St. Francis Brooklyn of the NEC announced their athletics program is getting cut completely. I think a lot of smaller conferences are going to see programs struggle like this in the future. I still have concerns in the Summit League with Western Illinois.Last edited by DieselJacks; 03-20-2023, 03:49 PM.

What might change that is if the SU's make the men's NCAA tournament and make a couple of Sweet Sixteens

some updates
"At a swim and dive championship banquet in Houston yesterday, the San Diego State Athletic Director told people SDSU will be joining the Pac-12 and it will be announced soon." tweet source - guy covers Arizona Wildcats athletics for what it's worth - 13k followers but no blue check mark
also from reporter Jon Wilner with The Mercury News (a San Jose paper), “The [Pac-12] university presidents discussed SMU and San Diego State as expansion candidates during a meeting last week and approved commissioner George Kliavkoff taking the next step in the complicated process of adding membership, according to sources with knowledge of the meeting.
Sources emphasized that the approval was informal in nature — the presidents did not vote to add specific schools — but expansion is viewed as highly likely.”
(The Big 12 swooping in and grabbing SMU would make a lot more sense to me...it doesn't add a new market, but the SMU-TCU 'civil wars' in DFW would definitely add some spice there.)

Tangentially related -- how awesome would it be to establish some scheduling arrangement with the service academies given SD's level of military enlistment

I wonder if Boise State is also poised to make a move? Would love to see SDSU and NDSU into the Mountain West along with the Montana schools. Would prefer football only, but that may not be an option.

Edit: I would be very happy if SDSU was replaced by SDSU.

This rumor is once again making the rounds -- Missouri State will leave the MVFC and move to FBS Sun Belt Conference. (reported by Matt Brown, writer on Extra Points Newsletter). This rumor was circulating a few months ago and then died down but apparently it's picked up some new legs. .
The Springfield News-Leader paper in newspaper in Springfield, MO ran the story Wednesday, 10/12/22. .

Kennesaw State is becoming a member of Conference USA FBS football. Large enrollment in Atlanta, but weak facilites if I remember correctly. I thinking making a move to that conference would be a lateral move at best, but probably worse due to huge travel costs.

Must admit, I agree with much of what Coach Eck states in this video re. "purity" of FCS football and perspective on potential G5-FCS consolidation.
