    I am very confident that the Big XII hired the right person, at the right moment to be commissioner. I think Yormark is and will be setting up the conference for success.

    People can forget any ACC teams leaving and coming to the Big12. The Big12 doesn’t have any money to afford them. ESPN and a Fox aren’t going to give any money to add anyone from the ACC. ESPN wants the ACC to continue to provide content across all the ESPN network channels. The ACC will get a reworked deal that will closely mirror what the Big12 has now to solidify the ACC as a solid tier 2 conference just as ESPN and Fox did with the Big12. Don’t be surprised when both the Big12 and ACC are 16 member conferences with mirror payouts between the two. The ACC also has the ACC network which doesn’t pay much additional money but it does give the ACC value with exposure across all their sport programs.

    I'm a big Arizona fan and want to see UA sports succeed, but most Big 12 schools are in a no win situation. The competitive disadvantage is too big and the cost to compete is unsustainable. I would advise Arizona to give up, spend as little as possible, and try to pay off as much debt as possible with the Big 12 tv money. Then its time to turn all athletics to club sports.

    It should be against the law for college athletics departments to fund themselves in part with taxpayer dollars or student fees.

    This seems like the end of college football. When these programs get so big that they have to ask the university to support them more than some academic departments get, that is a problem. As much as I love college football we need to make sure that the academics and the viability of the school are prioritized over the sport. There is no way this is a sustainable model for universities going forward and bringing in private equity just further isolates them from the university.

    College sports is over...this is minor league sports...but really professional sports just at lower level than NFL and NBA. Our conference is dying a slow death and will not be able to keep up unless it can get a TV Network deal like the BIG 10 or SEC. It is like the NFL without a salary cap. It is the 49ers paying Joe Montana and is also to pay Steve Young to be his backup. Under a salary cap teams can no longer do it. But in college sports, the Big 12 doesn't have the budgets to compete with SEC and BIG 10. Even if a team finds a two star athlete who becomes a five star player, they will just transfer to big program for more money.

      But they "got the schools" correct?
      Part of Yormark's job is knowing what kind of bids would be out there for the PAC12.
      He clearly did and undercut them taking the ESPN deal out from under them.
      No matter how much Apple offered UW/UO weren't staying. They did not want game son Apple TV.

      BYU tops the list of deadweight. UCF is deadweight if Miami becomes available. You can make arguments both Cincy and Houston are deadweight. All those schools would be on the outside looking in if the PAC had imploded the year before. Now all of those schools might make it hard to actually get some better brands out of an imploding ACC.

    The Big 12 has a real problem with the quality of their football product. They also have a culture problem. There is no culture. I can't think of a single game that can draw a national audience. I've seen expansion nuts before in the business world, and there is a correlation here. Expanding without improving the quality of the product is catastrophic. I was open minded about Yormark before, but I have lost all confidence at this point.

      I agree. The PAC depletion and the future ACC depletion only pushed and pushes the BIG12 that much further behind the benchmark. The BIG12 has no brand or unifying culture that I can see and is already too large/wide for a Tier 2 conference.
