The Pac-12 Conference will be following the foot steps of the Big Ten Conference by moving to a conference-only schedule for the 2020 college football season.

And just how are they going to fill a stadium full of people without spreading Coronavirus?

A group of Pac-12 football players are threatening to opt out of games until negotiations with the league regarding concerns about racial injustice, safety during the coronavirus pandemic and other demands are completed.

If guys don't want to play that's on them... now tee the ball up and let's go.

Enough of using the latest social injustice to bargain for things you feel you "deserve".

Don't hold your breath on school admins standing up to the Marxists. We'll be seeing kneeling, slogans on jerseys, and probably slogans on the turf.

According to a report last week from Jon Wilner of The Mercury News, a Pac-12 loan program in the works would provide a maximum of $83 million for each university at a rate of 3.75% over 10 years. It is unclear if Harlan would seek to use the loan program, let alone request the full $83 million from the Pac-12.

Utah is going to regret not signing Jaxson Dart...

I follow HS football religiously, I've coached at Juan Diego, I understand HS football.. and Jaxson Dart is so far ahead of any HS QB I've ever seen it's unreal. In addition to being big, strong, fast, and runs like a deer.... he can make every throw in the book. Right now he is better than any QB on Utah's team. I don't know if Utah could have signed him, perhaps if they had of offered first, but Utah never even tried. Obviously USC sees exactly what I see.

My prediction... Utah will never beat USC when Dart starts the game. Bookmark that bitchez....

Commissioner George Kliavkoff on the state of Pac-12 football and the strategies for a turnaround

https://www.ksl.com/article/50321644/commissioner-george-kliavkoff-on-the-state-of-pac-12-football-and-the-strategies-for-a-turnaround


This is not a pretty article. One quote that was telling......

"I would call it a disappointing season,'' Kliavkoff told the Hotline on Sunday, the day after Utah's loss in an epic Rose Bowl brought 2021 to its conclusion.
"We had our worst nonconference performance, by winning percentage, since 1983, and a very unfortunate bowl season. We have a lot of work to do, and I'm excited to get to it."
The Pac-12 was 9-23 against Football Bowl Subdivision opponents, with 11 losses to the Mountain West and Brigham Young. It went 0-5 in bowl games and failed to produce a playoff team for the fifth consecutive season."

FOX just confirmed that they will pay the $31.7 million to any P5 schools that join the B12. There is no way anyone is paying the PAC more money than the B12 is getting when they can just wait for more schools to jump. Utah needs to figure this out.

The B12 has a clause in their contract that says any P5 teams that join their conference will get an additional full media share ($31.7 million) per school. This lets them add any P5 team to their conference without it cutting into the revenue of the other members in the conference. The PAC really screwed the pooch on this one.
