Realignment talk not going away
This. It is clear in the bylaws, and from recent precedent, that a school loses board voting rights upon notice of withdrawal. All of these universities that are leaving have had regents meetings where they voted on leaving the conference, and they have all made announcements of their decicions to leave the Pac 12. This is pretty straight forward. If the teams wanted to liquidate and distribute Pac 12 assets, they should have held a vote to dissolve before they actually left the conference.

Not quite sure where to put this, but seems kind of relevant... NIL a better thread for it?- Realignment talk not going away

I do not watch TAMUs, Auburns, or Arkansas games, so you can count me in for TCU-Baylor and Tech-OSU.- Realignment talk not going away

That has to do with CFP payout distribution, but perhaps that also includes reserving a portion of the conference media rights distribution for CFP inclusion and success.- Realignment talk not going away
Overall. So, they are looking to add about 2 MM per team per year, or maybe 30 MM divided up between 3 or 4 schools.- Realignment talk not going away
Was about to post this. I have no idea what is going on, but I do not believe it was ever reported that the Big 12 had "conversations" with those schools. Hopefully it means CalFord is going to the Mountain West.- Realignment talk not going away

Again, what is the incentive for the "no votes" to change their votes? Say that CalFord get 10MM per year each for joining the ACC, and SMU gets nothing. How would the conference come to an agreement in spreading the rest of the 52MM per year pro rata revenue, and why would that satisfy all the "no votes"? Would schools like NC, NC State, FSU, Miami, Virginia, Virginia Tech and Clemson also receive a negotiated, clear exit ramp for leaving the conference early?- Realignment talk not going away

Kyle Whittingham knows next to nothing about the future of conference realignment. However, I will agree with him in that there will probably be more movement before the new CFP contract is renegotiated in 2026. Utah will not likely be part of that movement though.- Realignment talk not going away
If you look past the recent PR blitz (probably initiated through Cal and Stanford connections) that is trying to keep the idea alive and the public support for the move from Notre Dame (athletic director is a Stanford alumnus) and a few other ACC teams, there is no real incintive for the ACC schools that are voting against the accession of Stanford, Cal, and SMU to change their votes. There just isn't. Accepting these new schools just dilutes revenue and political influence within the conference. If they do eventually change their votes next week, I wouldn't understand the rationale unless it is for some academic reason. With that being said, I could possibly see some sort of scenario where ESPN would work with Big 12 leadership to let CalFord in for a 10 to 15 MM dollar revenue share. There is most likely a dollar amount that would be low enough to be lucrative for the Big 12, I guess. Possibly for more late night game window options. The thing is, there is going to be a lot of leftover Big 12 content that will be pushed to ESPN +. Maybe the Big 12 could find a way to better monetize that content than just sticking it in ESPN + and paying the production cost, while receiving next to nothing for it.- Realignment talk not going away

The B1G has won like 1 title in the past twenty years, right? Same as the Big 12?- Realignment talk not going away
