Here's a quick summary of the conference -- what you need to remember, what you need to watch.
First, the rankings, along with a fantasy football-inspired style cheat sheet (super short blurb to describe each program digitally)
2. Washington's social media iconography, here. It's simple, bold, and consistent. Nicely done.
3. Coach pages taking you to Twitter at Stanford and Arizona State. Stanford is much more visual, but both are effective. If you are looking at a coach's bio, you're extremely likely to be interested in his Twitter feed. Makes complete sense, yet not everyone does it. Nice.
Finally, here's my Pac-10 All-Twitter Team (those you should consider following, not those with the highest number of followers):
Up next?
The Big Ten. That starts Friday...
First, the rankings, along with a fantasy football-inspired style cheat sheet (super short blurb to describe each program digitally)
- Stanford - Best basketball section in the conference, by a large amount... and I wouldn't stop at basketball section
- Oregon - Ducks TV. Ducks TV. Ducks TV.
- Washington - Great branding and iconography.
- California - One of the better YouTube channels I've come across.
- UCLA - Coach Howland is pretty active on Twitter, but the site didn't meet expectations.
- Washington State - Loaded multimedia tab needs to infuse into the hoops area.
- Oregon State - I Am Orange and Inside Basketball visuals are powerful, need deeper content.
- Arizona - Very difficult to find any ways to follow the program.
- Arizona State - Coach Sendek active on Twitter. Elaborate community structure, no community content.
- USC - An amazing football site.
- Stanford's YouTube integration into their basketball site, here. You never leave their site, yet you get all the functionality of YouTube. Killer.

Finally, here's my Pac-10 All-Twitter Team (those you should consider following, not those with the highest number of followers):
Ben Howland, UCLA - very personal on Twitter.
Herb Sendek, Arizona State - active and solid
Cal_Video - Active video team + Twitter = goodness
GoDucksDotCom - All sports, but all around pretty good
Pete Carroll, USC- So strong he even makes the All Pac-10 team in basketball.
Up next?
The Big Ten. That starts Friday...
Tomorrow I'll show off some of the hottest content in the world of College Hoops from the past month. You won't want to miss it!
Tune in tomorrow!

If you could put Washington's iconography -- which makes it super easy to navigate their web site -- with Stanford's content --I'm a photographer so I love the compelling visuals -- I think you'd have a "dream" site. What do you think, Andy?
