Rewind | Live chat with Pac-12 commissioner Larry Scott
Larry Scott became the sixth commissioner of the Pac-10 Conference on July 1, 2009.
He came to collegiate athletics after serving six years as chairman and chief executive officer of the Sony Ericsson WTA Tour (Women's Tennis Association).
In his first two years with the Pac-10, Scott led the conference through expansion for the first time since 1978 by successfully adding Colorado and Utah and creating a football championship game for the first time in conference history.
He also secured agreement for equal revenue sharing for the first time ever, delivered a landmark media rights agreement with ESPN and Fox that dramatically increases revenue and national exposure for schools, and created the Pac-12 Network and Pac-12 Digital Network that promises to significantly enhance exposure for all sports throughout the conference.
Scott talked about the new-look Pac-12 Conference, the changing landscape of college athletics and much more in a live chat Sept. 8 on seattletimes.com.
