I do not follow the inner workings of the Pac-12 conference, but I do know several schools including the @Goducks at #UOregon are headed to the Big 10 after this coming season.
Now I read this:
"Stanford and California’s departure (to the ACC) from the Pac-12 leaves the 108-year-old conference with just two remaining members – Oregon State and Washington State.”
So is it now going to be called the Pac-2?

As a casual #OregonDucks fan (I’m a #UOregon alum), I guess I need to learn more about the #BigTen.
(Shouldn’t be too hard, given I live in #Minnesota now.)

(To be honest, I am a bit uneasy about these huge coast-to-coast conferences. Seems like all that extra travel can’t be great for students or the planet.)

Sabrina will always be a #UOregon Duck:
"New York Liberty guard Sabrina Ionescu electrified the crowd Friday by hitting 20 straight shots and scoring a record 37 of a possible 40 points to win the 3-point shooting contest at the WNBA All-Star Game in a performance that will be incredibly difficult to match.
She made 25 of 27 shots to break the event record for the WNBA and NBA.”

Great write-up in the Daily Emerald negotiations demonstrates how the University of Oregon is egregiously failing to meet the needs of its graduate workers by offering 0%-4% raises (effectively pay cuts on our already-low salaries, considering inflation). UO also claims housing and transportation shouldn't factor in our contract; then why does the new president get a free mansion and $14.4k car stipend? #uoregon #gtff #UOworksbecausewedo #goducks #labor #highered
