All of us at the Pac-12 and our universities share a strong commitment to building and maintaining a best-in-class football offidating program. Over the Yeas we have made significant investments in officiating leadership, personnel, technology and processes, Annually we ‘evaluate, benchmark against other conferences, and develop plans and implement changes to continuously improve. At the same time, we are always seeking new ways to improve our program, and have recently made the decision to hire an outside expert to initiate a review of our football officiating program. The review will include assessments of many of the areas you highlight in your letter, and will definitely take into account feedback from officials. To, that end, I will share your letter with the outside expert to include in their review. If we have any further questions 1 will let you know. ‘Thanks again for your correspondence.
