Ummm....wouldn't the Regents have been briefed on this before it was publicly announced and got their blessing?

Won't they have to pay all the athletes to be title IX compliant, even if they separate football from the ncaa?

Probably but it remains unclear how these things will work out. Title IX wasn't intended for pay equity, so I'm guessing there will be court cases in the future.

 
Yeah, like all 12 of them.

It will really stink when Iowa plays USC & UCLA once a decade.  The board room in the big ten must have roots in Davenport and Waterloo.  Plus some Spartan grads.

Sounds to me like they just want to know if they'll even be considered or don't waste your time.

They are probably wondering if they should hold off on a GOR with a new PAC12 agreement....or Big12 agreement. It's nice to know they want into the Big10.

I believe that Kevin Warren wants an NFC/AFC organization for College football. If we pay players, we compete better with the SEC. He wants the pick of the remaining litter. ND, Oregon, NC, Stanford, etc ....Schools with great academics and a coast to coast representation. 

If he gets this off to a good start, I wonder if Texas and OU rethink their move.

 
You 'member a year ago today when the Big Ten was announcing this alliance, back before they proceeded to raid one of their alliance mates? I 'member.

What a historic move by these three conferences to collective do absolutely nothing but posture to the SEC, who will continue to claim championships and rake home the money that follows winners.
