Congratulations, Larry Scott. This week, you finally did something universally praised by Pac-12 fans: Leave. Larry Scott — A It says something about the Pac-12 commissioner’s 11-year tenure that the immediate reaction to Wednesday night’s announcement Scott would step away from his post this summer was a series of self high-fives across social media. While Scott has been unfairly criticized for some of the conference’s struggles on the field during the past decade — he’s not the one who keeps giving USC football coach Clay Helton more money — there’s little doubt plenty can be laid at his feet. The Pac-12 Network launched on his watch had fewer subscribers than The Pursuit Channel or Z Living as of 2019, according to Jon Wilner of the San Jose Mercury News. The 12-year, $3 billion television deal he struck with ESPN and FOX was lapped by the Big Ten and SEC well before its 2024 expiration date. And the lavish Pac-12 headquarters he decided to stick smack dab in the middle of the downtown San Francisco is the most gratuitous money suck in all of college athletics.
