Pac-10 officials said Thursday that Colorado will be joining their conference, marking what might be the first in a wave of defections from the Big 12 Conference.
An announcement appeared Thursday morning on the Pac 10 website: "The Pacific-10 Conference announced today that the University of Colorado at Boulder has accepted an invitation to join the Conference as it's 11th member, the first new member since July 1, 1978."
The Denver Post reported that the expanded Pac-10 -- possibly the Pac-16 -- conference might be ready by the 2012 football season.
"This is an historic moment for the Conference, as the Pac-10 is poised for tremendous growth," said Pac-10 Commissioner Larry Scott. "The University of Colorado is a great fit for the Conference both academically and athletically and we are incredibly excited to welcome Colorado to the Pac-10."
