Tell me.........
specifically how you believe the timeline doesn't support/fit the collusion to bring down the PAC. I believe it to be a pretty good fit. Also, as I have said before, for the plan to work they banked upon the arrogance and stupidity of PAC 12 leadership. I think there are far too many convenient coincidences for all of it to have been unplanned.
I do not believe the Big 12 is in collusion with ESPN/FOX to bring down the ACC. That does not mean Yormark is not an observant opportunist and having done it once, familiar with how to disrupt to his benefit.
One additional clarification. I am not saying how things turned out was the original plan but, I believe it was a plan adapted and modified due to changes in circumstances.
