A shakeup in leadership took place in the Pac-12 Conference on Monday morning.
According to ESPN’s Pete Thamel, the USC Trojans are set to hire Jen Cohen as their new athletic director, taking over for former AD Mike Bohn, who resigned from the role in May.
Cohen was the standing AD for the Washington Huskies since 2016 and is a current member of the College Football Playoff selection committee. The most notable success that Cohen has had at Washington is the hiring of football head coach Kalen DeBoer, who led the team to a 11-2 record in 2022.
At USC, Cohen becomes the first female athletic director in school history. She will be tasked with overseeing the Trojans’ leap to the Big Ten next year, alongside Oregon, UCLA, and her former employer, Washington.
