Well, I can tell you I am a bit surprised. My sources were NOT correct in what they told me and I was wrong as well. I guess posters were right, its all about Tarleton's MBB not football.
I was told big daddy TAMU shot the D1 move down.
I need new freaking sources. HAHA 7070707
I guess congrats to TSU? Sad for the football program but happy for the other programs.

Southland is going away.... WT will receive an invite so will Sam Houston, SFA, UTRGV, Northern Colorado, New Mexico State.
There aren't and never will be any rivalries with Dixie State, New Mexico State, or Northern Colorado. But if ACU, SHSU, and SFA make them move, then I can get a little bit more on board with this move.
Plus, if SHSU moves, then I get the Kats in town once every couple of years!

I hope you're right about that.. I don't see SHSU or SFA leaving the SLC unless the Southland is truly a sinking ship. For Tarleton.... I just don't see why you alienate your fanbase by choosing a conference where the closest opponent is 434 miles away (UTRGV). Seems more of a power grab by the AD than a true strategic move for the university. If you're right (and thus far you have been) and some of the Texas SLC schools jump ship, then it makes much more logistical sense.
