I've slept on it

My conclusion - I don't care. Well be fine either way. Will not impact my support either way. 

Go Bulls. Not go Pac, not go AAC, not even go P4/ACC/whatever. Go Bulls. 

Your still sleep subconscious does seem to care ending and starting with GO, no one cheers stay Bulls because staying is bad.

The ACC is free to make an offer to us today

They could make an offer today to join in 2030 and people would wet their pants.

Second, the rumored PAC 12 distribution is being rumored at $12 to $15 million.

 

Not laughing at your message Jim, laughing at that number.  Truly a great rumor benefitting the Pac8, Part Deux.

All things considered, I believe moving to the PAC 12 for 5 years is the better move than staying put for 5 years. 

And if the GOR is 23 years?

I mean at least I could get that, there is then some kind of path. Right now there is serious advocacy that we will somehow win the hunger games for relevance by deciding not to even enter into the competition. Look around the new PAC12 with Memphis and Tulane, then look around what will be the new aac with us and absolutely no one and where does anyone honestly think any new call ups are coming from? Why because of our market? Fau and fiu are both in better ones, so probably hanging out with them and hoping for the best isn’t the greatest of ideas. If we stay here it’s over.

What kind of “research” do they do at Memphis?  BBQ sauce genetic modifications?

I think that is where you see the up hold right now. Memphis and Tulane, as well as others ultimately want to be in the ACC or Big 12.

They will come on an agreement where getting out when the time comes wont be overly complicated

“Respected in research” and Memphis should never be in the same sentence. Ever.

Rebuilding the pyramids but as arenas and then converting those arenas into outdoor sporting good stores

That would be a flat out MUST.  No one WANTS to be in that mess of a G6, but it might beat the AAC.

Gonna be hard for a TV contract, unless subscription based, when your teams don't want to be there.

Moving to the PAC has pros and cons and that's why it's a dilemma.  There are exit fees to pay, travel concerns and there isn't even a media contract to analyze.   If you stay, does the AAC revenue go down and do we lose conference mates?
