Gonzaga to Pac-12 as full-share member.

That's a pretty big a carrot to place in front of Memphis...

Yes- and Penny cares deeply about this

I'm sure Memphis knew about the potential invite before they said no.

But, did they know that Gonzaga would accept and that it's actually happening?

Interesting- they have to add more teams now for sure beyond just Tulane and Mem

Pac still doing dumb stuff. How do you give full revenue with no football?

It's not that much revenue...

When the alternative is no conference.....

I assume it’s full basketball revenue. No?

The tweet suggests otherwise.

I think Hawaii is in trouble football wise...

False. Hawaii is spending $400M on a new stadium to open in 2028
Doogal McCougar

And the stadium is like an FCS sized stadium, 25k seating

Spending $400M in Hawaii is like spending $150M in Utah.

Seems like a knee jerk reaction to add anybody after the east coast schools turned them down much like when they invited

Seems the perfect and timely move to me. The PAC looks like a power-level bball
Doogal McCougar

"power-level bball conference"? You serious Clark? hahaha

If the PAC gets Gonzaga, SDSU, and Memphis...yes. That's a multi-bid league
Doogal McCougar
2:16pm
That's a big IF and unlikely at that. Only SDSU currently is a decent bball program. Even so, 3 decent bball programs

While football is generally the focus in realignment moves...

The Pac12 is like a Big12 lite. They are looking to use a conference brand,

No Memphis, but they should target UNLV/New Mexico/St. Mary's. Good hoops group.

Does Gonzaga start up a football program?

Nothing desperate about that, Pac. Beyond the $, I'm not so sure how good a move that is for the Zags.

I guess I do not see how it is a bad move for them.

Bball-wise they WERE the big dawg in the NW. Now they've hitched their brand on w WSU & OreSt?

Such a better basketball league. SDSU, CSU, BSU, WSU, OSU? So much better than WCC.
mulletino

Yes, but Gonzaga's regional brand was pure. If they had any regional rivals it was OU & OW (if they'd been brave enough)
SinkingQuffa
1:39pm
Well, they are #1 right now, and this move would put them in a position more
Gentleman Stan
1:43pm
Brand-wise, affiliation-wise — it's NOT the easy answer, though. WSU's "glory" won't last. Particularly
SinkingQuffa

SDSU is good. Maybe they believe they'll get UNLV and UNM too?
HuskerFan2

They are still the Big Dog in the NW, and potentially (if this has legs) in the
Gentleman Stan

I do hope it works out for they (& the Pac), but no one hardly sees the Zags brand as a subset of the WCC

Good move for Gonzaga because the basketball is much better
RenoCoug

They have no problem w national power scheduling these days.

I shoulda said, "Besides the $ AND the major step-up in conf basketball competition..."
