The quartet likely will be excluded from the realignment game played by the Big Ten and Big 12, leaving an uncertain future.
In the dead of summer, nuclear winter is coming for a handful of Pac-12 schools excluded from the vicious realignment game.Oregon and Washington are leaving for the Big Ten.The remaining quartet — Stanford, Cal, Washington State and Oregon State — is facing a Defcon 1 scenario.Can they maintain competitive football and basketball programs without the massive revenue that comes with membership in a top conference?First, the schools have a morsel of time to spare.
But as the situation stands, the Pac-12 likely will be reduced to the Pac-4 by the start of the 2024 football season. Campus leadership is another issue for the remaining quartet. Cal chancellor Carol Christ is retiring next summer, Oregon State president Jayathi Murthy has been on the job for less than one year, and Stanford’s Marc Tessier-Lavigne is stepping down at the end of this month following an academic scandal.
One of many challenges with this strategy is the timing: It’s unlikely the Pac-12 could add schools in time for the 2024 season because of logistical issues and exit fees in other conferences.
