It is a BEAUTIFUL setting. I went to see SFA play SUU in 2003. I was living in Denver at the time.

All of the surrounding area is stunning.

Looks nice. Their stadium seems a little small but the location is beautiful. Elevation may give them a slight home field advantage.


Elevation of Cedar City is 5,622.

Is UIW headed back to the SLC ? If so, why?

On the Twitter machine……. Matt Brown. He (Matt Brown) was on top of the WAC realignment in 2020.

No sources. Just more wild speculation.

Of course. The UIW "back" to the SLC is live , I believe. The rest, who knows.

Possibly one of the best reasons to leave the SLC. Payout. I know it won't pay for All the travel, but it sure makes a difference.

Not a loss imo. WAC will be a balanced 14 teams in 2022-2023 and 12 teams in 2023-2024. The SLC will still be ranked 31 out of 33 conferences in MBB.

Definitely addition by subtraction. Won't miss UIW at all.

Gives us the chance to evaluate better long term candidates. WACSUN football should get us through a few years and in my estimation, we need to see where the cards fall on this whole UT/OU realignment anyway.

Focus on building a strong basketball league while we let that shake out and the WAC will be stronger for it.

And the WAC will still be a one-bid league.

By the way, did the 'Jacks make the March Madness tournament this year?

No. Did McNeese? Has McNeese, recently? Has McNeese ever won an ncaa or NIT game ? One NIT game Would have liked McNeese to come along but they preferred to stay in possibly the 2nd or 3rd worst basketball conference in the nation. Good luck Mc Cowboys…..

A 1 bid league that's gonna earn a lot more money with 12 seeds winning instead of 1 and out 16 seeds.

Actually, they did. Unlike McNeese and virtually every SLC school, SFA strives for excellence in ALL athletic teams. The Ladyjacks played in the Women's March Madness.

BTW, congratulations for the fine seasons of your 11-22 Cowboys and your 13-15 Cowgirls as part of the mighty Southland Conference.

Suggestion, Cowboy: Don't try to throw rocks when you only have Nerf balls to throw.

I'd really like to see us in a "southern" football league. But….. I don't want to have our basketball and other programs playing an SLC slate

The Southland will never not be a play-in game going forward.

It doesn't matter where the Final Four is held, for the Southland Conference, it's "Destination Dayton" every year.

Agreed 100%. Basketball is the driver for this alignment. As it should be.

I like this add. Women's sports are solid. Hopefully, MBB gets it figured out.

If MBB gets back to anywhere near average or above, the WAC is going to be on very solid footing going forward.

A very solid men's basketball conference, especially with Chicago State gone and UIW not joining.
