Can The PAC-12's Baghdad Bob Commissioner Save The Conference?

Will the PAC-12 survive if more teams leave? Can George Kliavkoff stop...

I checked his account, and it all looks like unbiased objective statements to me.

Eventually all of this greed will decimate the national fanbase.  The more exclusive they make the national championship process, the less fans they will have.  I am a USF fan, and I'm not going to pi

Everyone involved in managing our pathetic program over the past 10 years should be fired out of a cannon into the bay.

So the "Pacific Athletic Conference" will live on in name, no matter what happens.

I think the Beavs should to back to their old logo.  If you are going to be goofy, be full goofy!

This is a ridiculously bad article. The PAC 12 would have no leverage? Even with two teams, they would have a lot of leverage. The Big East split apart? Is that what happened? I thought they raided CUSA. 
 

I don’t love when fans post their random opinion as an article, but I guess that’s realignment journalism these days.

Not sure exactly your question here but the BE did split apart, after being raided, into basketball and football schools. The football schools then raided CUSA forming the AAC ...

That's a good portion of any type "journalism" these days ......

From the article: “Also, we have history to look at. The Big East used to exist as a football conference. When the ACC came calling, it was all over in the blink of an eye. Nobody in the Big East attempted to patch the holes as the ship sank.

The league just splintered and collapsed.”

It didn’t collapse. It raided CUSA and changed its name to the AAC. The history completely disproves the author’s point.

Exactly. The PAC won’t disappear, at worst they will add MWC schools and move on. They will be weaker but they are not giving the name, prestige, plus basketball units and exit fees

Maybe it's because we're not talking about apples to apples in comparison with the Pac12 situation, plus a bit of semantics, but the author's point is dead on. At the end of the Big East, there were 7 hoops only schools and 4 football programs. The 7 split, 2/3 of the conference, taking the Big East name with them. For all practical purposes and common logic, that's splintering and collapsing ....
