Maybe Pac-12 collapse predictions were premature?

From Pete Thamel's Twitter account

Sources: With the Pac-12 president meeting at the top of the hour, there's optimism about the league’s grant of rights being signed. The key linchpin is Oregon. Heading into the meeting, the school is trending toward not going to the Big Ten.

Also, from Nicole Auerbach:

BREAKING: Oregon and Washington's exit from the Pac-12 to the Big Ten appears to have lost momentum overnight, multiple sources tell @TheAthletic

Ross Dellenger:

Multiples sources tell @DanWetzel and me that the tides are turning: The Pac-12 meeting this morning to sign a Grant of Rights, which @YahooSports reported last night, remains on schedule & expectation is all presidents will show.

From Brett McMurphy:

At last minute, Pac-12 may stay together & sign Grant of Rights. After Monday’s media rights offer, P12 held multiple zoom meetings this week. Arizona’s Bobby Robbins appeared fully committed to Pac-12 so much that one participant said: “If Arizona leaves, he should win an Oscar"

And from John Canzano

Expansion is also part of the Pac-12 CEO Group's meeting this morning, per a source with knowledge.

San Diego State and SMU fans on standby.

Makes sense. Why would Apple spend all the time and money
to lowball the PAC? favorable counteroffer appears likely.

And the negotiations continue...

This is more exciting than tracking Paul Johnson's flight pattern.

latest reports are that Oregon and Wash. will not sign GOR. waiting on offer from B1G. More mystery and suspense. Said that Oregon was bigger cut of the pie.

If Apple is serious about getting into the CFB business they need to "pony up."

Someone refresh my memory. What was the original purpose of college athletics and conferences? Pretty sure it wasn't to create a funding source for the universities. Oh well...the almighty dollars and greed win.

Lookout, high schools are the next targets.
