From the Texas State board..In response to your question only the negotiating team and University administrators know for sure but names that have been suggested by local media are Sam Houston St, Tarleton St and UTEP. NIU and Toledo cannot be the only targets because they will be FB only and we need at least 2 more full member to qualify as a conference. Gloria is much more creative so NIU and Toledo came as a complete surprise to everybody. They being targeted means there is a broad net being cast and It would not surprise me if LLU were being considered. My best guess would be that your administration would be consulted about a travel partner.

Goodness, what a wizzing contest out west. MWC and PAC need to check their egos, swap a little spit and merge.
I bet any school in the eastern and central time zones just can' wait to play games in the mountain and pacific time zones. I'm sure their fans would love it!
Wow, just seeing that Texas State lost to SHSU. Ouch
Question, if not Louisiana Tech possibly WKU or Middle Tennessee? Here's the problem, all of them took a dump on the SBC when they left for CUSA. There is a reason we are not playing WKU or MTSU in major sports, they have refused to schedule UL so we don't play them in any sports.
If Texas State is gone to the MWC, the three candidates with ties to the conference and existing rivalries are Louisiana Tech, WKU and Middle Tennessee. Of those three, WKU has the best football and mbb programs right now.
Not based on current success, but I would take MTSU back before WKU

I don’t like any of the 3. They can all rot in cusa. I’d take Sam Houston state. They have a tradition of winning and will be top of cusa soon enough if not this year. They have good baseball and basketball. Also a close travel game.
