  “Surely doomed to not send a single team to the NCAA Tournament?”

  It's true that Washington State delivered one of the better Pac-12 football seasons in recent memory

  
  
  Fuck the local media’s obsession with propping up a team that can’t even win its own division.

  Why not? The PAC-12 is already the Kmart/Toys-R-Us of football conferences. Lever the bitch up under the auspices of ‘investing in the brand’ or ‘investing in the product.’ Pay a huge dividend to the PE shop with trivial amounts to the schools. Have the schools ‘invest’ in mediocre coaching staffs at premium prices. Watch the revenue drop and WSU, Colorado, Oregon State, UCLA and Cal all drop football in 5 years. Declare victory and walk away with a 20% IRR over 5 years. #thescript

  Terrible article. I literally can't believe he said no basketball team will go to the tourney.
  
  Must be on drugs.
