Your move Larry!

Larry is sitting beside his phone, hoping against hope that the B1G commissioner will call and ask Larry to play with him...

Seriously, that breathless announcement that Larry had secured Covid-19 testing “that changes everything”, yet things still exactly the same in the PAC-12. What exactly was the point of signing the contract for testing?
 
Newsome has mucked things up. He insists teams can play despite his guidelines prohibiting teams meeting as a group and contact practicing. Bet this gets ironed out really quick and we'll have games by Nov.
 
I wouldnt put it past Newsome to not let Pac 12 Football play in CA.

This may have to goto the Courts, with the Pac 12 saying to the Courts that since Newsom let the NFL play in CA, he has to let the Pac 12 play in CA

If that dont work. The Pac 12 might have to have USC, CAL, Stanford, UCLA practice, play OUTSIDE CA, and Newsom's Jurisdiction.

Also the Pac 12 has a LOT of LEVERAGE against Newsom, CA.

Pac 12 can organize a boycott against NFL football in CA. Pac 12 can sue Newsom, CA. Pac 12 can move all games, bowls, championships, playoffs, etc, outside CA. USC, CAL, Stanford, UCLA, can take their research projects outside CA, and can give other states their research. USC, Stanford, CAL, UCLA, can move their colleges, campuses outside CA.

Basically the Pac 12 can FCK CA, if CA, Newsome is going to FCK the Pac 12.

The only question is, does Larry Scott, and the Presidents, AD's, Colleges, etc, have the BALLS, to do that.
 
That is so easy to answer... because he is an incompetent idiot.
While that is certainly true, I don't envy his position in this debacle. The west coast and our politics out here are vastly different from the SEC, and the optics of sending young children to their impending doom all in the name of the all mighty dollar would be simply unconscionable. Like Newsome, Brown, and Inslee, he felt compelled to make a broad sweeping decision that impacted hundreds if not thousands without regard for their input, wishes, or wants.
