With USC/UCLA move to bigX, seems like there may be a need for a “new” transfer portal to provide some sort of common rule set for the ongoing re-alignments. With presumably UW, UO, ND, and perhaps some random ACC schools not wanting to be left out of the big boy club, I’m thinking a possible next step in the conference evolution may be for a school to “buy-out” an existing conference member school (especially once the new TV deals are made).
