Well the reality is guys like Scott are hired to maximize football revenue and by extension performance. IOW, it is his job to make football competitive with national peers. He's not paid a fortune to get women's field hockey on TV.
And let's not gloss over the Pac12 Network fiasco and failing to get on DirecTV, which is an underlying factor contributing to football weakness.

OK, so what you are saying is had Scott negotiated better TV contracts, the Pac-12 would have hired better coaches, recruited better players and developed them better. Well, maybe. I still think it's a bit of a stretch though.
