Not sure what the "San Francisco Blues" even are. The Chicago Blues. The Memphis Blues. The Delta Blues. Those are all real things based on peoples' struggles. The San Francisco Blues?

RSF Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Klivakoff resorts to begging to keep UCLA. https://theathletic.com/3621500/2022/09/22/pac-12-ucla-big-ten/ Pac-12 commissioner George Kliavkoff sent a letter to the University of California Board of Regents on Thursday in an attempt to overturn the UCLA chancellor’s decision to leave the Big Ten in 2024, a source confirmed to The Athletic. Kliavkoff’s three-page letter, first reported by The New York Times, outlined reasons why the program would be hurt both financially and emotionally if it made the move. He wrote that UCLA athletes could see their academic and health status decline due to increased time traveling on planes to road games. Family and friends of those athletes would also have a more arduous and expensive time seeing the Bruins compete further away from California. Kliavkoff stated travel costs — currently $8.1 in the Pac-12 — would jump to $23.7 million if flights were chartered in the Big Ten. The letter additionally stated salaries for coaches and administrators would be forced to go up in the Big Ten despite the new seven-year, $7.5 billion media rights deal. UCLA and local rival USC are both expected to join the Big Ten in 2024. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RebelAlliance Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Kliavkov is a desperate moron. What happens if the Cali BOR overturns the decision? I think it might play out like this. B1G immediately takes Stanford shutting Cal/UCLA out of their traditional local rivalries. Then they take UW/OU triggering the Four Corners to the B12 and the end of the PAC. The following Monday, the Cali Board Of Regents gets hit with a massive breach of contract lawsuit by the B1G and their media partners with potential damages in the 9-figures. And oh yeah, Kliavkoff and whatever legal framework that remains of the PAC also get hit with a massive civil suit for tampering in a settled and signed contract. I know that San Francisco and LA can't match the number of high end law firms headquartered in NYC or Chicago, but please tell me that there are some good corporate lawyers in Cali warning these fools about the legal shitstorm that will be heading their way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AztecSU Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Lol. They won’t sue UCLA if they back out. It would be a good way to get the public to start turning on this whole thing. They can certainly pick up other west coast PAC schools. But no matter how you slice it, west coast schools in the B10 are signing up for horrific amounts of travel for their AD. Even if you have 4 west coast schools in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RSF Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Until the Big 10 creates a scheduling model for each sport, there's really no way of knowing WHAT the travel costs are. And there will probably be different scheduling models depending on the sport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once upon a time Hawaii, Fresno and Sparty traveled as far east as Ruston, Louisiana for all sports annually. They managed.
