So, I guess we might move up to #3.

 

Updated P5 Payout Estimates - Assuming a 12-Team CFP Expansion | Navigate

NVGT.COM

---

Navigate publishes updated P5 Payout Estimates assuming a 12-team CFP. See where the SEC, Big Ten, Pac-12, Big 12, and ACC fall in the coming years.

 

 

Seen this, not good. If the B12 and Pac-12 are not exploring a merger and the value of combined media rights, plus turning the P5 into a P4 something is simply wrong.

 

How as currently constituted is the Pac-12 Network supposed to become relevant and solvent?

Jon, only those with extreme academic prowess and massive egos will keep a terminally ill sports network on life support.

 

Everytime a golden oppoetunity arises these ego driven know it alls pass on it. Perhaps our educators dont, cant or wont recognize opportunity. Professional do nothing educators are rarely business minded forward thinkers. They are normally traditionalists.

 

If you cannot recognize its time to make out of the box decisions then pull the plug and hold the funeral.

 

The board members and trustees need to send out 12 pink slips or appoint snd create a Dean of Sports position. Bring in a successful business person to work with other Dean of Sports. With the goal of growing a sports based revenue stream for the schools. A 21st century plan to be a big time leading conference.

Great and spot on take.

 

I hope Oregon is not going to blindly throw in its future media rights to the conference. Find out the floor and ceiling and BTW, find out if there is a cogent plan to salvage Larry's Loser Network. 

 

I'd love to know where Schill came down on the decision not to expand?

Absolutely. Oregon has to adopt the SEC mindset and do what is best for Oregon! Tying itself to a conference where many teams don't care, and/or can't compete at the highest level, won't work now.
