Interesting discussion about an exchange between sports writer David Teel, Whit Babcock, and Carla Williams. Babcock acknowledges that VT and Virginia have been engaged in small group discussions and large group discussions about the GOR. When Teel very cleverly ask Babcock if he and Carla have had discussions with other conferences about the ACC GOR, Babcock refused to answer the question leading to speculations that there have been discussions with other conferences. There would be absolutely no reason to discuss the ACC GOR with other conferences if there wasn’t a feeling that it wouldn’t stop a school from exploring other conference options. Why waste anyone’s time if the grant of rights is really ironclad until 2036? The discussion starts at the Podcast 6 minute mark and goes to about the 11 or 12 minute mark. I have no affiliation with the Jerry Ratcliffe show.

University of Arizona AD Dave Heeke dropped a bombshell on the PAC 12 this week with comments that made it very clear, Arizona is ready to leave the PAC 12! Analysis of his comments. Video: First 5 minutes of the show I have no affiliation with The Monty Show ( out of Utah )

Arz and Kan would be interesting.

LOL.

do leave, might help solve the existing situations in other conferences. Talk is cheap, but I doubt they are going anywhere, anytime soon !

CFB: Peek Around the Corner w/Greg Flugaur Interesting and entertaining monologue. Video 10:00 minute mark to the 33:00 minute mark. Analysis of what President Ted Carter (Nebraska) said about conference realignment. I have no affiliation with Peek Around The Corner w/Greg Flugaur.

His show has quadrupled it’s audience size in the last few months. He was way ahead of the curve on the USC & UCLA move. It sounds like he is ahead of the curve on the Oregon and Washington move. Also, he could be ahead of the curve on Colorado and Arizona.
