Pac-12 Conference: Record revenue, per-school splits, Scott’s compensation and more
The Pac-12 released its latest 990s on Friday – the Friday of a holiday weekend, no less. There was no reason to bury the news. Quite the opposite, in fact. The Hotline obtained a copy of the 990s, and here’s a look: * The conference reported $334 million in revenue for the 2012-13 fiscal year (the first under the new ESPN/FOX mega-media rights deal). The total isn’t merely a record for the Pac-12; it’s a record for any college conference — approximately $15 million more than the Big Ten and $20 million more than the SEC (per conference revenue data reported by USA Today). * The Pac-12’s jump to the top of the heap is partly a function of timing, specifically the start of its new TV deal relative to current deals for the SEC and B1G.

Guessing along with Pac-12 commissioner Larry Scott is a risky business, fraught with the potential for the guesser (in this case: me) to look very silly. But guessing along with Larry Scott is also fun. So here we go … *** The original timeline for a detailed announcement on the Pac-12 Network structure was late June/early July. But that has been pushed back-back-back, to the point that I’d be shocked if the conference has any substantive news before, or during, the football media event in Los Angeles on Tuesday. In fact, we’re probably looking at the middle of next month — and it could be later. The network is scheduled to launch in Aug. ’12, and it will take about a year, according to Scott, to get everything in place. But his priority has to be getting the right structure, even if it takes longer than desired. *** Scott and deputy commish Kevin Weiberg face a tough balancing act. The network is for the long haul, but the best broadcast structure for … [Read more...] about Pac-12 TV Network: Assessing the options, predicting the outcome
