Message: [QUOTE="jostar1, post: 4553832, member: 1737"] MH ver3@MH ver3 · 2h Hearing GK struck out with the Amazon/ESPN deal and it’s not even going to the table for a vote-presidents asking him to go back to the networks and negotiate it higher. Apple negotiations keep putting along at a snails pace. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 2h I think it’s almost time to start the Pac12 doomsday clock. We are at 5 minutes to PacMidnight. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 2h Now Pac12 ceos are deciding whether or not to push that deadline further ahead into summer. Some are for it. Most are against. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 2h It was suggested to GK to do whatever it takes to get ESPN to put their original offer back into play. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 1h My source that has been in talks with someone in the know tells me the Pac12 issues are cultural at the highest level. There’s astonished disbelief happening at a large scale. Either that or willful ignorance. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 1h The only schools not completely blinded by their own arrogance are Washington and Oregon who are literally out on the first flight to Chicago. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 1h Athletic Departments are different story for the most part and there is a paradoxical dichotomy happening between them and the presidents. MH ver3@MH ver3 · 1h Most of the communications B12 receives have been through the ADs and there is a sense of panic and desperation-even resignation there. [/QUOTE]
