It seems, for now, UCLA and USC will be the only Pac-12 members to hop ship.
According to a report from USC beat writer Ryan Kartje, rumored suitors such as Oregon, Washington and Stanford, among others, will not join the B1G for now.
Multiple sources tell @latimes that no other Pac-12 members are expected to be added to the Big Ten at this time.
Oregon, Washington, Stanford, etc. will not be following USC and UCLA.

Even if no move is expected in the near future, the window of opportunity will remain open for some time for teams across the country to relocate. Stanford, Washington and Cal are all AAU (Association of American Universities) accredited, perhaps a green flag hinting towards a potential move.
If one thing is clear, it’s this: This is likely not the end for conference realignment.
