New report on a deal in 2022

Kinda underscores the fact the PAC presidents didn't understand the market.

Thanks for the link. Unfortunately that just makes me realize I don’t have enough Pepto on hand. Getting kind of fond of the pink color these past couple weeks.

Wow, I just read Wilner’s recent article on the matter.

Talk about greed, arrogance, and being unrealistic on display by the Pac Presidents. Wilner reported 2 or 3 Presidents were in favor of the original 30 million. Many others in the room thought they should be in the ballpark of the Big 12. The counter to ESPN was reported to be 50 million.

It’s just hard to fathom how they could be so incompetent. I would be pissed if I was the two or three, that wanted the deal from ESPN.

Say what you will about the Big 10 or other conferences being greedy. But one thing for sure is that the Pac was just that as well. I’m not sure this makes me feel any better going forward, but the reality is it wasn’t like the conference was standing on any moral high ground or had the athletes as the priority.

Just everything about the past couple of years has left a bad taste in my mouth.
