USC athletic director Pat Haden said he prefers to keep USC in a divison with UCLA, California and Stanford when the Pac-10 splits into two divisions.
Wow Wolf, this is breaking news! I can’t believe you got this scoop!
Wolfie got it right from the pages of the L.A. Times.
Wolfie must have lifted this right off the pages of the L.A. Times website. What a scoop.
Mark these words- total revenue sharing will make us the ACC of the West.
We need to at least keep a bigger share of gate receipts. We rent our stadium. Unless the PAC 12 wants to buy us one we need more money.
USC, UCLA and any other team with bigger following needs to be given a leg up. No one will watch our conference to see Wazzou or the Beavs on a weekly basis except their tiny markets. We need to pull the big market eyeballs and the teams with the national following- SC primarily and then the second level like the Huskies, UCLA, the Buffs, Cal, Oregon and then the next level of big market guys like Arizona schools and Utah, and so on.
We have to have a Bama, Florida, LSU and cycle in a Tennessee, UGA.
But some teams also have to be So Carolina, Vandy, Ole Miss, Miss State, Kentucky and Auburn (thow them in there too) who really aren’t good very often but they get a moment to be in sun.
Here is my two cents regarding the PAC 12 Divisions.
NORTHERN DIVISION:
California
Oregon
Oregon State
Stanford
Washington
Washington State
SOUTHERN DIVISION:
Arizona
Arizona State
Colorado
USC
Utah
Ucla
And when scheduling intra-division games always schedule USC/CAL/Stanford/Ucla every year in order to preserve these rivalries year in and year out.
Works for me!
sevenheismans,
Here is my dos pesos regarding the PAC 12 Divisions.
Rolls Royce Division:
California
So Cal
Oregon
Arizona
Washington
Utah
Bentley Division:
Stanford
UCLA
Oregon State
Arizona State
Washington State
Colorado
Scheduling will always schedule USC/UCLA, CAL/Stanford/ Wash/Wash St, Ariz/ Ariz St, Ore/Ore St, Colo/Colo St and Utah/BYU or Utah st, in order to preserve these rivalries year in and year out. Also, allows them to meet in a rubber match at Championship.
