Larry Scott Remains Delusional
Larry Scott is having his Pac-12 championship game press conference today and said this about the next TV rights deal: “We’re sitting on a lot of untapped growth in our value. . . .

Jaxson Dart To USC
Quarterback Jaxson Dart just announced he will sign with USC. So the question is whether Dart or Miller Moss eventually transfers when they don’t win the job in 2022, assuming Kedon Slovis goes pro.
