Previous discussions by the regents have been filled with questions about their authority to potentially intervene and block UCLA's announced conference shift.
UCLA made the decision under authority delegated by the UC system president to individual campus chancellors.
The nine-page document goes on to detail a series of considerations weighing into the decision, including the experience of athletes, financial impacts on the university and the potential risk of litigation if the board tries to intervene in the move. The report notes that UCLA already has a signed agreement with the Big Ten Conference.
UCLA and USC stand to see a major boost in revenue from media-rights deals in the Big Ten, which will become a coast-to-coast conference including some of the nation's most prominent athletic programs. The conference in August announced a media-rights deal worth an average of about $1 billion in annual revenue, meaning annual distribution to its member schools of up to $70 million a year.
