PAC 12 network has been losing money . Many cable networks have been removing from service. FYI.
The PAC12 network is quite messed up. Not being on DirecTV was a mistake. Also, for those with local cable in the PAC12 area, you get a local feed, like PAC12 Arizona, or PAC12 Oregon (or Northwest or whatever - I wouldn't know because I have DirecTV). But I do know that folks who are general sports fans here in AZ (and have the network) get pissed that they can't watch an Oregon game unless it happens to be the "special" game on the main feed or playing the local team.
As a result, it pays very poorly for the conference schools, from what I hear. Worst of any of the Conference TV stations.
I don't know if the real problem is it is too regional (west coast) or simply the inept conference negotiations that gets it kicked off of cable networks. But it stinks, because our friends who have Dish love having it, of course. And I'm pretty sure they get all the various "local" PACs, as well.
