A major hurdle is reworking schedules if Arizona schools join Pac in 1978, with WAC schools resisting breaking bindings to five-year games. Arizona State proposes dropping a $25,000 football guarantee and sharing Bates receipts to raise revenue. Dave Strack supports non conference teams being paid on a split gate basis rather than fixed guarantees.
