This really smells like a rat (Big12) trying to put more pressure on Pac 12 teams so that one or more of them jumps to the Big12 and the Pac 12 conference start crumbling. Then the Pac 12 teams start to panic and the four corner schools end up being absorbed by the Big 12.
What happens to Oregon and Washington? The Big Ten may not be ready to add two more team from out west until they see how UCLA and Southern Cal handle the transition to the Big Ten. Oregon & Wash are in limbo.
What would happen to Stanford, Cal, WSU and OSU? The MWC? Independent? A mini Pac 12 ( with SDS and SMU) joining?
Are you confident that George Kliavkoff can save the Pac-12 conference? It sure looks like he’s in over his head and he’s already been beaten by the big 12 commissioner at getting a media contract. Can poaching of a few Pac 12 teams be next?
In all likelihood the Apple TV rumor has its roots in the Big 12 conference office. This is their dream scenario.
