FORT WORTH, Texas — SMU’s interest level in joining the Pac-12 Conference is so high it’s ready to help cover some of the costs.
According to people familiar with the discussions between the Pac-12 Conference and SMU, the private school in Dallas is more than prepared to make certain concessions in order to secure a spot in the league.
One concession would be a willingness to agree to a substantial decrease in revenue sharing for the first few years in the league, as well as potentially covering its own expenses.
