Coug Center: Let me start with the obvious: Pac-12 Commissioner Larry Scott needs to be fired. Tomorrow, preferably. Today would be even better! The list of reasons over the years is too numerous to count but news that nearly 90 Pac-12 Networks employees would be furloughed and the conference’s entire digital team would be cut loose is just the cherry on top of the other, pyramid of cherries sitting on top of the cow manure sundae that is his tenure.
The conference will be having cash flow issues just like all of their member institutions to be sure but considering the 12% pay cut Scott took to $4.6 million annually still leaves him as the highest paid commissioner in college athletics by a country mile, it’s a horrible look.
