This GCU being sued by the feds, is an embarrassment for the conference.

I put this here, as it would impact the WAC if SFA left the WAC for the SLC.

Is it a coincidence, or do we seem to be playing more SLC teams in golf/tennis … (almost every sport) than the previous 2 years combined?

Matt Norlander is reporting that GCU and Seattle are headed to the WCC in 2025. Imho the WAC is no longer sustainable unless they can pull in a Denver, ORU and UNC (Northern Colorado). Even with those adds it's a stretch. The writing appears to be on the wall. The WAC is dead unless Brian Thornton has a magic trick ready.

Looks like we can be headed back to the Southland.

Of the possible outcomes, going to the SLC is the worst imho. Looking at the 8 team fallout it could work in favor of staying in the WAC if we could play divisional (ACU/SFA/Tarleton/UTA) for all of the minor sports (soccer, tennis, track and field volleyball). 2X your division 1X across divisions at worst. Not having SU in the mix will bring travel cost down and allow us to further improve rivalries with ACU Tarleton and UTA.

If there's any truth to DU and ORU looking at the WAC, that would work things out in a very solid way. I hope we don't get trigger happy and return to the SLC without serious consideration of the upside if the WAC stays together.

With best regards

Hope you are reading Mr McBroom.

UT Arlington to the MVC? One article (Peoria Journal Star) has UT Arlington as a top candidate. ORU also listed.
