Canzano: Pac-12's next expansion move must be focused
Mountain West set to keep UNLV and Air Force... what's next?
Decide for yourself what lengths you’d go to for survival when faced with an existential crisis. The Mountain West decided to throw a bag of cash at UNLV and Air Force to save itself.
The two schools reportedly made a commitment to the Mountain West late on Wednesday night. The seven remaining MW schools are expected to sign a binding agreement on Thursday. I don’t blame anyone who wants to wait to see it in writing. But that’s where things sit.
Give Gloria Nevarez credit for her quick thinking. A lot of people would have seen all that smoke billowing down the hallways of her burning conference and hustled to the nearest fire exit. Instead, the MW commissioner crawled to her desk, found the keys to a forklift, and then used it to haul a pallet stacked with $100 bills back into the place, smothering the flames with Benjamins.
The Pac-12’s next move?
