    Now that A&M is most likely moving to the SEC, should Larry Scott and the PAC move in on the Kansas and Oklahoma schools? That would make it the PAC 16, and probably the second best conference behind the SEC, and maybe better overall. Could we renegotiate the tv deal? One would think Larry Scott was smart enough to add a clause for renegotiation if the conference added teams.

    Seperate it East and West.

    WEST

    WASH
    WASU
    UofO
    OSU
    STAN
    CAL
    USC
    UCLA

    EAST

    ASU
    UofA
    COL
    UTAH
    OKLA
    OKST
    KAN
    K ST

    Texas will more than likely go Indie. They just launched their own network, and that is the main reason they didn't jump to the Pac in the first place. Larry Scott said no no to their own network.

    They could also add Mizzou or Texas Tech. Indiana State has great academics and would do the conference proud as well. Adding Tech would get them into Texas, and if they really wanted to could add Rice, which is an extremely good academic school.

    Adding a Texas school would really make a huge difference in recruiting in that state.

    Only if there would be a new TV deal that would give each school even more money. If not, fuck it. Leave it like it is. That new TV deal Stott just got is really good for all of the current Pac 12 schools.
