Big 12 ADDING Sacramento State in Expansion, TV Revenue Move After $35 Million NIL Boost Would Rock?

NIL Investment Push: A collective of Sacramento business, labor, and civic leaders, along with notable alumni, have formed a group called "SAC12" with the specific goal of raising significant NIL funds to support Sacramento State Athletics' FBS ambitions, particularly targeting the Pac-12 initially. While initial goals were set at $75 million over 10 years, the group announced raising $35 million in NIL commitments in a short period, demonstrating significant community interest in elevating the program. The Big 12 Question: While the initial and more public push was towards the Pac-12 (due to geographic proximity and media market), Sacramento State President Luke Wood recently stated in a Reddit AMA that joining the Big 12 is a "stretch goal." The rationale for potentially targeting the Big 12 down the line could include: National Profile: The Big 12 has established itself as a strong football conference with national relevance. Potential for Media Revenue: As the college football landscape continues to evolve, the Big 12's media rights deals could be attractive. Long-Term Stability: The Big 12 appears to have a more stable future than the current iteration of the Pac-12. Challenges and Realities: On-Field Performance: While there have been periods of success in the FCS, consistent winning at the FBS level is a significant hurdle. Recent seasons have been less successful. Sustained Investment: Maintaining the level of financial investment required for FBS competitiveness, including facilities, coaching salaries, and NIL, will be crucial long-term. Conference Invitation: Even with investments, earning an invitation to a Power Conference like the Big 12 is not guaranteed and depends on various factors, including market appeal, sustained success, and the conference's strategic goals. Sacramento State's current plan to go independent suggests that a Power Conference invitation is not imminent. In conclusion, Sacramento State is making significant strides in investing in its football program, with a clear ambition to reach the FBS level. While their current focus is on independence, the long-term "stretch goal" of joining a conference like the Big 12 acknowledges the potential benefits of Power Conference affiliation. However, this journey is in its early stages, and sustained success on and off the field, along with the evolving landscape of college football, will ultimately determine if these investments can earn them a coveted spot in a major conference.
