Think the demise of the PAC-12 was led by USC and their President at the time but a lot of the blame should probably be on Larry Scott and his poorly executed PAC-12 Network strategy. UCLA was given a choice and they accepted, as would Stanford if given the choice.

I'm not so sure the PAC--12 would have imploded if only USC left.  A lot of us would have said "Good riddance!".
There still would have been a Los Angeles market.

But, as you say, UCLA accepted.  That was a choice they made.  In my book, they are accountable for that choice.
