So far no regents meeting for Texas State System and it wasn't on last week's agenda.
It could go sideways. There may be options that we don't know about. I think there are some certainties.
1). The wheels are in motion for change at the conference level. Whether it's The WAC , A Sun , a remodeled SLC. I just don't see us letting the SWAC pass us by. They (SWAC) just expanded VERY strategically I don't think the SWAC expansion will amount to HUGE gains but it will move them forward.
2). The Southland is weak and frail. I don't think ANYONE on this board would say that the association with the SLC has helped us much in the past 8-10 years. In the 90's and early 2000's it was a solid FCS conference. Respected in the FCS ranks. No more. We are 5th at best. Behind the MVC, Big Sky, CAA and Southern. Regarding MBB . A 12 seed is an absolute rarity. We need a more robust conference association. I hope the BOR makes the move. I am certain ACU is going. We should move regardless a positive decision by Lamar or Sam.
