  1. I'm so tired of all the speculation. I have no absolutely no input and it's starting to raise my anxiety levels.

     

    The best thing for me would be stop reading about it, but I feel compelled to, to stay in the loop. Talk about being between a rock and a hard place.

     

    My sympathy goes out to the remaining PAC administration's. They must be going through hell trying to figure it all out. 

     

    I guess as with everything in life, only time will tell.

  2. I believe the problem isn't rules but  a lack of interest in CFB in the West. The schools are not as interested in providing the funds it takes to have top notch facilities, budgets to recruit nationally, pay coaches especially assistants, and be able to increase stadium sizes because they don't have enough fans to fill them. That's why we have small venues.

     

    We have a lot less population (except for Cal), therefore less players, therefore less talent, therefore we don't win national titles.

     

    Oregon is the exception because of uncle Phil.

    PAC total DMA (media market) without the two schools in the LA market (5.7 million TV Homes) is 10,726,140 TV Homes

     

    DMA rankings for the following:

    If we added SDSU - San Diego:  ranks #28 with 1.065,700 TV Homes

    If we added FSU - Fresno-Visalia:  ranks #54 with 573,180 TV Homes

    If we added UNLV - Las Vegas:  ranks #40 with 757,840 TV Homes (They are a Tier 1 Research university)

     

    A SDSU/UNLV combo gives you an extra 1,823,540 TV Homes

    12 school total = 12,549,680 TV Homes

     

    Any combination of two other schools joining the PAC out of those 3 universities, the PAC would most likely lose value per university, not gain.  But SDSU does give you a footprint in the Southern Cal area for recruiting and, like you mentioned, having them on board gives young talent a chance to attend some games south of the Bay Area.

    I have supported this idea of SoCal recruiting footprint but hadn't thought about playing games there as a positive. That might be worth a little less money but I doubt the Universities see it that way as they are already behind the eight ball.
