“Our shared interest in a strong Pac-12 brand is a strategic priority given the brand’s impact on the valuation of our collective media and sponsorship rights, recruitment efforts on campuses, impact on overall University brands, and NCAA selection processes in football and basketball, among other reasons

USC’s athletics director Mike Bohn has already indicated that “everything is on the table” for Trojans football when asked about going independent. His attempt to backtrack that answer was nowhere near comforting – it was not a clear message.

What the Pac-12, and Utah, can’t have is for USC to bolt for potentially greener pastures and make the Pac-12 a shell of itself and more on par with the AAC and Mountain West than the Big Ten and SEC.
