Had USC/UCLA been publicly-held companies, they would have had a fiduciary duty to act in the best interest of their stockholders (fans). Yes, they should have left an organization (P12) that was grossly mismanaged to join an organization (Big Ten) that was well managed.
I have often said that Stanford (and Cal) fans have no right to complain about the breakup of the P12. Both schools would have leaped at the opportunity to join the Big Ten had they been the first choice rather than USC/UCLA.
I have no hard feelings at all towards USC and UCLA. As the saying goes, “It’s not personal, it’s strictly business”.

Yes, and good for USC and their comparatively short-term gain. When they're a .500 team over the life of the contract and they miss the CFP repeatedly, will they drive as strong a bargain in the next contract?
