LA Times: Pac-12 collapse was Kalen DeBoer's fault

Of course Phil wanted to keep it together even with a shitty sub deal. It would have been his best chance to win what he covets most a natty. Tim’s a kicking.
 
I read that yesterday. UW was actually leading the way out when it came time to do so.

What are the odds that the President that listened to his AI professor’s assessment of market value to be $50 mill per team was also UW’s?

81%????

Because the day that President convinced the others of this, was the day the PAC 12 really died.

Certainly could have been UW. They’ve had a recent track record of putting out beefed up projections that kinda fell flat the last few years.

Seeing as how the president was implied to be a man via pronouns, it probably wasn't Cauce.

Anyone know what channel the Pac-12 network is on?

Is that channel still a thing? I thought they would’ve shut down business operations immediately like OceanGate after the implosion of the conference.
 
Does Phil Knight even understand what streaming is?

Anyway, as I've said in other places, I can buy the argument that there was a benefit to Apple given its streaming ambitions and the number of its devices which are in the hands of American consumers on a day to day basis. "Everybody knows" that streaming is the future.

But it's still a basic product strategy problem with distribution networks. Pac-12 content (the product) does not have high demand and therefore consumers will not seek it out regardless of its distribution network. Content like NFL games does have high demand and therefore they can get away with more streaming. Without that power the product is dependent on its distribution network for exposure, hence the need for linear.

UW did the right thing and I agree with DeBoer's comments above. But I will say that streaming is the future and Apple has the biggest distribution network in the world. That future may not happen for 5+ more years, but it is the future.

No, they're still broadcasting games this season (football, basketball, etc.).

It'll probably die next July
 
I read that shitpiece article yesterday. The whole thing reeked of Kliavkoff going off the record in order to preserve his future prospects.

I don't want this future of which you speak.

I've checked from time to time and it seems they've gone into just showing every replace from every sport they have.

They will probably do live coverage for football and basketball for the final year.
