PULLMAN, Wash. - This summer, Washington State University and the other nine schools in the PAC-10 conference expanded to the PAC-12, welcoming the University of Colorado and the University of Utah. WSU Athletic Director Bill Moos has been part of the changing conference for decades: as a football player at WSU in the PAC-8, as an associate athletic director and athletic director in the PAC-10 and now back at WSU for the PAC-12.
 
The conference also gained the most lucrative television deal in the history of college sports, worth up to $20 million a year for WSU, which splits conference games between ESPN and Fox.
 
Larry Clark of Washington State Magazine sat down with Moos for a discussion on what it means for WSU to be part of the PAC-12 conference, the television deal and his vision for WSU’s athletic programs and facilities.
