Or we take ASU and UCONN, leave Utah to the wolves for the MWC.
If it were up to me, Wintz would be on a fan scholarship, full ride.

We should just do whatever the networks want. Which I think is staying at 14.
Everything I've read about Crow points to his being a dumbass. Now, if his dumbassery was a long-term play to kill college athletics at ASU, then he's absolutely killing it.

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 either, but if your choice is the $3 million per year that Mountain West teams get and a reduced share of Pac 12 revenue...And, with Utah, that nugget of info makes their posturing even more ridiculous.

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?

ASU and Utah certainly don't excite me but I think it will happen.
I am 100% sincere when I say bring Wazzou & Chainsaw Aggie instead of Utah & ASU.
in the end, EMAW will always win.
Can we just take a minute to appreciate BY here.https://twitter.com/Brett_McMurphy/status/1687516551283400707
We should rebrand as the Big Cat Conference.Wildcats, Jaycats, Cougars, Red Cats, Cowcats, Bearcats, Cat Devils, cUte Cats, Mountain Cats, Buff Cats, Horned Cats, Baptist Cats, Golden Cats

Those have long been two G5 athletic departments in a P5 conference. Neither have had any sustained success in any sport. They have been drowning in the Pac 12 and you want to bring them into the Big 12? Come on man, their football attendance and ratings have been worse than KU. It sucks that they are getting demoted but they are in no way of the top 64 athletic departments in college athletics.
