It was interesting last week that ESPN talking heads Finebaum (SEC), Cubelic (SEC) and Herbstreit all spoke about significant further realignment and it happening sooner than most expect. When Herbstreit talked about ACC schools he mentioned this fall, but more likely next spring.
All these guys, are A) guessing/speculating, and B) talking about it because they know realignment talk brings views and clicks.

@isucy86 So you think someone like Finebaum has inside knowledge of the dealings these conferences...especially outside the SEC? The guy knows little about anything outside the SEC, and realignment is for sure not his forte, he is no better than any other of the so called media types that have speculated for more than a year about this. I also doubt he has intimate knowledge of the business dealings of media companies, even ESPN, are not sharing their business dealings with a guy like him.
Give me the cliff notes. Can’t listen till tomorrow. Please and thank you. I’ll repay you in virtual blunts.
Jason likes the Big 12; says Arizona is a basketball school. PAC sunshine pumping is generated by Washington State & Oregon State because they have nowhere else to go. Most of the schools prioritize academics over athletics. Utah is very happy where they're at; but any of the schools would sprint to the B1G if invited (duh). Acknowledges PAC snobbery and hubris has led to their current predicament. The new expiration date is media days.
So basically nothing new…
The Boston College AD already spilled the beans on that. Back when the the Big East was breaking up and they were taking criticism for leaving their conference rival he said something to the effect that it wasn't their fault, ESPN was behind it.
Dave Wannstedt and his mustache are awesome and don't tell me otherwise. He said ISU is going to end up in the Big 10 so he's awesome. Sure, he was on a golf course and probably drunk. It doesn't mean that I can't accept it as truth.
That dude is and always has been a massive turd.
