This hardball diplomacy reminds me of Japanese foreign service officers negotiating with their American counterparts about how to de-escalate tensions in Asia, but then informing the US State Department the decision had been made that the dialogue was not productive and would be discontinued. On December 6, 1941.

History repeats itself.

The Pac-12 will never get finances to the level of the other 4. The late start times away from East Coast primetime for big games, in the sports that matter to TV will always mean less media revenue.

The B1G strategy of covering multiple time zones is important... right now the B1G is betting that a true national profile will mean the most to media buyers. The SEC is betting on football as 1, 1A, and 1B. Eventually, they will want a west coast presence.

The ACC is basically a 2 time zone conference. And the fact that they have so many private schools, means that they don't have the 'subway alumni' reach that B1G and SEC schools have.
