In the Sun Belt Conference, big changes are on the horizon.
Idaho and New Mexico State have each been searching for a conference to call home for their football teams after the Western Athletic Conference dropped football due to realignment. On Tuesday, March 1, the Sun Belt made it known to the public that they would have to continue their search.
In a statement on Sunbeltsports.org, Texas State University President Dr. Denise Trauth said, “The Sun Belt’s presidents and chancellors strongly believe it is in the best interest of the conference to have a core membership of 10 football teams that are geographically located within the ‘footprint’ of the conference and that these 10 members also compete in all conference sports.
