I've heard there is a little buyer's remorse on CU's part and some backlash from UCLA affiliates petitioning not to ratify CU and Utah. I imagine if CU stays for an 11 team conference season, the Big XII will petition for another Championship game if it doesn't add another team. Adding BYU knowing CU is leaving puts a little pressure to find a suitable replacement right away. Further, the money projections were for a 10 team conference. I imagine those projections might go down a bit if we are at 11 or 12.
BYU and CU would allow the conference to claim the Denver and Salt Lake markets. It would be a serious blow to the PAC-10 if CU backed out, who would either have to find a replacement for CU or drop Utah since 11 teams doesn't get it its championship game. It was reported that CU was at the Big XII TV Network talks. If CU asked to be let back in, would you want them?
