The Pac-12 Conference has faced one of the most challenging periods in its history, but what happens next? In this interview, I sit down with Pac-12 Commissioner Teresa Gould to discuss the conference’s survival, media rights, expansion, and the future of the Pac-12.
She shares what it was like stepping into leadership during such a critical time, the tough decisions she’s had to make, and her vision for where the Pac-12 will be in the coming years. We also dive into the lessons learned from the conference’s collapse, what it means for college athletics, and how the Pac-12 is positioning itself to compete in the modern era.
If you’re interested in the business of college football, conference realignment, and what’s next for the Pac-12, this is a must-watch.
