Destiny Dutch Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 The Pac are now kicking the tires on NMSU. Gloria Nevarez has flanked the Pac with our expansions. Who else can they realistically add now.

MWC TX Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 NMSU is pretty much the only option now for the nPAC to survive as a FBS conference. It would be funny if they declined the PAC to stay in the CUSA where it’s more stable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MWC added UH (all sports), UTEP, GCU, UCD and NIU. The only one of those PAC showed interest in was UH. So Nevarez "flanking" the PAC, with which expansion? GCU doesnt have football and NIU is in Illinois making all sports not feasible. FCS UCD? The juggernaut of UTEP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pac needs someone already in D1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Douglaspoke Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Texas State to the PAC; Turned down the MWC! NMSU to the PAC so as to give UNM a real poke in the eye and then YES--I see NDSU to the PAC. That is damn good conference vs MWC . UNLV jumps the moment the lawsuit starts get negotiated. Saving grace is hopefully Navarez or the PAC commish is compenstawd soi that her Commish job doesn'y create a bigger conflict of interest than what it already has a merger occurs. Iam not so sure on the MWC future at all!! PAC>>> MWC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
