And continuing the soap opera, Bill Snyder seems to imply that Colorado wants back into the Big 12.

From the Neuheisel quotation, he seemed to be primarily referring to UCLA getting out from under the USC shadow the way that A&M feels they got out of the UT shadow by jumping to the SEC. In some ways that may be true, but UCLA seems far more tied to it's conference relationships than did A&M and jumping to the SEC is a far different financial and status proposition than heading to the Big 12.

The article goes on to speculate about both LA schools hopping to the Big 12, and makes the case by making up a lot of financial assertions out of thin air. It's certainly true that the LA schools have a lot of market clout by carrying along Los Angeles, but not clear that value is inherently higher in the Big 12; or that the rest of the Big 12 adds more value than the rest of the Pac 12.
