You laugh now, but the 12Pac will leapfrog the SunBelt's media deal.
if he leapfrogs the big 12, I'm gonna be surprised at this point. I hope to hell it's not him.

He was probably higher than I was last night when he said that
Wilner forgot the sarcasm font.
JFC, why is this clown still in charge? What's with this Sun Belt bull****? I don't whether to laugh or cry?

That's 9am Saturday in China. Gotta give Alibaba and the mass amount of Chinese who LS thinks watch this conference the "Bloody Larry" treatment!
Larry’s hoping the P12 presidents catch changnesia.

I talked to former USC Associate AD about this very question and he said they like the lack of competition on Friday night. Sounded dumb to me, but they didn't want to compete with other CCGs on Saturdays.
Yeah it looks great on tv when (in normal years) the stadium is more than half empty at the star of the game due to rush hour traffic.

Honestly, in our conference, the game could be at 1pm on Saturday and it would still be half empty if it's at Levi.

Needs to be in Las Vegas. As do the offices for the PAC 12.
Ridiculous. I don't think any CCGs take place at the same time.

Because Sir Larry Scott had the foresight to go to Friday so we don't have to compete for eyeballs with the might MWC.
I get wanting to have your own time slot but as someone mentioned on here a few years ago, having it on a Friday night just feels small time, like the WAC Championship or something.
On Championship Saturday you have 3 timeslots and 5 P5 games, so you're going to be competing with at least 1 other conference whenever you play the game. But even with that I still think the Pac12 would get more exposure and attention playing their game on Saturday.
This year's a little different with the SEC playing in Primetime, but the past few years it's been the Big 12 at noon, SEC at 4 and then the ACC and B1G games at 7:30/8. So the ACC and B1G have gone up against each other recently.
I feel like the pac should probably just play super late on Saturday in Vegas and the atmosphere will be on fire lol
I wouldn’t be surprised to see the pac go straight up against the big 12 in the future
Larry Scott is saying pretty much the same things that led us to being in this situation with how much $ the conference gets compared to the other P5 conferences. It's all about him and no one else. The conference's presidents are too pathetic to do something about it.
It is not how much money the conference is getting that concerns me. It is how you can watch the games is what concerns me. If the new media rights deal means the end of the P12N and third tier games on ESPN+ for instance, I would consider that an upgrade over what we have right now.

Meh. Does anyone really think Larry Scott will be commissioner in a year? I don't. Maybe @manhattanbuf could set some odds and we can wager on it.
In any case, the horse you're beating's been dead longer than Husker football.

I actually do. This only adds to an ever-growing list of reasons why LS should go, and he's still employed. If anything happens here, I'll believe it when I see it.
The Big12 game is usually at noon EST and I don't think the Pac12 would play their championship game at 9am on the west coast
I think they will be fine. Apparently not as big of a deal as we all thought. I actually wish the ACC would move to noon, why the need to play so late? Then the pac and big could play the late game
Are there any conference HQs in states the conference doesn’t have a team in?
Scott commish next year +150
