Not if Larry Scott's Scheme is successfully implemented.
One would hope he has prospects identified to invest the $750 million into PAC-12 partial ownership since he has the Presidents of the Schools going along with this. One would hope he has media distributors lined up to pay huge for PAC-12 media rights 5 years from now since he has not identified anyone who would be willing today.
If not the PAC-12 can always grovel back to ESPN, but they'll find that they will get much less than he would have gotten a few months ago. And in that scenario, they probably would lose members. They would merge with the Mountain West with the remnants and somehow go along as G5 level. [Post edited by HOO86 at 04/13/2019 12:32AM]
