“For over a century, the Pac-12 Conference has been recognized as a leading brand in intercollegiate athletics,” Pac-12 Commissioner Teresa Gould said in a statement. I am thankful to our board for their efforts to welcome Boise State University, Colorado State University, California State University, Fresno, and San Diego State University to the conference. An exciting new era for the Pac-12 Conference begins today.”While Pac-12 will survive in name, it's highly unlikely it’ll have the same stature or immediate moneymaking potential of the Big Ten, Southeastern Conference, Atlantic Coast Conference and Big 12. “Today’s news is a great start to stabilizing the future of the Pac‑12 Conference and Washington State University,” Washington State President Kirk Schulz and Athletic Director Anne McCoy said in a joint statement.

A Republican congressman slammed Meta on Thursday over what the lawmaker called an inadequate response to concerns about illicit drug advertisements on Facebook and Instagram. "Meta's response not only ignores most of the questions posed in our letter, but also refuses to acknowledge that these illicit drug ads were approved and monetized by Meta and allowed to run on their platforms," Walberg said in a statement. In its letter to lawmakers, Meta Vice President of Global Legal Strategy Rachel Lieber said that the company shares lawmakers' concerns "about the public safety and health threat caused by the opioid epidemic." Meta is "profiting from proving paid amplification to drug trafficking sites that would not have the reach without Meta's advertising platforms." Read Meta's letter to lawmakers below:
