With the college basketball season now over, it’s a good time to step back and evaluate the performance of each Pac-12 athletic director. Just how well have the various Pac-12 athletic departments managed their resources? It’s a topic which will elicit various opinions, if only because each athletic department is not operating with the same budget, the same amount of resources, the same level of publicity, and the same degree of leverage within the Pac-12.
When combining football with men’s and women’s basketball, just how well are athletic departments doing in the Pac-12? Oregon State was amazing in football, not so much in hoops. UCLA was great in men’s basketball, good in women’s hoops and football. Oregon and Washington were strong in football, not that strong in basketball. How should one assess performance? Jon Wilner of the Wilner Hotline has his rankings and his explanations of said rankings. It’s worth a read, just like anything else Wilner produces.
