Minnesota athletic director Mark Coyle commented on USC and UCLA’s recent move to the B1G Friday afternoon.
The former Syracuse head man is excited about what the move will hold for the future of the B1G.
“We are very excited to have the additions. … I think it’s good for the Big Ten. I think it’s exciting for our conference, our student-athletes,” Coyle said, via the Pioneer Press. “As Commissioner (Kevin) Warren said, it takes our conference from coast to coast now, which is great exposure for the great institutions in the Big Ten.”
The two coastal California powerhouses are set to join the B1G in 2024.
