Message: [QUOTE="Oakland, post: 4424255, member: 590"] I agree with Bill; the students and the fans don't want this. This is for management, boosters, and the coaches (the big winners). I don't know about the FB/BB athletes, but I am sure all the other sport athletes don't want this huge increase in travel time. I don't understand how the Presidents/State admins are going along with this for what, $10/20 mil year? Most of that will go to travel costs, and FB/BB coaches within 5 years. It is a real shame as the PAC12 was a model conference: high level achievement, two teams in each region with obvious rivalries, reasonably compact travel area, and BB was particularly athlete friendly as you would travel to one area and play two schools and come home in one trip - only the Ivy league is better.
