see and i didn't even know that tidbit. it's just when you come in this thread and see screengrabs one after the other of their tweets you get a this is some bullshit vibe.
That is correct. While I am hopeful we still have a seat at the Big12 table when the music stops, it must be really hard for them to not even be in the discussion for anything at this point.
Wonder what the meltdown for USF fans will be when this is all done and someone with some sense realizes they should scrap the multi-hundred million dollar OCS and just rent RayJay as long as they can afford it and just be thankful they still have a football program.
All UCF needs is a place at the adult table. Let us eat from that table for the next 5-10 years and we are going to be a problem on the national stage in a hurry.
didn’t Gabe Davis sign w Roc Nation? he may know our new Commish
I’ll predict the OCS doesn’t happen if they are left out. I kind of doubted it before this even, they don’t have the money and I always felt like it was all posturing anyways, trying to sound committed in hopes for an invite to the Big12.
Might sign up for Capital One Venture
Looks like Bob Trollsby is at it again 😂😂
Big 12 in deep discussions to add up to six Pac-12 teams after USC, UCLA defections to Big Ten
The Big 12 is aiming to maintain its positioning as a power conference while expanding its footprint to a key market

I'm assuming that UCF along with the other newbies are contractually bound to BiG 12. So can Pac 12 really force UCF and BYU out of the equation if Big 12 and Pac 12 merged?
I am sure they can. They can pay us off. Here is millions of dollars and you’re out.
But we have more value than Wazzu and Oregon State. We should be more than safe.
Pac 12 Leftovers will be:
Cal
Stanford
Oregon State
Washington State
I don't think the other Pac 12 schools leaving/negotiating out give two shits about those 4.
Those 4 can fill a MWC nicely and are really a better fit in regards to their Football fandom and "give-a-shitometer" versus Big 12.

I think Wazu actually has a pretty decent fanbase. They do have that MWC feel though.
This is exactly what worries me. The ACC has to make a move.
ACC rumors build as Pac-12 tries to save itself (and stick it to the Big Ten)
Report: 4 Pac-12 teams meeting with Big 12 about possible move
Multiple reports indicate that the Big 12 is meeting with representatives of four Pac-12 schools to discuss bringing them aboard.

If the ACC starts adding teams it could open up their GOR which could allow teams to leave for cheap. They don’t want that to happen
ACC, Pac-12 discuss 'loose partnership' that could include 'championship game' in Las Vegas

Pitt has much more draw than UCF. All the same it looks bleak for Pitt.
There is no scenario in which the Migets and mistits can cobble together a conference any one will care about.
All the horses left the barn already. The big ones in the pasture are eating calmly knowing they will be one of the 40.
I think the best case scenario for us is, assuming there will be multiple schools leaving, ESPN brokers a deal with the ACC and the SEC that allows select schools to exit for a reduced fee while ensuring the rest of the conference that our payouts will remain the same. What’s in our favor is that ESPN has a vested interest in our survival because of the ACC Network and the fact that they can control a power conference for a fraction of the B1G/SEC’s costs. They would also want to avoid losing ACC schools to FOX and the Big Ten.
If Clemson, Florida State, Miami, and UNC leave and we can still receive our ~$33M annual payout, that will significantly higher than what the Big XII or PAC-12 will have, placing us in a position of strength moving forward if we wanted to backfill with some of the eastern Big XII schools (Cincinnati, UCF, WVU).
Still think Miami may be in play for the BIG.
Hate to see this happen to so many Universities with long histories. All the State schools from the Midwest, all the State schools from PAC. You and many others from ACC.
Been watching this game since 1968. My hometown team was televised twice a year.
What we have now is nothing like the bucolic days of the 60s and 70s.
The teams that have a deeper history, and subsequently, value are now gravitating towards amazing money, and autonomy.
An aside to the ones that call names and insult, UCF did in fact play my school, and got predictibly shellacked.
Youre the sole reason for the USF mega tears thread
Big 12 could put the Pac-12 out of its misery by expanding to 16 teams | Opinion
A variety of reports say the Big 12 is talking this week with Arizona State, Arizona, Colorado and Utah about fleeing the Pac-12.

Nah won't happen. I think for one travel is way to much vs the BIG12 and also the ACC isn't stable UNC and FSU could bolt to the SEC at any moment.
We saw how the Alliance between the PAC 12 and the ACC played out. Money rules and teams will jump for the big dollars.ACC, Pac-12 discuss 'loose partnership' that could include 'championship game' in Las Vegas

Wow! you are still living in the past just like the Nebraska fans. When was the last time Miami was relevant? I will agree they finally hired a good coach.
22 years ago…and shellacked is an odd way to say you won by a touchdown
Of course you are made fun of and insulted, look at the drivel you think is a good take.
You are just an insulting moron with NO redeeming qualities. Does the thought ever go through your 58 IQ noggin why we treat the Pitt guys with respect? Because they come here with respect and well reasoned arguments.
As someone else said here, you are very similar to the mouth breather lowlifes from Nebraska who also have never set foot in a college classroom.
What is even worse though is the way you don’t even state who your “college” is, you are obviously ashamed of the institution you pretend to go to just because you bought a damn t-shirt.
No, even the educated cow fans can come up with a well reasoned argument occasionally.
This idiot has nothing going on......
