Part a; At some point between 2 & 3 I remembered the sordid history of how the PCC shed OSU, WSU and UO to become the AAWU in ‘59…then finally the PAC 8, in 1964. Basically the bigs cheated, got busted…quit and formed their own lil’ conference of cheaters….leaving Oregon and Oregon State in independent purgatory…which took the Rich Brooks tenure to recover from.. Conclusion- “Screw the Pac-whatever”
part b: the west coast conference made sense in 1915 because we were geographically isolated in the late fall and early winter as travel was restrictive unless going north-south. God bless the turbofan engine…that isn’t the case now. We’ve just been self isolating by time zone. Time to end it!
part c…the Big 1G media and aggregate fan base have NO CLUE what they just let in…lolz
