Tara VanDerveer on the text she sent all the Pac-12 coaches last week before the tournament: "We had so many teams in the tournament, I just said, 'What the heck, I'm just going to be one big one.' I just said, 'As we end our Pac-12 family, just want to wish everyone the best of luck in the tournament. Going our separate ways, we've had a great and special thing.' ...I feel like I can call any single coach, talk to them. We have a really close group. It is incredibly sad to see the end to such a great conference that has the most teams in the Sweet 16... We have worked together to make the Pac-12 successful... If anything it was, 'Best wishes, but remember how special it has been.'"
@BrennaGreene_ She has always been first class! I love that the PAC is still alive in every corner of the bracket and hoping for an all-PAC Final Four. Go Beavs-Trojans-Cardinal-Buffs. Sad that literally all four are going separate ways next year
@BrennaGreene_ I really hate all these conferences going away. I remember the big 8!
@BrennaGreene_ And be sure to send that tournament check to the Pac2 schools
@BrennaGreene_ Flying across country for conference games is just ridiculous!
@BrennaGreene_ @linzsports sad part realignment in college sports. Should just be football that moves, test of sports should stay put or include football, should be regional, like NFL, divisions/regions. No reason for Stanford to have to play Syracuse and USC have play Rutgers, joke, student-athlete my ass
