“Two UC regents and the overall counsel of the UC system instructed there may be an avenue to dam the Bruins’ transfer that had broadly been thought-about a fait accompli because it was introduced in late June,” Bolch wrote.
Extra broadly, Bolch reported, there was dialogue about the right way to preserve college presidents from with the ability to make selections resembling leaving conferences with out extra involvement from the UC system.
A number of occasions, Bolch quoted UC regent president John Perez as saying, “All choices are on the desk” to probably attempt to preserve UCLA from going to the Massive Ten.
Additionally, Bolch quoted Richard Leib, chair of the board of regents, as saying, “We all the time have the flexibility to retain authority, which is what we heard right now,” though Leib mentioned it was “untimely” to say if the board would train that authority to dam UCLA.
UCLA and USC abruptly introduced June 30 that they'd be leaving the Pac-12 for the Massive Ten, and the plan is that they are going to start competitors within the new convention in 2024.
USC was not a part of Wednesday’s dialogue, as a result of as a non-public college, it isn't a part of the UC system.
