I don't know. Losing USC and UCLA ripped the guts out of the Pac. Now I'm hearing that Wazoo's athletic dept is sucking wind. Just not a good vibe IMO.

a collum extolling UO's academic virtues and stated that SMU was not a good
school because we lack AAU status. Why this dimestore hack cares anything
about the fate of the Big 12 or the PAC is a mystery. Unlikely he has any info
of substance regarding Colorado's plans.

Northwestern's new president, who came from Oregon, said this week that the B1G needs more west coast schools to make travel easier now that we have USC and UCLA.

I'd probably add Navy in that group as well. They have a National following as does Army. Then you have Oregon State and Wazzu sitting out there as well.

Go to the WAC and the others half go to the C-USA. Was there a perceived difference between them at the time? Was there a reason they didn't stick together? Why did SMU leave for C-USA later?
