Yep , completely agree

I think it was Arizona AD that said , when they joined the Big 12

College sports are expensive

and I agree what hurt the Pac 12 is being in the Pacific Time zone ,

more games on national TV is huge , the Big Ten now covers all time zones , the Big Ten will now have games all day long

this confrence realignment pretty much all started when the Big Ten got thier 80 million per school TV deal , the SEC got their 75 million per school deal beofre that

if the TV deal was equal amoung confrences , schools would probably have stayed put

but , that is no longer the case

Florida is making 75 Million in the SEC , while Florida State is only making 30 million in the ACC

hopefully things will settle down now for a while

Florida State , Clemson and North Carolina all want out of the ACC , but it look pretty tough for them to get out , at least in the near future with their grant of rights and TV deal that doesn't expire until 2036

but one of , and maybe the main reason why the ACC added , Stanford , Cal and SMU , was because if the ACC drops below a certian of the Teams , ESPN can renegotiate their deal for a lower amount , so the ACC added those three teams in case Florida State , Clemson and North Carolina leave

But I think it will slow down now , we'll see what happens with Washington State and Oregon State ,

and , as always , all eyes will always be on Notre Dame , how long can they stay independant
