New University of Oregon president John Karl Scholz has deep ties to the Big Ten.
Scholz was officially announced as the new president of the university Monday after previously being the provost at the University of Wisconsin.
While university president hirings might not matter much, this one might matter a ton when it comes to expansion. Why? He was a huge supporter of the Big Ten expanding and scooping up USC and UCLA this past summer when he was at Wisconsin.
