Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

Will Larry Scott's legacy include being the guy that drove USC out of the Pac-12?

    didn't read it but there is no doubt that USC doesn't need to suffer through Larry Scott's reign. If I was USC I'd be fucking gone tomorrow from this conference.

    The rest of the Pac12 schools can only sit and pray that USC doesn't leave them.

    I have been baffled for years why the universities do not recognize this and how Larry Scott is such a direct reason for it.

    The Pac12 is literally driving itself towards being a hybrid Ivy League Lite + Mountain West... and no network will pay big tv money to broadcast it and no advertisers will pay big money to advertise on it. He is literally destroying the Pac12 with his strategy.

    Now, that all said, if USC goes independent you can bet that Oregon joins the ACC.

    tick, tick, tick....

    Its more likely that the 4 California schools go somewhere together. In 1960 they banded with UW to form a new league out of the old Pacific Coast Conference on the way to the Pac 8

    Not sure if anyone still wants UW. Probably prefer UO these days. Thanks UW shitheads over the last 30 years.

    Our? plan to merge the Pac 8 schools as the West Division and ASU and UA joining 6 Big 8 schools in the East would have been the answer.

    Instead we get fucking Utah and CU

    Schools would want UW for its academics.

    My thought on the bold part is that the university leadership across the conference is mostly disinterested in sports and looks down its collective nose at the schools in the other power 5 conferences.

    i get that perspective, but when they are always complaining about being broke it makes no fucking sense why they wouldn't look at athletics as the cash cow. instead they basically run a strategy that increases the # of international students each year while reducing the opportunities for in-state kids to qualify and we are watching these wonderful American universities turn into private institutions for Asian kids.
