'The school is mulling a potential move to the Big 12, according to sources, and Wednesday's meeting represents a potential step in the process for university officials to approve a move there, according to sources. Colorado has discussed athletics in a private session multiple times in recent months, but sources indicate the tenor of this meeting is different."

As a PAC team fan, I watched the Big Ten and Big XII media deal rumors and how quickly and precisely and positively they came, and spent the last year seeing just the opposite for us; no solid details, no real positive news or leaks at all. It never felt like there was ever any substance being floated out there for us, and for me personally it's felt like Kliavkoff has done nothing but string everybody along.

And maybe it's his job to do anything to keep the member schools together, and maybe vaguery and delay were his only weapons, and maybe he's been holding out and hoping for something agreeable to eventually materialize, but it sure has been a long year+ on this nothing-burger he's been trying to sell us on. I suspect Colorado leaving will deliver a big blow to that plan, if that's all he's been up to.
