So say USAFA, SDSU, CSU, SDSU, UNR, Hawaii, got a quiet wink: They could remove the exit fee, dissolve, take their fraction of the remains, ... and Boise*, UNLV**, Wyo, UNM would be screwed.
But that PAC4+6, would they get better than a $10M share media deal? Even if they invited Gonzaga? That won't feed the CaliStan beasts.
*I don't see CaliStan ever tied to Boise State.
**Maybe included to appease UNR.
They could definitely make it work. The money is there. The desire for the top half of the MW to be associated with the PAC rather than the bottom of the MW is there. The desperation is there.
What’s not there is time. There’s a part of me that thinks they could work something out by June 30th of next year, and the PAC 4 just chill out for a year as essentially Indy’s maybe with a scheduling agreement with the AAC or ACC.
It’s just an effing mess and no one that’s left in the PAC has shown they have the initiative, leadership, grasp on reality or fortitude to do what it would take.

If the bay schools leave then you have a 4 team shell (NDSU SDSU OSU WSU) you can invite new members into.

Pac 10 should take Cali Schools

How are the Cali schools going to afford the MWC buy-out and no PAC media deal to go to?
The way out of the MWC is getting a majority to either (a) eliminate buy-out, or (b) close up shop. Otherwise it's a $17-$34M poison pill to prevent defections.

Grain Belt in the garage fridge by the ginger beer and limes; Tito's for mules in the cabinet if you grabbed a ginger beer and a lime.

How much did you give NDSU athletics this year?
I dunno. A couple hundred bucks and season tickets. As if it matters.

It obviously matters. Glad you bought tickets
If people are gong to dis on the school and program for not moving up, its fair to ask how much they support the program
