The P12 schools that have a shot at the B1G should be pushing for the P12 to stay together with a 6 year TV contract/GOR. That will align them with the B1G TV contract expiration.

I cannot see the B1G leaving USC and UCLA all alone out West. So at least 2 (if not more) of those left behind P12 schools will eventually get an invite.

Washington has a good brand, a decent sized fanbase, is in the #12 TV market, and is AAU. 
Oregon has a good brand, a decent sized fanbase, is in the #22 TV market, and is AAU.
Stanford has a decent brand, a small fanbase, is in the #10 TV market, and is AAU. 
Cal has a poor brand, no fanbase, is in the #10 TV market, and is AAU. 
Utah has a decent brand, a decent sized fanbase, is not in a Top 25 market, and is AAU. 
Colorado has a decent brand, a decent sized fanbase, is in the #16 TV market, and is AAU. 
Arizona has a good BBall brand, a decent sized fanbase, is kinda in the #11 TV market, and is AAU.

So why take yourself out of the B1G running by going to the B12, where they will be locked in 2 years longer? Especially when the B12 TV money isn't significantly better than the P12 TV money?

Maybe Arizona and Utah would since they are more B1G long shots. But does the B12 really want Utah? The rest of the schools should stick together and wait it out.
