Pac-12 Commissioner Larry Scott Striving Towards an Enhanced On-Field Product
The Pac-12 has some issues that only winning can truly solve, but commissioner Larry Scott is making a valiant effort to improve the conference's product both on and off the field.
HOLLYWOOD, Cali. – Larry Scott is not in denial. His conference has a problem. In fact, it has—plural—problems. The Pac-12 is operating at a financial disadvantage to most of its Power 5 peers. The Pac-12’s TV network does not reach enough households, both because of the structure of the deal and a thing called time zones. The Pac-12 is selling parts of itself for upwards of $500 million. The Pac-12 last season had a high-ranking administrator (who is still employed) muck up its officiating review process.
