Do you know how much it will cost the PAC to add those schools due to the schedule alliance between the PAC? That schedule alliance deal include a heavy penalty for each school the PAC takes from the MWC unless they take the whole MWC. Taking one to two teams would not be a problem, but taking any more than that would create a long term financial problem for the conference and schools.

I think a dark horse candidate to make a move to a rebuilt ACC, provided it doesn't implode, or perhaps the Big 12 if it goes coast to coast, is Coastal Carolina. The Chanticleers have been an outstanding mid major and could boost the status of the Carolinas depending on rivalries that survive in the never ending musical chairs of college football conferences.

Honestly I could see a lot of the teams in the airplane conferences making new conferences in 15-20 years to make them more regional again. Especially if some conferences split from the NCAA

My favorite KZreadr. Literally covers it all.

8 teams is a good start. Probably need to get to 12 or 16 to get a good TV deal though.

With a 12 team playoff i could see this as a possibility. An undefeated or 1 loss pac 12 team i could see easily finishing top 12. Boise st is no joke. Sdsu always has talent and that west coast pac 12 after dark crowd will watch.

Big East is good enough. Football drags them down too much for the other conferences

LMAO, so the Mountain West...just give it up OSU and WSU and accept realty already.

I enjoy your work A couple of things concerning San Diego State and . The THe Pac 12 did not reject San Diego State; the deal simply crashed when the Pac couldn't get a contract, they were ready to offer both SMU and San Diego State, That of course fell apart when the Pac-12 couldn't get a contrac they wanted and folded The Mountain West agreed to a $270 million media rights deal in 2020 with CBS and FOX, according to The Athletic. It would end after the 2025-26 season. Teams are scheduled to be paid $4 million per year. if I'm correct on that then there would be no fees if the Aztecs or other schools were to leave. if not it would cost them $17 million. now that would have been a hardship prior to Snapdragon. Snapdragon has been managed tremendously well and the revenue for the athletic department has gone from 65 million to 110 million and when MLS soccer comes in other revenue it is expected to reach 140-150 million year . Also as far as SDSU people boring you forget that they hired Sean Lewis and his wide open ,no huddle which he calls Aztec Fast offense. Lewis was very successful brining over some Talent at wide receiver and running back from the transfer portal and a lot of explosive players that he managed to recruit and also some excellent Offensive talent out of High school . they may struggle a little bit this year but you can be sure they'll be ready to go and fill the stadium in 25-26. Ask for the pac- 2 to putting together a conference from the Mountain West that just simply won't work. The payout is about 4. million a year from the current contract. Teams would have to Fork out 17 million dollars which means it would take them years just to recoup That investment at 7-10 million a year. Both Canzano and Wilmer have queried media people and they give an estimate of 7 to 10 million for the rights to a conference with Washington State, Oregon State and six to eight Mountain West teams. It's just not worthwhile particularly since the Mountain West is producing a lot of NCAA basketball money. Boise State would certainly not do that because they get close to 6 million dollars right now. If they had to pay out $17 million it would take them four or five years probably to recoup that. besides that they like their position of being the power in a small conference. OSU and WAZZU have a lot more than 65 million in total have 250 million between them but they're not going to spend that they're going to be Pennywise a nd pound Foolish, holding on as much as they can to it. In the long run as far as the Mountain West is concerned they're three teams that will probably be perennial at the top San Diego State, Boise State and UNLV( has finally come of age doing extremely well recruiting and I think will be be one of the three powers soon). Fresno State has a great coach but he has health issues stadium is a total mess and they keep trying to get money for it it can't do it. it's already taking a hit in recruitment. The Big 12 wants to expand but not West and might take in some of the Have Nots from the ACC if the ACC goes Belly Up. If the ACC were to lose four or five teams then it would make sense for them to look West and have fun Pac to Atlantic conference,. I can see that happening if they added Washington State, Oregon State, and San Diego State to Cal Stanford and SMU they would have a good Western Division and Eastern Division.

EAST: Syracuse, Boston College, UConn, Duke, Wake Forest, Georgia Tech, USF. WEST: Tulane, SMU, SDSU, Cal, Stanford, Oregon State, Washington State.

Idk why they just didn’t take the 8 best schools from the MW and bring them into the PAC and rebrand back to being the PAC 10. That way they could have still had the Power 5 designation. Now I’m not so sure they will have that status. Just a weird situation.

Because the PAC commissioner wanted the same amount of money for the conference without USC and UCLA. Problem was that over 40% of the conference revenue and market share was generated by those two schools alone. Also, the existing members didn’t want any MWC schools because of their academics and branding. Basically, PAC schools were a bunch of elitists that kept getting in their own way. Adding 2-4 MWC schools probably could have kept them together post-USC/UCLA, but guess we’ll never know.

@@Pepisthe1they (the PAC crappy idiots of the 2 remaining members) have already been voted out of having Autonomy/Power Status. They cannot regain it. If the AAC who lost less schools and retained more and added more before being voted out of Autonomy and busted their asses to be the best G5/Non Autonomy Conference the past 11 years plus and unable to get Power/Autonomy Status back! Then there is no way the PAC can get back in power status. No former schools of the 10 are coming back, and the PAC can’t afford to raid any of the other schools from the Non Autonomy Conferences because of costs and fees and penalties among other issues. The Democrats of the PAC have ruined their conference just like this country. That’s truth. Furthermore, the ACC is not going to be like the PAC but be more like the Big12. They will add schools because have 8 or more remaining members plus the three new ones and Notre Dame influencers and thus retain Autonomy Status. The ACC will maybe even see a slight increase in revenue like Big12 did; once it was settled on when schools were leaving. Although not exactly how it unfolded with the Big12 Conference getting a slight increase from previous media contracts, is close enough. That means the possibility of both WazzU and OzzU, as I call them, being added as last two true remaining power/autonomy schools along with maybe 1-3 MWC schools to complete the western wing of ACC is pretty likely. There are at least two to three Gulf Coast schools that will be added and final adds along the Eastern Coast will happen to keep the ACC anywhere from 16 all-sports schools to 20 schools with Notre Dame being in for all sports still except football and men’s and women’s ice hockey. People keep saying that the PAC is a 108 year old conference, but it is not. It is more like 58 years old not 108. Could they rebuild the PAC? Maybe but will not be able to lure the best Non Autonomy schools from across America because financial expenditures and no monetary gain in short term or long term growth benefit. So the three options are: 1) full reversal merger with the MWC and possibly making Hawaii a full member if plausible. 2.) join the MWC and still operate as Autonomous Schools even though both are now in an Non-autonomous positioned conference and waiting for call up from either ACC or Big12. 3.) do exactly what Hawaii is doing as basically football only members in MWC and keep other sports in other conferences and again watch and wait for a call up to a P4.

@michaelwall3393

They have already lost power status. Also they don’t have the War Chest and money to raid any G5 conferences. They either full reverse merger; which the MWC is a more efficient viable and valuable name and conference, or they create an Olympic sports only conference with PAC name and intent to become a FBS conference by 2026 with this season and 2025 in MWC for football only in schedule agreement like they have. The FCS schools they want to compete as FBS in the rebuild PAC begins the process come January 2025 announcement, thus the 150 million dollars in NCAA money they retain but have to pay back some of the 65 million dollars a piece each PAC-2 school got in settlement to the other ten former PAC12 schools because just missed the deadline. But if any of the above were to happen, should have been on the ball about it already.
