You knew this was coming. With USC, UCLA, Washington and Oregon moving to the Big Ten, and with the Pac-12 essentially if not technically dead, the on-air talent at Pac-12 Network was going to have to find new homes. One prominent Pac-12 Network football analyst has landed at the Big Ten Network. Yogi Roth, the lead game analyst for Pac-12 Network’s football coverage, is heading for BTN, per Awful Announcing:
“I’m on my way to Indianapolis to work for the Big Ten Network, as B1G Media Days get underway Tuesday morning. I’ll be interviewing coaches, meeting players, and learning about a league that has transformed into one of the two premiere leagues in college football,” Roth said.
“It’s been quite the journey to join this team at BTN and one that I’m extremely proud of. When the Pac-12 shifted in dramatic fashion last August it was clear that myself, and over 200 colleagues, would be looking for our next job. We would all work the phones, support one another and begin the journey that none of us could have predicted,” he added.
Big Ten media days are from July 23-25 in Indianapolis.
