So is no news good or bad? I can’t decide. There's a prominent rumor that he will announce his choice on his birthday, which is in early November. Literally nobody knows which way he's leaning if he does in fact announce on that day. The 3 schools are Arizona, Gonzaga, and Washington. He started fo...

One thing I do enjoy about the PAC 12 networks is the ability to watch the Olympic sports and to see the other teams in the league. I do wonder how much we might see some of the games in these sports in the XXII. Not sure they even have a network that would broadcast some soccer, volleyball, golf o...

Choo, what are our chances with Zoom? I have no idea where he ultimately ends up, because neither does Zoom. UW is offering the biggest payday, but with the caveat of a very unstable situation with its coaching staff. Gonzaga has always been the no brainer and I always felt that in the end that's w...

Choo, what are our chances with Zoom? Hasn’t that been asked and answered a few times? Our chances are not great. Probably. I didn't mean to retread the same territory. Just looking for an update on the guy. These recruitments can be a little crazy. Gonzaga is tough to beat these days. When you see...

I can't fathom the decision to tell the world that this game would not be streamed, but in all actuality streaming it without telling anyone prior. That's one hell of a decision.

A) @PHXCATS: I can tell you that the SEC has no interest in any Big 12 schools. To think we do is folly on your part. You and your current conference mates must do everything you can to make your product valuable. It must be able to stand on its own merits, because there are no schools in the Big 1...

Oh god NO! https://twitter.com/MHver3/status/1694720972958613916 I can confirm this. Big 12 did actually offer Furd/Cal after the 4 corners joined, but were immediately turned down.

I thought it was a ucla professor Not logical, because this was well after USC and UCLA had already committed to the B1G. So it is extremely doubtful that the remaining 10 presidents would rely on something from a school that had already left. I looked through the LA Times story. It does not give t...

It's insane that Kliavkoff would use a professor in the first place. $50 million had no basis in reality even if it came from Stanford. Amateur hour. The negotiating tactic employed here when we didn't have any leverage just screams academics. What kills me is I'm sure most of these universities, i...

Told you there was a ton of behind the scenes stuff to kill the PAC-12. Obviously there is a case to be made. Will be interesting. When PAC-12 games rate better than Big-12 games by a large amount there were obviously other things at play Rate better? On what platform and deal? When did Stanford an...

Choo, Did Robbins meet with BY? And do we know anything about said meeting? I've heard the rumors, but I don't know for sure. Even before CU left he was talking to Yormark weekly, so our position at the moment is far form a surprise. This was the always likely outcome and everyone knew it after the...

If we stay in the Pac-12 we will not be fine. It's asinine to argue otherwise. You know the TV deal now. It is absolute shit.

In a perfect world Fisch/Lloyd would prefer the Pac-12. We don't live in that perfect world and they know that all AppleTV would absolutely destroy their recruiting, so they know what the correct move is.

I don't like this narrative we only go if we take ASSU and Utah with us. Look out for #1 should be our only mindset right now. I think it's made up imo. It's been UA can/will move without and now after the Apple deal drops it's suddenly we won't move without them. B.S. If it is true than Robbins ju...

You guys are rationalizing and you're wrong. Football recruiting will be adversely affected. Many California kids aren't going to go east to Tucson knowing that is the closest to home they will play all season. Our football program is doomed if we leave the PAC. Then we were already fucked the seco...

ChooChooCat

The California recruiting impact is overblown. Nothing will keep Arizona from scheduling a yearly California trip. The TV exposure for being in the Big-12 will be so much better than Pac-12 network. Tucson is still relatively close to the LA area compared to others. Also nothing will keep Arizona f...

Or we will end up waiting for the PAC 09 to promise us 18 mil per year and be on streaming platform for 70% of our games while the Big 13 becomes the big 16 without us. Hopefully we can save 14 million by only having to fly to Seattle and Pullman instead of Orlando and Morgantown. Here's hoping for...

Hi guys, anything happen lately? Are the same Pac 12 shills still here shilling for a poorly ran conference on the verge of death and advocating for a streamer that obtains exactly 1% of all eyeballs weekly to save us?

Of course there've been numbers, but none of them have been worth while or else there would have been a deal or at the very least public. Why would CU and UA stay then? Because they're scared of losing Stanford research money. They need the full cover to go. I'd keep a close eye on CU though over t...

Logically, if the P12 commish had an actual deal that was as good (or better) than the B12 deal he would be shouting it from the rooftops (He's not) Given that nothing has been announced there are two logical explanations: 1) There is no deal 2) The deal they have stinks and the P12 commish is tryi...

The BIG12 without Texas and OU is a conference of also-rans. It will always be third fiddle at best, and the gap between the SEC, B1G, and the BIG12 will continue to grow. Conferences need cash cows/marquee programs. Who is the BIG12 cash cow? If we join the BIG12, we'll be in the exact same positi...

I'm a huge Apple fangirl, but being on that service is a death sentence. You need to go after SPORTS FANS not APPLE FANS. Apple fans by and large don't give two craps about sports.

"Moving to streaming will likely mean ESPN will need to charge more as many people who pay for ESPN don’t watch it."

I'll take why ESPN will never go away from the cable model completely for $500, Alex. Having people who don't watch ESPN pay for ESPN is too much money to give up.

By the way, Apple TV is currently only $6.99/month. And like other streaming services, no contract, You can cancel and re-subscribe at any time. If $63/year for Apple TV for the 9 months that broadcast UA sporting events is too much for you, than you have other, more serious issues. If you can affo...
