JUST GIVE US A CALL

GOR!!!!

That expires in 2024. That's when USC and UCLA are joining the Big Ten. Presumably, that would be the case for Oregon, Washington and/or Stanford.

the cut off day for '24 was yesterday.. which is why SC and UCLA announced, fwiw.. now
 
Dan Dakitch is talking about it on XM right now

What cut off?


They're not leaving for the Big 10 until 2024 because of the GOR.

there was a deadline on the 30th or whatever to inform the conference that they were leaving.. which is why it came out when it did

Interesting
So they/USC could have given any other school a heads up before hand if the BIG had wanted it ???

that's everything you need to know right there.

I actually read the ACC GOR last night (it’s only about six pages) and it’s surprising how simple it is. 1st it doesn’t list which state has jurisdiction legally for the contract which means you can bring suit in any state and he lawyers will argue for months just on that point.

Second it doesn’t spell out what the consideration is for schools signing the contract so again a point the lawyers would argue for months.

The main thing is it can be undone with a vote but doesn’t state how many so I would assume a simple majority. There are 14 members in the ACC (ND wouldn’t get a vote) so that means eight schools would have to approve the end of GOR.

If you add in ND then you have a total of 5 schools which you really need 12 or 6 to each conference taking the conferences to 22. At that point you need to go to 24 and do 6 pods of 4.

So the SEC and B1G would need to probably take 8 each to hit that number or wait until 2036 and just cherry pick. I imagine the B1G could take some more PAC schools to maintain quality something like:

B1G

ND
Virginia
GT
Syracuse
Washington
Oregon
Stanford
Cal

SEC

VT
UNC
Duke
Miami
FSU
Clemson
NC State
Louisville/Pitt/Wake

You could cut of the last two in each group but pods would be difficult. This is what you are looking at to go after GOR right now.

Seriously? You read the Athletic article and put this here as your own thinking? C’mon dude.

Every day Oregon doesn't get a call lowers the chances for a meaningful relationship. O has been a cheap one night stand.
 
Seems the date has passed and the earliest would probably be a year later, if anything did happen.
That gives the BIG time.

Do you have a credible link for that? I would like to read the specifics.
I could see having to give the PAC a years notice, but two?

Not that it matters, they're not leaving until 2024 because of that pesky lil' GOR.

Or the little Ducks aren’t worth as much as you think they are

They would take Washington before Oregon based on history alone.

Oregon's success has been recent and even then it's been sporadic. They crashed and burned under Helfrich and have proven twice now to be a stepping stone program.

Oregon's success can be attributed to the traditional PAC powers being down. Even Nebraska beat Oregon just 5 seasons ago.

Here's just UCLA (blue) compared to Oregon (yellow).
You don't wanna see USC or Washington comparisons.

@OregonDucks

84 year old Phil Knight can't take his Nike money with him to the grave, so he needs to spend a big chunk now...

Uncle Phil should contact the B1G, Notre Dame, and Fox with the proposal of bringing in Notre Dame & Oregon together to the B1G... Phil will pay Notre Dame's fees to escape their ACC obligations, plus when the Under Armour apparel contract with the Irish expires in a couple years, Nike will sign ND to a new massive apparel contract dwarfing all other apparel contracts.

Again, Phil can't take his money with him when he kicks the bucket, so he should spend a bunch now in order to get the Ducks into the B1G.

Oregon fans need to bombard Phil with this proposal.

Very interesting/good article on the thing. One would think that if/when a challenge happened that North Carolina would be the state where that court he mentions would be but…
