    It's incredibly hard to get a read on PAC 2 intentions, because they're still battling for control of the conference.

    Feels like minimally they will stay long enough to get control and financial payouts.
    There's a chance they still try to poach MWC/AAC teams to rebuild and become a best of the rest conference.
    PAC has at least a two year period they can use to rebuild, if they can find teams to join them.

    IF they pull that rebuild off, the rest of G5 is screwed on CFP bids, imo.
    I think the G5 agreeing to the 5+7 format was premature, and stupid. But guess the P4 have voting power and call the shots.

    The other option for WSU/OSU is they just cash out on PAC assets, then join MWC. Feels 50/50 to me which way this goes.

    The only think worse than black uniforms unless it's one of your school colors is all grey like Ohio State or the Detroit Lions.
    It's OK to not be OK.

    When you play football, you gotta like the taste of blood, And 50 percent of the time, it's your blood.

    You don't give out trophies for losing. Trophies for sucking. That's a communist idea. You don't get a trophy for losing. You get a piece of pizza and you shut up. Trophies for losing? What the hell happened to us?

    Texas A&M just spent $76.8m to buyout Jimbo. Crazy money is spent in FBS.

    Lol, NDSU, by comparison won’t buyout Entz for pennies.

    When Michigan hired Harbaugh, donor gave $50 million for a coaches endowment to cover the amount above the state payment.

    Some details on boosters paying Jimbo's buyout.

    Vigen's name may be mentioned for that job.
    North Dakota State, a football team the big boys of college football should avoid like the plague, helped christen a $90 million renovation to Snyder Family Stadium — including a statue of famed Kansas State coach Bill Snyder himself — by taking a sledgehammer to the place.

    Even with a better media deal, imagine trying to compete with a school that spends more money paying someone not to coach than your entire athletic budget.
    It's OK to not be OK.
