You are making assumptions without knowing any of the background information. How do we know whether or not the media deal fell apart in the last few days? What if the league was not working with Oregon on key points, or could not follow through with what was agreed upon? What if GK lied to Oregon? Regardless...we will go on here... 3 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lownslowav8r No. 4 Share Posted July 27, 2023 Thinking of the Brutus-Duck post. That would indicate foreknowledge. If Colorado is gone, this just sucks. Good summary of options. Sorry about source but seems reasonable. Existential crisis time for the Pac-12 if Colorado leaves for Big 12 TROJANSWIRE.USATODAY.COM .@BuffaloesWire is covering the CU #Big12 story. We & @Ducks_Wire are wondering what George Kliavkoff will do... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have 0.00% ill will towards USC and UCLA for leaving for the B1G. It was an excellent decision for their future. I do think it's quite unfortunate that Oregon did not get asked to the party as well. As for now, I would be thrilled if Oregon and Washington accepted peanuts to go to the B1G. I would not feel sorry for the Beavers or the rest of the Pac. I do think going to the BIG-12 would be a mistake, though. I guess we could go and then bail again once the B1G comes a calling. I don't see any scenario going forward where Oregon could be the bad guy. I also think CU leaving was absolutely the correct decision for them.

Charles Fischer Author Administrator No. 7 Share Posted July 27, 2023 What a bunch of nonsense. Losing Colorado and Arizona would not be the end of the conference, as SMU is better at football than Colorado, and SDST is better at football AND basketball than Arizona. 1 3 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

latracey No. 9 Share Posted July 27, 2023 (edited) Captain Kliavkoff seems to have completely lost control of the ship and it’s every PAC 12 school for itself. It makes me wonder how close Kliavkoff truly was to closing the media rights deal; clearly, not nearly close enough. The next 24 hours promise to be interesting for we fans who hold the Conference of Champions near and dear to our hearts. I’m really hoping a way is found to save The Pac 12. It’s looking more and more like it’s going to take a real and true miracle. Edited July 27, 2023 by latracey 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
