[QUOTE="Buckaineer, post: 129851910, member: 1428007"] Arizona and ASU were born from a couple of places. 1st, the idea that ONLY P5 schools could possibly be worth anything in BIG 12 expansion scenario---that means you'd have to identify some P5 schools that legitimately could be seen willing to move one day to the BIG 12. Someone wrote an article that maybe Arizona should consider moving and voila there it was. The other thing is the failure of the PAC to generate money for its members. Even the lowest payouts to BIG 12 members of tier 3 TV money is double what schools like Oregon and USC are getting from the PACnets--and so that gives media writers and those that have determined the BIG 12 must have P5 schools to expand possible candidates for that. But what PAC and BIG 12 members receive as a whole for media rights is similar. The only thing for sure is that the BIG 12 is at a growing disadvantage, and that simply playing a 10 team CCG rematch isn't going to address any of their future needs. [/QUOTE]
