I’m assuming you mean the alliance between the Big Ten and Pac 12 and ACC where they all agreed to work together to keep conferences intact while at the same time the Big Ten was getting ready to poach USC and UCLA and help destroy the Pac 12 by taking Oregon and Washington

Sure, man it was like Covid era, but not the first year, in reaction to Oklahoma Texas and they were supposed to do scheduling agreements and all this other **** and none of it happened and then they stole USC & UCLA while the alliance was still technically alive

Yeah but it is nothing compared to the realignment thread started by Regal on Warchant. They are now up to 3567 pages and one of their more recent topics was discussing how "painful" it was in 2025 to watch Miami reap the financial benefits of the CFP and brand strength ACC financial distribution which was all due to FSU's law suit. Also lamenting how successful Mario has been in building a foundation for continued success while Norvell has sucked the momentum from that program at a record level. Entertaining.
