The revelation, in a different lawsuit, could be significant in the fight over control of the conference and makeup of the governing board.
In a court filing last month in the fight for control of the Pac-12, commissioner George Kliavkoff indicated he had no position on the composition of the conference’s governing board. Whether board seats should be limited to the two remaining schools, Washington State and Oregon State, or available to the 10 outgoing members, as well, was an issue for the universities to settle, Kliavkoff stated in his court declaration.
It shows Kliavkoff, under penalty of perjury, acknowledging that announced departures to other conferences triggers removal from the Pac-12’s board — exactly the point Washington State and Oregon State are arguing in their lawsuit. The money could be used to fund their athletic departments or rebuild the conference after the 10 universities depart next summer.
The next day, Pac-12 general counsel Scott Petersmeyer sent Colorado’s legal officer a letter that included the following: Kliavkoff then attempted to call a meeting of all the presidents and chancellors, including those representing USC and UCLA — this, despite his sworn statement two months earlier that the L.A. school had been removed from the board.
