Great analysis by Nate Silver on potential additions of Stanford and cal. He views cal as only having a chance at the b10 if we take them with us - just like UCLA only got the invite because $c wanted them.
He sees us as a value add addition for the big 10, net net.
And, as I posted below, his article points out that we were #2 in the pac 12 in tv ratings from 2015-2019 (yes obviously good years for us. But again, dispels the myth that we don’t bring anything to the table re tv).
He also points out the potential massive value of the b10 having the most prestigious school in the epicenter of Silicon Valley.
Anyway, food for thought. None of this is over and I agree with Ben we’ll land on our feet. Despite incompetence all around.

OK, so what's your college football master plan?
I'm fine with Oregon and Washington to the Big Ten. But I'm not sure how to solve for the equilibrium.
