Watch: Pitt's Place Among Conference Realignment Rumors
In this story:
PITTSBURGH -- USC and UCLA set off alarms all over college athletics last week when the two iconic Pac-12 schools announced that they would ditch their traditional homes and join the Big 10. It is move driven almost entirely by money created with big-time football teams, and that fact threatens to leave some schools behind. The Pitt Panthers are part of the so-called "middle class" of Power Five athletic departments that could be left on the chopping block as the borders of college sports shift.
The Panthers will either have to help defend their home conference, the ACC, or prepare a resume worthy of joining the SEC or Big 10.
