No article or research here, just pretty much the question, and a couple follow-up questions.
Could it be done? How would it affect the SEC and the upcoming new Big 10?

I'm with the East to West being easier. I've had the worst jet lag going from Oregon to CT.

I can't speak for all of New Hampshire, but I grew up in CT, and I can tell you CK's personality does not represent most of New England!

Pac-12/Big 12 Merger: The National Athletic Conference

Thing is, the PAC probably would want to add a couple California schools (for TV ratings).
Of course, they could be added to the above list for a conference of 18 with 9 in each division. Or find a couple more schools and have 20/10.

4-star point guard Amari Whiting decommits from Oregon women’s basketball
WWW.OREGONLIVE.COMFour-star point guard Amari Whiting, who committed to UO on Nov. 1 of last year, flipped her commitment to BYU, where her mother...
Her mother was recently named Women's Basketball Head Coach at Brigham Young University. It's a reasonable outcome?
That could certainly explain it.

"In terms of USC's program, Banuelos has been impressed by how quickly Lincoln Riley has turned the Trojans into a Pac-12 - and possibly national - contender."
Remind me--what is USC's record since Riley took over?

The Big 10 may figure that having Stanford would lure in ND, since they have a long history of playing each other.

Sounds as if there will be a lot of penalties called until players get used to the rule changes. These changes might make the game safer, but every penalty called also makes the game longer.

If we partner with the ACC thru ESPN how many east coasters will be awake to watch the Beavers play the Tarheels or WF play Arizona with a 10:30 est kickoff?
....
We can hope that with any games against teams on the East Coast (or Midwest) that ESPN would schedule them for times that better suit those areas--and we'd have fewer night games because of that!

I don't even stay up to watch the PAC night games unless the Ducks are playing.

I've always said I wouldn't want to be married to a football coach, since they are never home.
But I remember one time, I think when Rich Brooks was head coach, that the families of the coaches came to each practice for 20 minutes to interact with the coaching, and I also think they had Thursday evenings off, and Sunday mornings off--except for Brooks, who filmed the coach show on Sunday morning.

Unless state/federal money is being pulled, I don't see why UCLA would not go to the B1G TEN. We are talking 40-60 million more per year. That is a lot of money, even if half of it is eaten up by travel costs.
Grant money might be a factor. Professors, especially in the sciences, can pull in pretty good money with grants, and I'm guessing that the $100 million from the Big 10 would go to the athletic department only?

This does not apply anyone at FishDuck, but I have certainly encountered such folks at Autzen!
(I remember long ago Rich Brooks saying that there were people who sat in the stands behind the team who tried to send him plays they thought he should put into the game.)

... What did they do in high school, how many siblings, passions, hobbies. We have some amazing student athletes, who are people too.
That's the sort of thing we often ask at Daisy Ducks when we're lucky enough to have student athletes come with their coaches as guest speakers.

"...Who bothers to warn people about swimming? It’s not on the list of things we warn them about.”
There were other Ducks who died in a water incident. Basketball player Jesse Nash, who drowned while inner tubing on the Willamette River several years ago. And in 2013 Alex James Rovello died as a result of a diving accident at Tamolitch Falls.
Though one never knows how much a young person will listen, I think every new student athlete--heck, every new student--should be told about the dangers of swimming/inner-tubing/diving into the waters in Oregon.
It is sad when anyone leaves this Earth, but more so when it is someone young and all their potential goes with them.

Should the PAC-12, Big 12, and ACC Combine into One Super-Duper Conference?
in Our Beloved Ducks
Posted
What if all 35 teams (that, I think, would be the number after USC and Ucla leave the Pac-12, and Big 12 without TX and OK) are one Super-Duper Conference? Divide it up with sub-conferences and divisions?
