Would love to know who this "professor" was 
It’s very fitting that the Pac 12 didn’t jump on a media deal that would have kept the 10 together and likely ended the Big 12 due to an out of touch academic given horrible advice.
It’s actually infuriating to me. It would have been the Pac 10 + 6 of the Big 12 programs in all likelihood. Keeping Oregon and Washington without the bottom rung of the Big 12. Would have been a legitimate power conference.

His steadfastness to Tulane would be on the same level as me pushing for Temple University to be in the Big 12. The reasons would be simpatico.

Most likely the professor was:
1) Economics
2) Sports and Media
3) Communications
4) Chemistry????

In their market and then is barely above New Orleans.
Santa Fe is smaller than Longmont. It's not much of an add.To be fair Albuquerque includes Santa FeNielsen DMA Rankings 2023

Tina Fe would be a great add.
Yeah, I was embarrassed by my alcohol intake at that one, but I didn’t know what else to do

That kinds looks more fun than jumping off of a rock at Gross Reservoir. (But jumping off of the stadium looks less fun)

Shouldn't the school with the longest bowl drought in the power 5 not be a part of this?@Brett_McMurphy

Nebraska AD Trev Alberts tells @Amie_Just there will be more expansion. “History is unkind to conferences that have not had the courage to expand. I don’t believe it’s done. It’s never been done. It’s more likely than not that there will be continued periods of angst. I believe…

He’s talking about the super conference. Top 40 schools. 2 conferences, 8 divisions, 5 schools per division.
Ward Churchill's class requirements:
1 paper at the end of the semester and it better take the side of the Lakota.
I do think we eventually end up with a super league (under it's own governance separate from the NCAA) with 30-50 schools.@Brett_McMurphy

This map includes most of them but there are some schools on the map that won't be included and a few not on there that will.
Texas market is far to large and important to only have two schools, don't know who the 3rd and maybe 4th are but they will be there. Pitt probably gets left out but a school in the NYC/NJ area gets in, again TV markets make it so.
Kentucky is probably out, Utah is borderline if they are around 40.
Kentucky won’t be out! That’s stupid!
Basketball won't save them and they aren't a big draw in football located in an area that already has multiple other teams in the viewing area.
You forgot law professor that used to be in "private practice" three decades ago
In retrospect, wasn't the professor correct? How much will UCLA be getting from the BIG?
The October 2022 date that the professor made his alleged valuation was after USC and UCLA had announced their departure to the B1G. The $50 million per school would’ve been for the remaining 10. Had the presidents countered the $30 million offer with say $35 million, they very well may have gotten it.
The failure of the PAC 12 commissioner and presidents was to overestimate the number of bidders. Fox, CBS, NBC were out from day one, which was pretty widely known. Amazon‘s lack of interest was surprising, but a good commish should’ve had his finger on the pulse. That really left ESPN and Apple as the only bidders.
I misread the post. My early morning reading comprehension is poor.
Had USC and UCLA not bolted and the PAC expanded with six solid teams, I personally think $60 million per school was achievable, as it could’ve dominated the entire western time zones. It cannot be overstated how poorly the conference was managed.

Good to see you found some other realignment related thing to get upside about, Freddie.

So, the ivory tower killed the Pac.
Not upset. It’s just stupid to think that a flagship school in the heart of sec country would be left out. it like saying Tennessee or Florida as they both have a lot of other schools around them with football teams would be left out. Btw I must be getting under your skin since you have to respond to my every comment.
