New Big Sky: EWU, UI, ISU, UM, MSU, PSU, Weber St, UNC, UNA, SUU, U-Tech. Cal Poly UC-Davis football only - 11 schools/13 football 2) All ASUN football schools moving over to the WAC with a rebrand to UAC. 8 schools/7 football UAC: UT-A, Tarleton St., ACU, UCA, WGA, N. Alabama, EKU, Austin Peavy I wonder what happens when Tarleton St leaves? Might be tempting for ORU 1 Quote

I could be wrong, because I didn't check to verify that, but I don't think you did either. Quote

Announcement of SUU Joining WAC: The Thunderbirds will be joining the WAC ahead of the 2022-23 season, leaving the remainder of the current athletic season and the 2021-22 season to be played in the Big Sky Conference. “The opportunity to become a member of the WAC is very exciting for us,” SUU Director of Athletics Debbie Corum said. “We believe that the future of SUU Athletics as a member of the WAC will provide exciting opportunities for our programs. “Southern Utah University is honored to join the WAC and help lead the resurgence of this great conference,” said SUU President Scott L Wyatt. “We join a group of universities that is growing in enrollment and a conference that is poised for the future. Now, was AD or President the person that caused all the problems and burned bridges with the Big Sky. I don't know. 1 Quote
