The state trial court largely entered the TRO Wazzu and OSU sought. 

Love the thoughts about what Stanford should have done instead of join the ACC, but I'd post those in the ACC thread instead of here. 

Also: as much as I agree with y'all in spirit, unless and until football breaks off, not being in a P4 conference would have decimated our non-revenue sports recruiting. This was a bridge until sanity can be restored. Cobbling together the MWPac-8 would have been a bridge to nowhere.

I wonder about that. Stanford has superb programs and an unmatchable 40-year-decision brand. I think they would have come here anyways.

I do think it will massively improve our basketball recruiting, at least on the men's side. Possibly have a positive effect on soccer.
