"As a longtime member of the PAC-12 Conference, we are extremely disappointed in yesterday's announcement of the future departure of two peer universities. The proud traditions and culture of the PAC-12 and its persistent commitment to student-athlete success have always made it a national leader. The University of Arizona will continue in its commitment to serving its student-athletes and ensuring we continue to compete at the highest levels of Division I athletics in all women's and men's sports. We will continue to engage and communicate with our peers around the conference to ensure the University of Arizona and its student-athletes, campus community, loyal fans, alumni, and supporters are priorities in all decision making."
-University President Dr. Robert C. Robbins and Director of Athletics Dave Heeke
