"Washington State and Oregon State Secure Pac-12 Control After Court Victory"

The Washington State Cougars and Oregon State Beavers have gained control over the Pac-12 conference after the Washington State Supreme Court denied motions from the University of Washington to review a previous ruling. As the only remaining members of the conference, the Cougars and Beavers now hold the only two board positions, making them the ultimate decision-makers. The future distribution of revenue payments and conference assets and liabilities are still to be determined, but a settlement among the 12 schools is possible.

Washington Supreme Court Denies Review, Gives WSU and OSU Control of Pac-12

The Washington state supreme court has declined to review a lower court's decision that granted control of the Pac-12 board of directors to Oregon State and Washington State. The ruling lifts the previous stay and gives immediate control of the board to OSU and WSU, allowing them full discretion to operate the conference as they see fit, including revenue distributions. The departing 10 universities have seemingly exhausted their legal remedies, and it remains unclear what immediate steps OSU and WSU will take. There is a possibility that the departing schools could attempt to dissolve the conference, but lawyers for OSU and WSU argue that such action is not legally possible.

Washington State and Oregon State Secure Pac-12 Control as Supreme Court Denies Review Request

The Washington Supreme Court has denied a review request by the 10 departing Pac-12 members, reaffirming Oregon State and Washington State's control over the conference and its assets. The court ruling prevents the remaining 10 schools from voting to sell off any assets before the conference reduces to two members. While Oregon State and Washington State have controlling interest, they must act in the fiduciary interest of the entire group and cannot withhold money owed to the departing members. The two schools plan to enter into a scheduling agreement with the Mountain West for the 2024 season, with the option to add members or merge with another conference in the future.
