"As bleak as things looked for the league late Thursday, numerous sources express optimism that the Pac 12 can halt most or even all defections and push forward together with the Apple deal."

 

"So many moving parts and uncertainties, but like a great summer blockbuster, this story may not be over."

This is a head scratcher.  Why would you do this?  It seems like the Big Ten is willing to take care of traveling cost by upping it  to 40m.

 

Oregon, Washington to Big Ten has become 'coin toss' as Pac-12 makes last attempt to salvage league

The Pac-12 is meeting Friday morning as optimism grows that the league could stay together

The chances of Oregon and Washington joining the Big Ten has now been termed a "coin toss" sources told CBS Sports on Friday morning. Following an evening filled with uncertainty, at least one of those two programs is wavering with a move out of the Pac-12 -- seemingly over financial reasons. 

 

CBS Sports learned Thursday night that Washington had concerns over additional travel costs the athletic program would face in journeying to Big Ten locations. Those increased financial obligations could total more than $10 million per year for the university, sources say.

Mixed messages all the way.   Local radio here was leaning towards PAC staying together.

Please tell me the Piled Higher & Deeper knuckleheads aren't going to just postpone the inevitable! As much as I wanted the PAC to stay together, it makes no sense to be on a streaming- only service. I won't subscribe. How

 

did the DirectTV thing go? So, the PAC stays together for another 5-7 years, then what? If they split now, they will make more money and not fall further behind, even if you only get partial shares for awhile. Damn mutts, they

 

had to start whining about not getting enough money. If this thing falls apart and the conference lags behind financially and eventually collapses, every president should be tossed and lose their fat pensions that the people of

 

each state pay!

Finally!  Oregon is using some leverage, some bargaining power between the B1G and the Pac-12!

Nice to see Ducks are bowing up to get best deal they can. Can't see how Oregon would want to stay in a glorified MW.

Negotiations are never fun........but the Ducks are right where they should be......bet Knight is guiding them.....and who is better than him. 

The BIG needs to stop being cheap and understand they need Seattle, Portland and the Bay Area.

Pac-12 meeting ends without new Grant of Rights deal as Oregon future is in focus, per reports

 

What began as an optimistic morning for the future of the Pac-12 has left the conference back to the same place it was earlier this week: Waiting on Oregon, and possibly Washington, to make a decision.

 

The Pac-12 couldn’t close a Grant of Rights deal during a meeting of university leaders on Friday morning, and the “fate of league likely rests on if Oregon can make a deal with the Big Ten. There is hesitancy among many in Big Ten about logistics of 18 team league, travel to Eugene,” Dan Wetzel of Yahoo Sports reported.

What began as an optimistic morning suddenly changed.

I'm going to go with no ... 

 

It does give some insight into the travel costs if the B1G and unless those issues are addressed the programs can't function.
