Submit Your Pac-10 Media Day Questions

PrintOn Thursday I'll attend another Pac-10 Media Day. Instead of the Sheraton LAX, I get to head to a more exciting venue this year: the Rose Bowl! Oddly enough, we'll be out on the field for the event. Electricity and wifi were practically nonexistant last year, so my expectations are low this year. I'll update the CGB twitter throughout the day. And if we have access to 21st century conveniences, I'll even be able to keep you all updated via CGB.
See Part I and Part II of last year's event for a look at what it's like at this annual event. I'll have the chance to mix and mingle with a variety of Pac-10 coaches and players as well as the other media types who cover the Pac-10 (hi Uncle Ted!). At last year's event I learned some exciting and unusual facts (like how Ted Miller has a link to CGB on his PC, and how Cal Media Relations thinks CGB is "different" from the rest of Cal sports sites). This time I want to ask some questions on behalf of you, the faithful readers.
Pose your questions in the comments and rec the questions you most want answered. I've provided a list of those in attendance, in case you want to direct any questions to other programs. I can't guarantee I'll ask everything you ask (if I embarrass myself one more time in front of Jim Harbaugh by asking about his $50,000 toilet, Twist's "AllRightNow.com" dream will never become reality!), but I'll try.

Where is the Pac-10 media day?
My question for Lane Kiffin: “Do you regret pissing of Al Davis and burning your NFL bridge?”

It’s at the Rose Bowl (on the field for whatever strange reason). Thanks for reminding me to include that info in the post.

You should ask Harbaugh what his deal is. Also, make sure your question makes use of the word “hubris”.

You should ask Chip Kelly what crimes his team had committed at the Media Day already.

Follow-up Question for Hairball
Do you understand the concept of home field advantage?
If so, why are you doing it rong?
"Remember the Maine! TO HELL WITH STANFORD!"
ok here is a question you might pose to Larry Scott
Since one of the possible push is to increase brand awareness of the PAC-10 internationally like in Asia. Would the PAC-10 also try to increase its exposure in its immediate neigbour which is Canada? at least in the BC/Alberta area?
Canadians also have football with the CFL, and they tend to tune in big numbers when the Superbowl is on. So it is not a stretch to promote PAC-10 football and PAC-10 sports up north

Ask Tedford if he’s done anything in the off-season to address the team’s bad habit last year of apparently giving up in tough games, for example: Oregon, USC, Oregon State, and Washington.
Berkelium, you should also ask Tedford if he’s done anything inthe off-season to congratulate the team for their great habit last year of apparently stepping up to the plate in tough games, for example: Arizona, Stanford.

Ha I guess that question was way too negative and would probably needs to be phrased in a more positive light. I blame the Washington and the Utah games for that lingering bad taste in my mouth. And I do recognize the team played great against Stanford and Arizona (that Stanford game totally redeemed the season in my opinion). However, I’d just like to know if he’s been doing anything in the off-season to try to make the team more consistent. It was very un-Tedford for the team to get blown out in so many games last season.

To Jim Harbaugh:
When are you going to Michigan? Do you know they have pretty much the same colors as Cal?

To Chip Kelly:
Can you talk to Tedford about cutting me a personal check for Cal’s dismal performance in Eugene last year? I spent a lot of money on the trip up and I would like to be reimbursed.

These questions are all cute
But do you guys have any questions Berkelium can ask so we don’t get kicked out of every Pac-10 Media Day from here to eternity?

Yeah, I think that’s one thing about following the team so closely in the offseason. You pretty much already have a good sense about what’s going on.

Ask Tedford how he would feel if the California schools were t split next year. And what is his favorite way to split up the division.

Will USC be outright planning to cheat in the future, or will it be incidental?

For Tedford:
Which player who didn’t see the field much last year do you see making the biggest impact this year?

In previous years, the conference has gotten a bad rap for the quality/consistency of the referees. This discrepancy would show up in out of conference games or bowl games when the Pac-10 teams appeared unprepared for a more physical game. Is there anything being to review the performance of our conference referees?
