High probability that the ABOR will do whatever Crow (ASU) wants. And what Crow wants is to build the world's largest JUCO within the academic halo of a conference affiliation with Stanford, and to a lesser extent, Cal. He'd also like to kill college athletics (really).
Sounds like Arizona is going to have to decide ....
in the end, EMAW will always win.
No school with choices should sign on to another "if certain subscription levels are met" deal unless the base finances are amazing.

Any guesses as to the level of cuts (begging) that Schultz/Wazzu and OSU did? Down to a $15 million cut? $10 million? $5 million?

Down to a $15 million cut? $10 million? $5 million?I can't see how Wazzu could afford halving their TV payout. I also looked and Utah Athletics received $12 million dollars in subsidization from the academic side of the house in 2022. Without it, they would have been $10 million in the red at current expense levels.
I don't really want to, but I think it would be fun to take UConn just so Arizona St and Utah know there is one less seat at the table

Really get everyone riled up.I'm more and more pro UCONN. If BY can split off the basketball $$, the conference could be getting a pretty legit payout. ASU and Utah do not help that cause.
