Nope. He was hired from pro tennis, iirc.

Umm...no, didn’t Scott get the P12 job cuz he got a massive new tv deal for Women’s tennis or something.

I can't imagine he'd be offered.
Some grade A trolling
I can't think of a better pair
Don't hate any name on that list... except ASU

Back when Williams sisters were one of the best things on tv, shortly after annika.
the rumored list is ok.
the stanford guy wouldn't be my first choice because they have all the ****ing resources in the world. that is not the case for the public schools in the conference.
the asu guy would not be my second choice because america's stripper U has like zero academic guidelines.
there should be a balance between all of it.
anyone would be better than larry ****ing ****-tard scott.
and, i say this, of course, without any idea of the detailed resumes of any of the candidates, but having met scott, the bar is not high. seriously.

You lost me at F—-kers
Good riddance. I'm the idiot for thinking he'd do a good job. As far as replacement candidates, I'll defer to you guys. I didn't know about the tennis stuff, I don't watch it outside of Wimbledon.
Those Nubs games were the best thing in a long time.
Always BUFF
I post stupid ****
Check
Expand
Negotiate
UH should be the focal point East in expansion conversation.
This scenario was discussed when the B12 blew apart and we all laughed at MO for trying to get into the B10+1.
IMO, the top priority is a long term plan for the Pac 12 Network. Someone with media experience, or at least the business savvy to select the right subject matter experts who can offer guidance is the top priority for me.
I don't have an opinion on whether the best prospect is to maintain control and ownership vs partner with an established media company. I'm sure either option is viable, but have no idea of the particulars required to make that decision.

Hope not. Really think we need a big dawg that’s been there before and knows the big boy game better. Like the Alabama AD, or Gene Smith at OSU. We got a lot of catching up to do, and quicker than RG has helped CU catch up to USC and Oregon. Or Utah.

That said, he’s a better choice than Scott.

I mean, the man single handedly brought back B1G football last season. Might be holding out for the Nebraska AD job though. That seems a better fit.
I kind of feel like RG is the "safety school" if the Pac can't lure somebody with big media experience.
Nah, everyone here was rubbing his knob 10 years ago.
He has to be the favorite I imagine
Hope so.
As much as it sounds great for someone from BIG or SEC land to take over, I'm not sure if the success of those conference networks and TV deals are all that applicable to the Pac 12.
