The PAC/MWC Dominoes Begin to Fall
- Thread starter Kadeezy
- Start date
Delay, protract and hinder until all deadlines are missed, all new conference members are confirmed and force the school to push everything out another year in hopes of losing interest in being an independent.
Meanwhile, FUCD is full steam ahead with their MWC membership.
FBS membership has been out of Dr. Wood's hands once he got the application in just over a month ago. It's up to the various committees to vote on it now. Whether they do it at this week's meeting or sit on it for a future meeting remains to be seen. There's been a lot going on regarding D1 governance so these committees could be "too busy" to deal with our FBS application, I hope that isn't the case.
The phags aren't currently applying for FBS membership at this time and are only changing Oly sport homes. I don't believe the various committees have anything to do with that.
I thought there were 2 committee's that our FBS application has to go through. June 16th sounds like it's going to be too late, but maybe I am misunderstanding the process.
On another note, the MW members departing for the Pac formally issued their resignation over the weekend. This ensures that there will be 2 FBS conferences out west and significantly reduces the risk of Dr. Wood's "Pac or Bust" and subsequent Indy status approach to attain FBS membership.
Additionally, the MW had to cut a sweetheart deal to UNLV and Air Force to retain them as members. Those two will most certainly bail for "greener pastures" when the next round of media deal re-ignite conference realignment in the early 2030's.

I read somewhere a couple a months ago that the Oversight Committee would have there final two meetings something like June 5th and 8th and present their decision/ recommendation at the NCAA meeting on June 23rd/25. Cutting it pretty close before the July 1st deadline.
