Let’s hope Jones, Gilmore and Kessenich are nothing but professional Saturday night. (I’m confident Gilmore, at least, will clear the bar.)
Let’s hope, especially in light of Jones’ tweets, that they have been reminded of that need by their superiors, who have a $1.5 billion stake in the well-being of Pac-12 football.
Over the years, the Pac-12 has typically handled disagreements with other entities in a private setting, and that’s understandable — it’s usually the smartest course.
But if ESPN’s crew crosses the line again, the conference needs to hit back. It needs to stand up for its own, publicly and forcefully, after what has been a brutal few months on the PR front.
