UCLA - Will the Board of Regents

The teams I named are ALL Division I football Schools

It’s akin to, “the camel’s nose in the tent” !
Still don't get it. The schools are in various conferences, only two on the Pac. How does going from two to one or zero, impact the other schools? What camel is getting into the tent?
 
The latest is the Pac 12 commish saying they would love to keep UCLA. And suggested the extra TV money UCLA would get would be eaten up by coach salary increases, since Riley only making $10 million a year at USC, and the horrible transportation costs of flying the team to 4 games in the Midwest. Guess the extra $40 million Bruins will make in the Big 10 will not go that far after all.

Evidently the Governor of California gets it and is concerned about it.

It sets a precedent for defection

From the Mountain West? There is only one other pac team in the UC. How is the state impacted by what conference the UC team is in? They all are multi state conferences?

There are two other teams in the UC system, NOT one.

The same way that the PAC is impacted by UCLA leaving.

The FACT that you don’t want to acknowledge is that the Governor, who controls the Regents, is concerned about UCLA’s departure and wants to prevent it.

What don’t you understand about that ?
 
I told you, before it was announced, that UCLA’s defection to the Big 10 was going to be challenged, and the Governor of California, who controls the Regents who control UCLA, is opposed to the defection.

What else is there to know ?

Ya. That was pretty funny.

That was Kliavkoff trying to throw a Doug Flutie To Gerard Phelan pass against Miami. The only way he completes that pass is for Newsom to somehow steal that $40 million dollars from UCLA and launder it through the California State system to research something like sexual identity, or why fossil fuels caused the Ice Age to end a few thousand years ago.

The funniest thing was when he used “coach salary increases” as a reason. Last I heard, the Big Ten has no salary requirement for coaches.

If anything, Kliavkoff’s interview was an advertisement for other teams to leave. He pretty much subliminally admitted UCLA will have more East Coast and National television exposure, be able to hire better coaches, and have an additional $40 million dollars a year to possibly afford to build a new on-campus stadium that would allow UCLA’s football Program to turn a 180.

No wonder Washington and Oregon want to join the Big Ten so bad. George makes it sound like a pretty good deal!
