For creating the 15th (out of 15) most valuable sports network in the US. It's a proud day when the next highest sports network is worth over double the Pac-12 network's net worth and the SEC network is 10x the net worth of the Pac-12 Network.

    And to think he might be an improvement over the previous loser, but he is a typical politician - all talk and no positive action and results.

    You talking Bull Moose or Larry Scott?

    But how is Larry Scott a bad commissioner?

    Only 12.3 million get the Pac 12 network. The next lowest on the list is 37.4 million. But how is Larry Scott a bad commissioner?

    The Direct TV standoff was a huge mistake fueled by ego. That and the Real Housewives reruns directly compete with our friday afternoon games. No way that flies on the west coast.

    It would behoove him to become partners with BSPN, Fox, CBS, or NBC at this point. They have the power and leverage to get into way more than 12,000,000 homes.

    Now that AT&T owns DirecTv, I am hoping Pac12 gets slotted into DTV.

    Reality ...

    Nobody east of Utah gives two shits about the Pac.

    Sure everyone likes wearing Oregon shit because they win ... but nobody respects them.

    Larry Scott has produced the highest revenue projections of ANY Pac Commissioner EVER...and it isn't even close.

    The bigger mistake was building an entire network on his own without partnering with ESPN or Fox, like the Big10 had done, and SEC did later. The SEC waited to see how that strategy would go for the Pac12, saw how big a disaster it was and then elected to copy the route followed by the Big10. Speaks volumes.

    That is also true for the Big 10 commissioner, the SEC, etc. it doesn't mean he doesn't suck. These numbers show that his tv deal has been a disaster.

    I missed The Longhorn Network on that list.
