Not just Stanford. From his Arizona bio, he has an impressive academic-medical, administrative background multiple places:
Suresh Garimella
Learn about Suresh Garimella, the 23rd president of the University of Arizona, renowned researcher, and former UVM president, with a focus on access, affordability, and research.
Perhaps he is from Mississippi (based on earliest degrees)?
Agree though about conflict of interest.
It would be difficult for anyone in his shoes (including on PAC exec group?). Like does AZ alone leaving trigger everything else?
Honestly, it's following the same script as the CU exit.
"Show me the numbers" Followed by a meeting with no conclusion, followed by an executive BOR meeting. This afternoon, if they schedule an impromptu public session for tomorrow, it's time to get excited.
Wow. Worst case scenario for them if true. That’s the extreme low end of all estimates and zero tv exposure
$19.7 million Pac-12 media deal on the table for George Kliavkoff? How much is it worth compared to Notre Dame's $60 million proposal?
Details of the new Pac-12 media deal are gradually emerging at long last. According to sources familiar with the situation, an agreement with a streaming platform will pay each school $19.www.sportskeeda.com
$19.7 million per team. Streaming. If get enough subscribers you make Pennies more per subscriber. So $19.7 million per team.
Both them and ASU are meeting with the BOR this afternoon evening. Same thing CO had to do before they left. If i were a betting man, that announcement is coming
So is this Arizona bor meeting going to be Livestreamed or nah?
I don't expect anything to happen...but who knows

The worst part in all of this are Canzano and Wilner feeling like they're winning.
Do you think they make eye contact while they pump?
Discussions probably taking place. BY will honor the invitation to Arizona. But IMO ASU and Utah could be out now and Oregon and Washington may be in play with a deal this bad.
BY is on record ESPN would pay for up to 4 additional spots pro rata. Fox would pay for up to 2. But MAY be willing to pay 2 more spots with prior approval.
I am speculating that Fox will pay for Oregon and Washington. They would be foolish not to.
They scheduled the impromptu public meeting for today, right after the executive meeting.
GK is finally trying to determine how to put this 9+13 thing together.
If ORWA and Washington weren't worth $45-$50M or more, they wouldn't be in the Big10 discussion.
ASU and UU are definitely worth $32M+. If CU &UA weren't close to $32M, we wouldn't be looking to add.
What some people are missing is the Big12, ACC and Pac12 revenues are very close today. With OuT in Big12 and USCLA in Pac12.
What the networks are saying LOUDLY is they no longer value the Pac12 because it is a 1 region conference. The Pac12 schools will have more value as part of Big12.
Honeslty, GK's best play is probably to shed a couple teams, and backfill with G5s willing to come in at half shares. The rest of the money can then be distributed to the current members and could perhaps get them close enough to $30 mil to not care.
That may be his plan. I don't buy that Colorado leaving caught him off guard.

no. eye contact in the same room. while they pump themselves. Pumping each other would be gay
