The Pac-12 Conference will not unveil the details of its media-rights deal on Friday in Las Vegas during Football Media Day. But the negotiations have been “advanced and productive” and a deal is in “the near future” per a conference source.

How far in the future?

Commissioner George Kliavkoff is expected to give an update on Friday during the conference’s media-day event at Resorts World Las Vegas.

“We’ve had very productive negotiations,” the source told me. “New entrants have come in. We’re feeling good and our schools will be rewarded for their patience.”
