Washington, Oregon, USC, and UCLA? Does he really think these things?

Does he realize that he could have won the last ten Pac-12 championships and still wouldn't be considered in the same tier as those schools? They are blue bloods and have been for quite some time.

I get that he might be frustrated that they were invited and his school wasn't, especially as he was having success against them on the field in the very recent past. But my goodness--is he at all aware of how long those schools have dominated Pacific Coast college sports, the value of their brands, the perception? If there is any surprise here, it is that Stanford wasn't invited for their academics/sports profile.

He sounds so idiotic. But oh well--that is his to bear.
