Is it too much to hope that he cleans up officiating? Or, minimally, keeps his buddies out of the replay booths?
It would be nice to see him get away from the cronyism that marked Scott's time. Handling TV rights has to be front and center, though.
The Pac 12 Network debacle has dragged the revenue and exposure of the conference down so much. Job 1 has to be getting that settled to expand revenue and exposure in football and basketball.
That will hopefully assist the goal of making the Pac relevant in revenue sports. Revenue and exposure will hopefully help recruiting, retaining talented coaches and lead to results.
Oh, I agree. That should be number one, followed by trying to see how to get out of the lease in San Francisco, and then he can clean up officiating, which would make for a much more enjoyable product to watch.
100%. Hopefully the natural re-HQing to Las Vegas will occur pretty fast. Now that Allegiant exists, all the CCG's should be in Vegas. It's so perfect for conference championships and tourneys.
It would be the first smart proactive move the Pac has made in a bit to embrace gambling as well. College sports hate it, but it's the future and there has to be money potential in the right avenues.
Lets throw in a interconference basketball deal ala the Big10/ACC Big12/SEC
His desire to add eyes to the Pac...use Vegas as a neutral site CFB showcase for the Pac.
Maybe try a interconference holiday basketball tourney there. That idea's always interested me. You have 22 teams in the Pac and Big 12. 6 play in games plus a 4 round tourney over a week's time before Christmas. It guarantees 4-5 P5 games and hopefully generates 2x the conference tourney crowd.
It would be nice to have someone who creates events for Pac teams so we're not stuck in anonymity.

At least there’s won’t be a “Fuck ******” thread for a while. Who knows how to spell or pronounce the dude’s name yet?

Candrea and the UW coach are also very upset about the bad seedings. UDub especially, ranked 5th coming into the last weekend of the season and is a 16 seed.

But yeah. These solutions were obvious and anyone but Larry Scott can apparently do this.

What are the chances Larry Scott would ever show up and take a picture with the UofA women's volleyball team? There would probably be a better chance that Hell would freeze over before that happened.
