The PAC/MWC Dominoes Begin to Fall

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?

You sort of answered your own question. Because they are both trying to secure & block each other with strategic moves in FB / BB and yes with TV markets and a few Time Zones to spice things up.

They both in my opinion see value in SAC ST. I think both didn’t feel a need to rush knowing we have waiting period fcs to FBs that they didn’t need rushed decision.

With G1C Arena I feel we are still a solid choice. Both conferences would geographically in every aspect be better with SAC ST

Our old image of worn out gyms and bleacher stadiums is a weight on our shoulders. Our NEW image needs to be addressed!

A PR Team should build a 20 -30 second commercial once we get our stadium drawings in both Wazzu / Ore St markets. Those two universities have the voting decisions!
