This summer, UCLA will officially join the Big Ten—a conference move that will net the school tens of millions in extra revenue. But it will come with a significant price.
The University of California’s Board of Regents, which oversees multiple schools in the UC system, is considering a proposal for UCLA to begin annual payments of $10 million to subsidize Cal’s athletic department, according to a newly published proposal. The Board of Regents has been discussing a subsidy for more than a year, ever since UCLA announced its decision.
UCLA’s move, announced in 2022, contributed to the devaluing of the Pac-12, of which Cal was a member—and, ultimately, to the conference’s demise.
