Arizona president Robert Robbins called the departures of UCLA and USC “clearly huge losses” but said the remaining Pac-12 schools are “rallying and joining arms to make it work” as the conference navigates an uncertain landscape.Central to the process of making “it work” is the completion of a media rights agreement for the contract cycle that begins in the summer of 2024.

Why would you move for a couple million dollars a year more?”He then compared the situation to competing for “a bronze medal...
