No excuse at this point for the Pac-12 Net to continue to set up shop in SF. It made no sense in the first place and it’s irresponsible to keep flushing exorbitant rent $$ down the toilet without any benefit to being in a city/region that couldn’t care less about college sports.
You can run a network from anywhere. Go to Phoenix. Go to Portland. Go anywhere with reasonable cost of living in the footprint. This isn’t complicated.
