SEC expansion speed bump
The efforts from Texas and Oklahoma to leave the Big 12 and join the SEC ahead of schedule have stalled and reached a “breaking point,” Matt Fortuna reports. The schools are contractually slated to join the SEC in 2025-26 but have been attempting to move that start date up one year.
The stalemate comes after weeks of negotiations between the schools, TV partners (ESPN and Fox) and the Big 12. It appears the Big 12 could be heading for an awkward two years with 14 teams.

Their TV contract says that adding G5 teams wont increase payments. They are only looking to pick off some PAC schools.golfnut69 wrote: ↑Fri Feb 10, 2023 3:30 pm Big12 looking to expand once UT and OU head east

Oddly the MWC might be the big winner out of this round of re-alignment. AAC really screwed the pooch by not securing Air Force and Colorado State.
Instead of grabbing UNT and Charlotte. Could've ended up with a western flank of CSU, Air Force, UTSA, Rice, Tulsa. That might've been good enough to convince the leftover PAC schools like Washington State and Oregon State to join AAC instead of MWC at the end of all this.

Funny how that article points out that Oregon is CURRENTLY one of the top dogs in the PAC 12, along with USC. Yet some posters here claim that Stanford, Cal and UW will be the top dogs when USC and UCLA leave. Oregon is by a wide margin the remaining prize jewel of the PAC 12.

I would say UW is up there with Oregon as the top dog. They don't have Oregon's money, but they have championship tradition and pedigree. They won't be left behind if Oregon leaves. But Oregon isn't a blue blood program to lead a new conference like USC, OU, and Texas. They're a good program, but not a blue blood. UW is closer to being a blue blood than Oregon.DfromCT wrote: ↑Tue Feb 14, 2023 7:42 pmFunny how that article points out that Oregon is CURRENTLY one of the top dogs in the PAC 12, along with USC.

That "long term " ACC media deal does not look so good now, and the people at Florida State are upset...

I can't believe anyone would sign such a long term deal. With the dynamics of realignment, 2036 is an eternity. Hopefully, the whole contract blows up and it provides us a path to get in.golfnut69 wrote: ↑Sun Feb 26, 2023 8:21 am That "long term " ACC media deal does not look so good now, and the people at Florida State are upset...

FSU & Clemson want additional $30m + per yr……. As a result the ACC is forming the ACC 8, , who want non equal revenue share….. should be interesting to watch how this one goes..
Seems the Big East/old metro/AAC may come back again…

Looks like ACC is waking up and smelling the coffee, and will be the first to recognize the inevitability of unequal revenue sharing on a permanent basis. Eventually all the conferences will morph to more of a “ you eat what you kill” formula— which will be good for Tulane getting out of the CUSAAC prison. Major conferences will be able to accept the Tulanes of the world without worrying about dilution. The big losers will be the P4 Parasites, as their free ride will be ending.golfnut69 wrote: ↑Sun Feb 26, 2023 8:21 am That "long term " ACC media deal does not look so good now, and the people at Florida State are upset...

The Big 12 might still have OU and UT, and the PAC might still have UCLA and USC if those conferences had gone to unequal revenue sharing.
And the irony is that FSU is the one bellyaching. Many comment about Tulane’s stupidity in leaving the SEC, but what about FSU’s more recent decision to turndown an SEC invite?

This goes back to Troy Dannen talking about the new way that media value is calculated. Each school has an intrinsic value based on viewership and marketability. Each conference contract is based on that total value for each of its members. If members want to share equally, that's their business, but they shouldn't have to. When you lose a school, the conference loses that part of the value. Dannen strongly implied that our new conference teams would get their value, not an equal share.
It makes sense for a school in a sinking ship of a conference to take a lesser share that is triple what they were getting in their former conference in order to save themselves. As to the ACC their members are locked in till 2036. Doesn't make sense to give in now and take a lesser share .Best for them to tell FSU and others that you signed on the bottom line so STFU and play ball.
