Click bait at its finest.

I think it’s real smoke. The PAC wants a Texas presence.

Let me ask you this, what exactly does Texas St bring to the table that maybe a San Jose St doesn't? Yes, they are a large university and have quality academics but what is their market? They can't deliver San Antoinio any more so than UTSA and they certainly can't deliver the Austin market. They have no long-term history of successful football or mbb at this time, so what is their value to the PAC 12. Memphis would certainly have the money to absorb the travel cost if the conference would like to stretch East. There are several others, but I can't imagine Texas St. is any serious conversation with the PAC 12 any more than Arkansas St was with the Big 12 during expansion.

UNT and SMU makes way more sense than Texas State. PAC has plenty of leverage money.

SMU is in the ACC. UNT is a joke.

They bring Texas size potential and good diamond spots. Plus, they’re en vogue at the moment.

I agree…Louisiana would be a better option.

Shoot, I'm not even considering UL. Our budget probably doesn't meet their criteria and there is no way that our leadership in the AD and President will want the travel cost associated considering the long-term view that we will end up in a larger G5 conference eventually.

Now, if it was a football only conference, that may change my view, but we would have to find another home for all our other sports.

Let's see. SBC would kick us out. SLC is hot garbage. CUSA might take us. AAC would not take us. A-Sun would take us. I would make a play for MVC membership.

Football in the PAC and other sports in the Missouri Valley sounds real nice.
