"Mountain West Commissioner Craig Thompson said Utah State and San Jose State would be considered as potential new members for his league if Boise State or Air Force leave for the Big East Conference."

Per the moderators at the BobcatReport who has been in front of many of the movements within the WAC. Still take it with a grain of salt... Ryan - "We have some unconfirmed sources that say Utah St. may be leaving the WAC. These are very early developments and unconfirmed at this point. Stay tuned to BR.COM for the latest..." Jack - "I talked to someone I know and respect that said the same thing. I will follow up in the morning." Ryan "We are hearing they may be headed to the MWC."

SDSU President Stephen Weber discusses why the MWC decided against expansion. Also hints that SDSU might be on the radar of other conferences looking to expand.

now only the Big 12, Big East, and Sun Belt will not have CCGs (and the SB may add the remaining WAC teams...NM St, TX St, UTSA, and LA Tech to have one soon too). UPDATE: Looks like the WAC may once again survive, the MWC has tabled any expansion for now, they must think an AQs still possible or think that the Big East may expand and take Houston (or SMU) as a travel partner for TCU which would open the door for the MWC to snag UTEP and SMU.
