Texas State's talks with the Mountain West Conference have stalled, sources told ESPN's Pete Thamel on Tuesday.

The school, in fact, has informed the Sun Belt Conference that it won't be going to the Mountain West after Texas State received a verbal offer over the weekend.

At the time of the verbal offer from the MWC, the Pac-12 had also expressed an interest in the Bobcats program, sources said, though an offer had not materialized. As a member of the Sun Belt, the exit fee for the Bobcats to make a league change is expected to be $5 million.
