But How is Larry Scott a Bad Commissioner?

Now I'm no money expert, but that doesn't sound like a good thing.

I know there's some things that could be done to possibly increase revenues. But putting the Pac 12 new on Directv is not the magic bullet everyone thinks it is. The games on the Pac 12 net are the ones that people dont' want to watch outside of their markets for the most part. And they rarely feature USC, UCLA or Stanford that is unless they are playing a small market team like Utah, WSU, Oregon or Oregon St.
I'm not defending Scott, but I'm actually surprised the per school distribution numbers are that HIGH. People on the West coast don't care about Football as compared to the South and Midwest. A new Commish or a deal with Directv won't change that and in fact with more people cord cutting, penetration into households on a pay level will decrease. -
It's as simple as Direct TV and Larry Scott not being able to get the deal done. It's costing the PAC up to 15 million per team, per season. While the SEC and B1G have that deal done and are being paid proportionally.

No it's not. The Pac 12 would maybe net $.50 per household on the high end and it would be in a bundle and not included in basic Sports packages. So penetration would be low.DawgFader said:It's as simple as Direct TV and Larry Scott not being able to get the deal done. It's costing the PAC up to 15 million per team, per season.

but you guys are forgetting the genius of Larry Scott. In about 9 more years, Pac12 will have 100% ownership of ALL their PREMIUM CONTENT and can sell women's grass hockey and men's rowing and team golf content to the highest bidder!!!!
Can you even imagine how much money will be flying around at that auction?

It's not just the Pac 12 network it's the red head step child slots on espn and fox.
Scott is not a serious player and the Pac 12 suffers accordingly
Even though every game is on tv players still want the best exposure
So recruiting suffers and we fall further behind
He sucks -

Is the pac12 trying to follow the wwe network strategy?
Is Vince McMahon once again ahead of the curve, setting trends and blue prints everyone else will follow? -
Too much money make you soft. Remember when Rocky trained in the hotel ballroom and Clubber Lang was going old school?

Sounds like there's an opportunity for the xfl to sneak back in

Penetration is shallow because the PAC is not a big dick playa in the negotiations game.salemcoog said:

It also doesn't help that scotty thinks that fans on any side of the US want to watch game starting at 8 and 9 Pacific. Almost no Pac12 games start at reasonable times that East coast fans would even pay attention and west coast fans start to be too drunk to care. It's a ridiculous model that worked for Boise state and the WAC 10 years ago, but isn't a model to copy.salemcoog said:I know there's some things that could be done to possibly increase revenues.

The ESPN games are on a 7 pm pacific time or Thursday/Friday night. The Big 12 and Pac 12 share Fox. No Pac 12 games seem to get on the ABC 5 pm game of the week either.RaceBannon said:It's not just the Pac 12 network it's the red head step child slots on espn and fox.

It's more than just DirecTV. P12 network is not even available on Comcast in WASHINGTON FUCKING D.C. I am willing to pay for it as part of my comcast subscription cause I hate money and love gay rowboat, BUT I CANT EVEN DO THAT.

If Donald Trump wasn't busy at the moment, he would make a great Pac-12 commish. He would browbeat ESPN into submission, he would negotiate new contracts, he would promote the conference like crazy, he would get into Twitter wars with the commissioners from other conferences. As an added bonus, from time-to-time, Ivanka would be roaming the Husky Stadium sideline.
Trump would get the Pac-12 into elite status while creating enemies and getting ridiculed along the way. In short, he'd make the Pac-12 great again. -

There is no way in hell the Pac-12 revenue will ever be near the SEC and BIG. We will always be rubbing shoulders with the ACC and XII. Also, Larry Scott had the biggest dick in the bar a few years back when the Pac-12 deal was first signed.
The Pac-10 -- soon to officially become the Pac-12 -- has agreed to a 12-year television contract with ESPN and Fox that will more than triple its media rights fees and be the most valuable for any conference in college sports.

I just don't get my thong all twisted up because we're 10 million or so behind the SEC. It's always going to be that way. I like that the Pac-12 has 100% ownership in the Pac12 nets. Who knows what the future holds with subscription TV and the Pac-12 is well positioned for what comes.
I'll be the first to admit I'm a Larry Scott dick sucker since he pulled us out of the college football ghetto and changed my life. -
I think Larry Scott forgets the first 6 inches are always consensual.salemcoog said:

100% ownership of what....3-4 intriguing football games each year is worth this fucktardrd network strategy that emphasizes China and fucks the actual fans? -
Larry Scott's secret plan to win the war with the SEC went tits up when DeLoss Dodds told him to fuck off, Texas is keeping its own network.
