According to a rep for the conference, the separation agreements allow the two leftover members to divvy up the money that schools like UCLA, Arizona and USC earned for the conference in recent tournaments prior to their departures. This year, according to Sportico's calculations, they'll both evenly split about $15.4 million.Oregon State and Washington State themselves earned only six of the Pac-12's 43 active units, but they'll share in the spoils from a much larger haul, and that will continue for the next few years. While the Pac-12 is rebuilding around seven new members starting next season, their agreements also state the two legacy schools will continue to share units earned by the prior Pac-12 until they fully burn off in three more years.https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/other/2026-march-madness-oregon-state-and-wazzu-cash-in-despite-not-playing/ar-AA1YZGqeJust another reminder of how horrible the Judge Libey decision was.
Thursday at 06:40 PM2 days Administrator No. So are they REALLY going to steal all that money they did not earn? Mr. FishDuck
Thursday at 06:56 PM2 days No. If they're smart they will invest it into their programs and eventually leverage it into getting themselves into a real conference by showing how they take sports serious. The reality... they probably will fail to do this and find themselves stuck in irrelevancy.
Thursday at 06:56 PM2 days Author No. Well, if anyone is still wondering why the organization is still called the Pac12, instead of the Pac8, Pac9, the Pac, the Best of the Rest, etc. the NCAA unit payments on the books to the Pac12 is the answer.

But, little has been revealed about how OSU and WSU are using the bag they got from the December 2023 Judge Libey decision. Would like to see more transparency from both institutions on that.

Thursday at 07:47 PM2 days No. Yes, they won a few short term accounting battles and turned it into absolutely nothing. Classic lotto winner tale.

A state court judge's ruling should have been moved to federal court and appealed.

2 hours ago2 hr Author No. I had picked Texas. My pre-game concern was that the Zags just don't have the depth they have had in some recent years. No great picker accomplishment, just explaining my logic.We've seen the same thing affecting the Ducks in the past. Especially if you get one of your main horses in foul trouble or injured early. If you don't have depth, you can be in real trouble in a one-and-out scenario.
