The PAC 2 has filed a motion today for preliminary injunction against the other 10 schools seeking to have control over the board of directors for the PAC unless the court eventually rules in favor of the 10. What the PAC is counting on is that their case is so strong that it appears that they will win and the court acknowledges that in a way with this injunction without actually making a final ruling. The injunction says that there are only 2 true members of the PAC left, and they should have control over the Board of Directors for the PAC. The other 10 schools expected and wanted the PAC to be disbanded and the assets of the conference which is now calculated to be over $100 million to be equally divided between all of the schools and the PAC 2 are saying the conference is not being disbanded and the other 10 schools cannot force them into disbanding the conference. This isn't new information other than it is a step in the court case. Evidently mediation didn't work out, and I am assuming the way that it didn't, the schools were in a non-binding mediation situation. Everything, the conference contracts, the way other schools that left were treated and emails by the PAC commissioner all support the PAC 2's case, so it certainly seems that the PAC 2 have the strongest case but the question comes back to how long can they hold out? If they are able to schedule games with the MWC then that takes some of the pressure off, but there is still the money part, and the 10 schools have way deeper pockets than the PAC 2.
