to do with usc, but with money.

I wonder if we see a ACC - PAC 9 merger?
hokieZ71 08/04/23 10:19 AM ET
I believe people would.......

I guess this is a concern for Stanford**

I think it is a concern......
2hhoop3 08/04/23 05:38 PM ET
No, I doubt it

This would have worked before USC and UCLA left.
wwhokie1 08/04/23 12:57 PM ET
The math does not even come close to working, no value to ACC

Pac 9 with a GOR is a different ballgame
Colonel Jessup 08/04/23 12:48 PM ET
How would that work?
Vienna_Hokie 08/04/23 01:27 PM ET
You are assuming ESPN will not step up the money with the APAC merger, not
Stech 08/04/23 12:02 PM ET
I just addressed that below. We aren’t consuming the Pac9. We are merging**
hokieZ71 08/04/23 10:58 AM ET
OK, even assuming the base is current payouts, which seems unrealistic
Vienna_Hokie 08/04/23 11:55 AM ET
PAC 12 viewership was fine. They just don’t have an eastern time slot.
hokieZ71 08/04/23 12:00 PM ET
ACC/PAC would need to fork over $864M to keep the status quo
Victor Tango 08/04/23 10:43 AM ET
No a merger doesn’t mean the Pac9 gets what we get.
hokieZ71 08/04/23 10:51 AM ET
Instead of a merger, how about an alliance?
EDGEMAN 08/04/23 11:13 AM ET
Lol, nice pull. Nah it’d have to be something more tangible.**
hokieZ71 08/04/23 11:24 AM ET
I'd rather not lose the money we get now.**
EDGEMAN 08/04/23 11:27 AM ET
I'd like to see it be just TV if that is what you mean.
Truthahn 08/04/23 11:06 AM ET
Doubtful, since UW and Oregon have put on the knee pads for a B1X invite
EDGEMAN 08/04/23 10:31 AM ET
Nah I don’t think that’s going to happen until 2030
hokieZ71 08/04/23 10:37 AM ET
aTm didn't want Big-TX in the SEC, but big conferences tell their members..
EDGEMAN 08/04/23 10:59 AM ET
It's funny - aTm assisted in this stupid destruction of college football
VPI_1998 08/04/23 12:50 PM ET
They'll always be little brother. LOL.**

By the way USC controls LA not the Big Ten.

vtka93 08/04/23 11:14 AM ET
USC is money. That 7B contract has USC’s prints all on it.
hokieZ71 08/04/23 11:27 AM ET
Texas rolled up like 14 years later too**
hokieZ71 08/04/23 11:03 AM ET
Nope, seems they weren't willing to bend over 1/2 way**
