AP source: Pac-12 hires sports entertainment executive George Kliavkoff of MGM Resorts as its new commissioner.
— Ralph D. Russo (@ralphDrussoAP) May 13, 2021Andrew Berg: So, what do you think?
Kliakoff currently works in sports and entertainment at MGM. He has a history with MLB Advanced Media, Comcast, and NBC. The conference said it wanted someone with experience in sports and media. It looks like they got someone who has done both, so that has to be considered a success.
Gabey Lucas: My insta-reaction was “Who?”, but this actually might be a pretty good hire.
