Looks like the alliance between the ACC, Big Ten and PAC-12 is going to be announced at 2:00 on Tuesday (EST).
According to the link above, “the PAC-12 is driving this,” which is very interesting. A few months ago, Larry Scott was still the commissioner of the PAC-12 and we cannot imagine him driving any such thing. New commissioner George Kliavkoff, who comes from the entertainment world, is quickly and decisively distinguishing himself from his preening predecessor, who seemed more interested in a nice league office than, say, a functional TV network.
And of course football is driving it too.
