With new TV and merchandising deals now in place, the PAC12 commish expects schools to be reeling in around $30 million per year. 30 million freaking dollars per year! This is after making a whopping 1.5 mil/per in the MWC.

Amazing change for both schools who went in different directions in just one stinking year.

Agreed.

It's going to be interesting 5 or so years from now to see the landscape of college football in the state of Utah and the impact of these moves.

I can't imagine it's anything but greener pastures for both schools.
