UCLA will need to provide answers to California Governor Gavin Newsom on why the school chose to leave the Pac-12 Conference for the Big Ten starting in 2024.

Newsom was present at the UC Board of Regents gathering Wednesday in San Francisco, the first Board of Regents meeting since UCLA and USC announced their moves to the Big Ten Conference.

Newsom announced on Wednesday that UCLA will have to explain how the move away from the Pac-12 will benefit the student-athletes, as well as how the move will impact UC Berkeley.
