I think they had to take UCLA to get USC.
I think not


should have played hardball

What leverage does USC have?
Taking UCLA with them to the SEC or Big 12???  :s_laugh:

 (I think of CU as Colorado and UC as Cincinnati.)
I think you have to call them "Colorado" or "UC-Boulder". 

UC just doesn't sound right.

We always called Cincinnati UC, but that was locally of course.

Well, it's June 30th.  It's the 1 year anniversary of USC and UCLA's announcement they were leaving the PAC to join the Big Ten.

Generally it's accepted that if the Big Ten or Big 12 were adding any more teams in 2024,  they would need to announce it by today.  Although some think the real deadline is August 1 or even as late as December 1. 

But I believe if nothing is announced today, then nothing else is going to happen in realignment regarding the 2024 season.  Stay tuned.  We shall see.

How would you rank the potential conference realignment moves, from least to most likely?

Just about anybody east of the Miss river to the Pac is "unlikely" of course.  Rutgers to the Pac, nyet on both sides.

Another question would be which P5 conference will be the first to fade.  The B12 has a plan at least.  The Pac seems wobbly, the ACC thus far is hanging.

Looking forward, WV was very fortunate to find a spot in the Big XII.
