OK by me if you post 10 times a day. Always a good read!

Thanks for all your effort, John. Looking forward to your updates. I have to say, that one photo of the stage looks like it was shot by the Webb telescope. Are you sure you didn't borrow that?

please keep us caught up all day John. ask the LA schools where all their extra dollars will go? ask Lanning a bunch of stuff like how he sees his season going, and if he is glad to be in Eugene. ask Chip if he will comment on how close he was to coming back to Eugene; he was my first choice. I am happy with Lanning; at least we dumped slick Willy and super Mario, and have a bright young SEC guy. see if Lanning will comment on his qb position. ask the Huskies how many games they will give away like last year. I still wonder why Wilcox allegedly turned down the Ducks. He can stay in Berkeley and lose! Hurry home John, 100 degree days will continue for at least three more they say!

My question is, What happens to Cal? America's premier public university shouldn't be relegated to the Mountain West.

Living 22 time zones from LA, it was impractical for me to catch Pac12 media day in real time. Just watched GK' s speech and presser on YouTube. My reaction: I remain pleased he is at the helm. He a BADASS.

You are truly the cheerleader for our conference! I know whatever you report will sound positive.

youend your message with Lanning, Smith, Kelly, Riley and Wittingham. Glad to see you come clean with your interest inthose of us who live in the state of Washington. I get the focus on UO and OSU but name dropping USC, UCLA and Utah sends a message. Not surprising, but disappointing.

If George said anything noteworthy, I missed it.

John, a little off topic.......I am reading the book, "The Church of Baseball" by Ron Shelton. It's about the making of the movie "Bull Durham" Ron Shelton would be a great guest on your show. Thanks.

Most interesting off season ever. Still can't wait to just read about fall camps and upcoming games.

Question for the Commish...

Shouldn't the conference leadership have expected the LA schools to bolt being

that the TV contract was up and the history of those schools wanting more revenue?

Is it too late to offer that now to bring them back?
