For those that are worried, I have a very, very good source that says Sac State will accept a new conference bid in the next three weeks, and it will be the PAC-12. More strategic releases of drawings, partnerships, etc between now and then will make clear that we are the best fit before an official announcement.
Shhhhhh

So much for that “fan forum vapor wishing” thing, huh?
Nothing official from the KINGS that I’ve seen yet, but it appears there have been indeed been some type of discussions about it just as I predicted earlier.
It just didn’t make much sense for this push by the SAC12 unless they already knew some behind the scenes things.
Someone, please help me understand. Im sure there is plenty of you to weigh in.
As I understand it, the NCAA’s new requirements for a university athletic FCS football program to transition to an FBS program beginning in 2024-2025 require a two-year transition process. If Sac State successfully fulfilled the requirements, including paying or having the $5M waived, it would be 2026-2027.
For the Pac-12 to be recognized as a conference with access to NCAA championships and the College Football Playoff, the conference needs at least eight members in all sports by 2026.
Why would the Pac-12 even make Sac State a priority right now? Why not wait to see if everything Sac State says will happen even materializes? There are other schools more readily available to join the Pac-12 sooner.
If things look so good for Sac State regarding the Pac 12, why no offer from the Mountain West?

MWC and PAC-12 are not stopping at 8 teams football teams. Probably 10. If there is a 2 year probation period, the sooner Sac State starts, the better.
Also, if the TV market matters in obtaining a media deal, they need Sac State in ASAP.
As far as an offer from the MWC, there have been statements from several people who claim inside info that Sac State is singularly focused on PAC-12, so MWC is trying to find alternatives to Sac. Tarleton State....
