No hard new news, but lots of opinion. Obviously not bullish on B1G inviting in Stanford (& Cal), paints a scenario where Stanford, Cal, Oregon St and Wash St as remaining successors take over Pac12's remaining assets, and then use the Pac4 core to add other schools from other Conferences to expand up to a new Pac10 using the remaining foundation and 'assets' of the Pac12.

Makes some sense, but doesn't address if/how the schools we would add from those other conferences can get out of their existing Conf agreements? Are there penalties? If so, how much, and how would they be paid for? What exactly are those residual Pac12 'assets'? Is the actual amount of $$$ in the coffers or coming due from past Pac12 team participation/success reached in tournaments that pay out to the Conf actually real? If so, how much? And how would new GoR media deal for new Pac10 be arrived at?
