More dominoes falling in light of Big East moves...????
That means the Mountain West is definitely losing two football programs (SDSU and BSU) … which means the MWC most likely will be looking to add two … which means San Jose State and Utah State could be on their way to the MWC.
(Don’t be surprised if Air Force eventually makes the jump to the Big East with Navy, which would leave the MWC down three in football.)
SJSU athletic director Tom Bowen has been in contact with Mountain West officials about the possibility of joining the conference.
My guess is that it will happen for SJSU – but that, as with most realignment-related matters, it will take time (perhaps much longer than anticipated).
Remember: realignment is fluid, with multiple layers of bureaucracy and politics involved.
