Former Utah, Weber State coach says BYU to the MWC would make sense

If a new round of college sports realignment happens, this one would be entirely different, according to one former coach.

Basketball would be at the forefront.

A San Diego Union-Tribune story Wednesday said Gonzaga is considering leaving the West Coast Conference for the Mountain West. Though the story said the MWC isn’t talking with BYU, it noted the Cougars would consider moving if Gonzaga does.

“I think there have been so many moves in athletics, and probably BYU’s last move was very football driven,” said Joe Cravens, a former coach at Idaho, Utah and Weber State.
