One random thought - create a mega conference of the coastal schools. It looks like Clemson and FSU may defect to the SEC. If so, the ACC is going to blow up anyway. How about the Coastal conference...coastal west cal/furd/ convince usc to stay/ucla/oregon/osu/uw/wsu, coast east - uconn/syracuse/duke/unc/uva/va tech/ga tech/miami. Phuck Fox and ESPN...have Amazon and Apple bid for it. This is where Cal and Stanford could actually flex their alumni muscle. Give sweet heart deals to USC and maybe UNC to keep them loyal.
