I give TT 2 games of garbage time this season. If he doesn't show us anything like last season it's time to move on. He's honestly had all the time in the world to show some kind of improvement.

I wonder how much more whining there will be tomorrow now that this happened today... Oregon welcomes a slew of prospects from Washington and FSP 247SPORTS.COM

This might be the reason for the abrupt departure. https://deadline.com/2023/05/usc-athletic-director-mike-bohn-resigns-after-department-investigation-1235373763/amp/

Big surprise, it's past mid-day Wednesday and no "huge announcement".

I'd argue the level of competition is higher in Michigan than in Arizona.

Losing Dante Moore at the last minute really hurt. IMO he's the most college-ready QB in the 2023 class...a 4 year high school starter and 2 state championships. You don't earn that spot based on potential, he has the goods and it shows.

This is surprising after he previously postponed his announcement. I wonder if this means Michael Van Buren is going elsewhere?

6'6" 295+lb defensive tackle on Oregon's lineup? Yes please!

Seems like Ohio State is getting the most bang for their buck at the moment.

The CW is channel 11-1 OVA in Washington. Locally it's called KSTW and broadcast in HD (1080i). I'm watching it right now.

#1 Hiring Larry Scott

It's also critically important that Will Stein identifies solid 2nd and 3rd receiving options, Troy Franklin will not be enough. Whether that takes the form of Treshon Holden/Terrance Furgeson or some other duo combination, Nix needs 2 other receivers that will have at minimum 500 yards each of receiving for the season.

At this point I've pretty much tuned out all the news regarding the Pac12 media deal. Whatever happens will happen and when it happens I'll tune back in. Until then I just peruse articles about recruiting, spring practice, and observations about how the offense/defense will be for the Fall.

Yup. Cristobal's conservative playcalling and insistence on a power run offense pulled from the '90s really hurt Oregon at the most crucial times.

I also posted this in another thread but it sounds like FOX is now back in negotiations in some kind of capacity.

Interesting, apparently FOX has jumped back into the fray. Might explain the lack of news about a potential deal today.

I can't say I blame him. He's human and everyone gets frustrated at times. He was obviously frustrated at his team's play through the season and particularly against Wisconsin. Plus, it's not like he was pulling a Bobby Knight and throwing chairs onto the court!

Sounds like Dodd is either paid off or desperate for clicks.

One has to wonder how it would've shaken out had Chip Kelly were able to get MM to Philadelphia when he coached there.

I can't add any more than that, this is exactly what I'm thinking.

I was hoping they'd be more aggressive with expansion than just 2 schools. It'll be interesting to see which teams bubble to the surface.

Stations - ION IONTELEVISION.COM A list of ION stations looks like it's available just about everywhere in the US. Shows | ION IONTELEVISION.COM ION's line up of current shows on-air. Check out our schedule page to see upcoming airdates. Their programming slate is obviously tilted towards a narrow demographic however. If you're into crime shows then you'll love ION lol

The entertaining part of that Twitter thread is the responses, mostly negative concerning what kind of content they currently see on ION. It's completely gone over their heads that they all have direct access to that channel so any Pac12 content that goes on there would be instantly available.

Given the title includes an analyst role, he's probably there to give Terry a lot of advice off the field and let him implement on the practice field. Good way to get around the 10 assistant coach limit.

Well that's an interesting one. ION is on multiple streaming platforms (like YouTube TV as you mention) but also available on the cable networks like Xfinity, DirectTV, and Dish Network. I have Sling so I've seen ION in passing as I flip through the channels. It's also available free over the air if you have an antenna. So they have mass distribution all over the place, the question for me would be what their viewership numbers look like? The few times I've looked at ION I've only ever seen re-runs of tv shows. If ION decides to throw a ton of money at the Pac12 and market the heck out of it then it could work.
