I don't think schools are that spiteful that they won't take in UCLA.

You also have to factor that pretty much all conferences will break up in non revenue sports. Everyone will be starting from scratch. How many conferences are actually regional today? very few.

Edit

Also in the case of the Western schools you already have Washington, Oregon, USC, UCLA, Stanford, Cal. Plus Oregon State and Washington State. Or even if they wanted to keep it closer to home you have USC, UCLA, Stanford, Cal and then they can steal other Cali schools (Fresno St, San Jose St, San Diego St, etc). If it is more prestigious and shorter travel, why wouldn't schools join? Same with the core of Washington/State and Oregon/State. They can grab schools close by (Eastern Washington, Boise State, Idaho, etc).

Technically the PAC was too big. Same with the MWC. You can start from scratch in the other sports. The only reason schools were together prior was for FB and BBall. You needed to be with schools that played at an FBS level.
