Washington Rep. Drew Stokesbary, R-Auburn, plans to introduce a bill requiring University of Washington and Washington State University to stay in their athletic conference. FOX13
This announcement comes on the heels of a massive shakeup for the Pac-12—
they would depart the conference for Big Ten as early as 2024. UW and Oregon also applied to join, but conference officials said they are "standing pat for now.""Today I sent a letter to the Presidents and Regents of [UW] and [WSU], urging them to stick together for the good of our student-athletes and fans," Stokesbary tweeted Saturday.
The details of his proposal are not clear aside from this, but as it stands, UCLA and USC would likely be the only two West Coast teams in the Big Ten.
