The Pac-12 intends to have a new commissioner in place when Larry Scott steps down at the end of June, according to Oregon president Michael Schill, chair of the conference’s CEO Group. “This is a plum job,” Schill told the Hotline on Thursday, one day after the announcement that Scott’s tenure would come to an end this summer. “We’re going to move expeditiously.” The first step is to hire an executive placement firm to assist with the search — preferably one with college sports experience. At that point, Schill said, the conference will craft the job description. Central to that process is determining whether the conference would be best served with someone from the sports media industry or an experienced administrator from the world of collegiate athletics. “That will be an inclusive process, meeting with our various stakeholders as well as the presidents and chancellors to really talk about what we’re looking for,” Schill said. “At a minimum, we want someone who has executive capacity, who has financial acumen, who cares about students and higher education, who can articulate the values of higher education.
