Anyone have any clue?

No idea. Wonder what it could be.....
RE: WAC has “big announcement” Thursday... - MU ATO - 01-12-2021 12:40 PM
I’m guessing TV related. Pure guess though and based on nothing.

No idea but there’s a lot of speculation
A permanent AD?
A change in apparel sponsorship?
A move to the Big West?
Adding football ( the timing coincides with the date the WAC is set to announce its adding footbal).

MU ATO actually its movement, Abiline Christian, Sam Houston State, Stephen F Austin and Lamar are leaving the Southland Conference and joining the WAC.
The Southland is about to become the land of the misfit toys as the WAC was when the football playing members abandoned it.
That leave the Southland with:
McNeese State
Incarnate Word
Nicholls State
Southeast Louisiana
Houston Baptist
Northwestern State
New Orleans
Who does the Southland go after. West Texas AM, Angelo State and Midwesten State seems logical.

Texas A&M - Commerce is the most logical and convenient. Southland has the 6 they need to continue on as FCS. The financially stable D2 teams you mentioned from the Lone Star will gradually start to matriculate to the Southland, and the Southland will (should) smarten up and start to rid itself of the broke LA schools. Later, as in 5-10 years from now, some of those schools may jump to the FBS WAC.

Merge thread with the thread that’s been used all along.

We will need a standalone "press conference" thread on Thursday though!

Lots of news, information will be shared and instead of having six, seven different threads with every bit of information that is shared - would be nice to have one consolidated place.
Need to break from the clutter during a LIVE event!

Bro, you made me LOL. We have one thread for all of this and you keep making new threads and asking to start new ones. You are the one perpetuating "having six, seven different threads with every bit of information that is shared".

Agreed, merge this into the existing thread. Especially now that we have a realistic shot of pushing that thread out to 100-plus pages!

Exactly what I was thinking. I don’t really care about the multiple threads. I just wanna be able to tell my grandkids one day where I was when the WAC realignment thread hit the 100 page mark.

Merge doesn't work.
(It works on none of the boards and I have no control over it.)
Also the announcement is Mr. Peanut is returning to replace Hurd as Conference Commissioner.

It's gonna happen... because then there will be fishing for WT or another D2 after Thursday. My guess, thread will go to 125+

Karl Benson? Surely you jest!
Anyhow maybe just lock this thread and direct folks back to the other.

+1. We have lost valuable posts in this thread that could have pushed the other past page 82...

I think I threw up in my mouth a bit. On the bright side, if folks really do want to push NMSU out, this might be the straw that would break the camel's back, so to speak!
GO AGGIES!!!!!
