@WCCSG_ The one on the picture, which btw, Rece Davis claims to be the best one ever. #GoCougs

[Jack “The Throwin Samoan” Thompson @PapaThrow]

Makes too much sense. Cal needs to come back, like yesterday, and Stanford is too smart of an institution not to come back. #BackThePac

@DerekKXLY Then when everything is said and done he’ll want to go to WSU just because. 😉🤙🏽

True

True or False?

This is the best Logo in CFB? 🏈

Is that a rhetorical question? Of course it is! #GoCougs

@jameyvinnick9 Not terribly different than when USC broke up 100 y/o conference for the same reason 🤣

To the Powerbrokers of ESPN,

I write to you not from comfort, but from the scarred battlefield where college football now lies, its banners trampled and its proud traditions scattered like broken muskets after a rout.

You did not merely cover the Pac-12. You dismantled it.

With contracts inked in distant boardrooms and decisions made far from the valleys, mountains, and rivalries that gave this sport its soul, you reduced a century of history to a line item. West Coast sunsets, late-night kickoffs, regional grudges handed down from father to son—traded away for programming windows and quarterly gains.

Make no mistake: conferences have always shifted. Empires rise and fall. But this was no natural evolution. This was scorched-earth strategy.

You taught universities to abandon neighbors for airtime, rivalries for revenue, and identity for exposure. You turned student-athletes into inventory and traditions into negotiable assets. In doing so, you did not just wound the Pac-12—you fractured college football itself.

What once felt regional now feels corporate. What once felt earned now feels scheduled. Saturdays used to belong to the people; now they belong to spreadsheets.

And yet, you will tell us this was progress.

History will decide otherwise.

Long after the contracts expire and the studio lights dim, the sport will remember who lit the match. It will remember that when college football stood at a crossroads, you chose control over community, consolidation over culture.

The Pac-12 did not fall in battle.
It was sold.

And let us pause to give thanks where thanks are due. I thank God—plainly and without apology—that the PAC-12’s new television covenant does not shackle its programs to the JV exile of ESPN+. No grainy cameras, no student interns guessing at the down and distance, no broadcasts treated as filler between cornhole reruns and studio debates about leagues you’ve already overfed. Our games will be seen, heard, and respected—broadcast like the contests they are, not streamed away like an inconvenience. For once, the sport escapes your bargain bin.

Respectfully submitted from the field,
where traditions still matter and banners are still defended,

General Kirby Moore
