The University of Massachusetts is set to join the MAC in all sports for the 2025-26 school years, sources told ESPN on Monday.
UMass is an independent in football and plays in the Atlantic-10 in basketball and a vast majority of the school's other sports.
The MAC presidents voted to invite UMass on Monday, as the school had already formally applied to the league. The timing of an announcement is not known, but UMass is set to accept and finalize the details of the arrangement in the near future. Once a school formally applies in conference realignment, there's usually an understanding they will be accepted and enter that league.
