SDSU sent a letter to the MWC yesterday saying they "intend to resign" from the conference,  which I guess is NOT the same thing as saying they resign today.

Everybody is a little confused, but the MWC decided to interpret as saying SDSU resigned yesterday and will start withholding funds from SDSU starting yesterday.
Interesting article about the tension:

SDST is insane.  
I think I want to leave you.  But could we still share a bank account?  And could I just move out like one room at a time?  And I'm going to need some child support before we actually divorce.

In your dreams.

There are prizes in conference expansion, like UNC/UVA, and then there are panic additions because someone else did it.

UCLA/USC and OU/Texas clearly are prizes.  SDSU is not.  I thought Utah was a panicker, but they have migrated into near prize territory.

I think Utah, ASU, UA and UC (CU??) would be a prize for the XII.

No doubt, but they also could be considered panickers as well, each conference has its own metrics.  (I think of CU as Colorado and UC as Cincinnati.)

The B1G/SEC wouldn't get very excited to add any of them, but they could at some point.

Nobody left in the PAC brings enough to the table for the B1G. Maybe Stanford?

It's ND, UVA, UNC, FSU and Miami. Maybe Stanford?

Washington would be decent I think.  Oregon would be sort of OK, hence tjhis thread.  Clemson?  "OK' for the B1G, nice for the SEC.  

VaTech????  BC?  Miami?  If the ACC were to collapse (e.g., lose UNC/UVA), some residuals would be "OK" ...

Washington might be OK, after they get to 20. I don't think they are in the first four.

Berkeley, Washington, and Stanford, in that order, are the remaining schools of value in the Pac.

My guess is we end up with two major conferences of 24 teams each, which basically means four conferences.  Then some "midmajors" out west.

USC and ND are worth adding to the B1G

UCLA and the others are not
