Mike LukeHOST
The reason that I like Brett Yormark is that I think he wasn't scared to try things outside the box.
Mike LukeHOST
I think that he had a vision, and it was so much different than it was under Kliopkoff and Larry Scott.
Mike LukeHOST
I could absolutely see where he might have rubbed some people the wrong way, but I kind of like Brett Yormark, to be honest with you.
Jason ScheerHOST
I think it's very important in this day and age, and I get it.
Kevin GrahamGUEST
I thought it was the other guy before him.
Kevin GrahamGUEST
Wasn't there a guy before him? Larry Scott.
Kevin GrahamGUEST
No, they got rid of him.
Kevin GrahamGUEST
Larry Scott.
Kevin GrahamGUEST
Because he
Patrick KinahanHOST
couldn't get DirecTV to pick up the Pac-12 network.
Ari TemkinGUEST
And I know we've talked about it, but I would say his greatest accomplishment was getting that TV deal done and going early and budging the Pac-12, and that led to the corner four schools joining the Big 12.
Ben CriddleHOST
I mean, Larry Scott is the bad player there.
Ben CriddleHOST
Like, Klyavkov just inherited what he inherited.
Ben CriddleHOST
He couldn't do anything with that.
Ben CriddleHOST
You're totally right.
Ben CriddleHOST
Larry Scott, he was the guy that fed.
Ben CriddleHOST
Klyavkov was left

holding the bag.

Mitch HarperHOST
I just don't think that's ever going to be a market to tap into.
Mitch HarperHOST
It kind of screamed Larry Scott in the Pac-12 when he was saying, we're going to go into China.
Mitch HarperHOST
Okay, how'd that work out? So there's just been some miscalculations.
Mitch HarperHOST
I like the risk, some of it, but you wonder if he's kind of hit his ceiling with the corporate sponsor earning potential.
Bryan DriskellHOST
Whether this is a good or a bad thing is going to be determined by who they replace him with.
Bryan DriskellHOST
You know, the Pac-12 had a not very good commissioner, and then they replaced him with Larry Scott, who was an even worse commissioner.
Bryan DriskellHOST
And, you know, so...
Bryan DriskellHOST
It just depends on who they replace him with.
Cody WilliamsHOST
A ratings bonanza waiting to happen.
John BuhlerHOST
Larry Scott's just so happy.
John BuhlerHOST
Watching tennis.
John BuhlerHOST
He's going to switch over from watching tennis to watch this game.
Jackson BurkettHOST

Jackson BurkettHOST
And that was Larry Scott, the commissioner.
Jackson BurkettHOST
Yeah, the TV deal just was crummy.
Jackson BurkettHOST
They were
Steven GodfreyHOST
Okay.
Steven GodfreyHOST

hotel room.
Andy StaplesHOST
I mean, but who among us doesn't?
