My heart is never warmed by someone losing their job. But Scott has abjectly failed to deliver and the conference needs a stronger commissioner who will forcefully stand up for it on the national stage, and it needs to relocate to a lower-cost city

And it's not as if Scott and his family will be in line for food stamps should he lose his job.

IMHO it's hard to say if his tenure thus far has been a net positive.

I think that depends greatly on who you ask. If you ask the University Presidents & AD's, he's a net positive. He's brought in some big bucks, although the future looks pretty bleak on that front. If you ask fans, he's likely a net negative. He doesn't stand up for the conference with any kind of strength - either to the networks or the CFP. He made some terrible business decisions on the CCG in Levi's and putting the conference & network in the most expensive place he possibly could. The TV contract, while lucrative, completely hosed fans with late kickoffs and 6-day windows.
