    according to Wilner (and the other 6 reporters who attended L Scott Un's press conference yesterday), there is NOTHING that can be done about the fact that 90% of football games will take place at night (and don't blame Scott for that because he doesn't work at the tv networks setting the schedule. He merely got the contract done to get our games on TV...I guess for that we should be thankful, right Mr. Herbstreit?).

    Anyhow, all is not lost because new "streaming" options are in the pipeline!




    Any guesses as to where the Pac12 football games will be available in the Fall?

    My yuan is on Weibo, WeChat, Baidu, or TenCent. If Scott is really aggressive in his innovation rollout, we actually might be seeing Pac12 games on some regional Canadian platforms too! Exciting to know that we may be able to drive a mere 2 hours north (don't forget your passport!!) and watch a game...that said, good luck getting a Canadian sports bar to put not hockey on a tv.

    Anyway, Larry got this guys.
    There are some hotties on Canadian sports TV.




    Haha... Eastlake class of 99.

    Direc-TV will never happen. They will lowball the P12 Network so much every other provider will want to renegotiate their contract. Scott fucked up not signing them immediately.

    Hopefully he signs with a few other streaming services. Sling is alright, but I'd like to have more options.

    here's the thing...DirectTV does simple customer research and knows how many customers are interested in certain types of content then they do a little old math calculation about how much their subscribers will pay in order to have access to that channel and if the content producer charges more than the minimum margin they can make on that spread then no deal.

    Scott fails to realize that not enough people care about the Pac12 and even less care about sports not called football.

    He's made too many assumptions.

    I mean fuck, everyone on this site is a hardcore football fan yet how many of us actually get Pac12 Network? If you don't get 100% of this audience then you really don't have a good enough product.
