From the Houston Chron:
Southland Conference school presidents will meet Friday at Dallas, and one of the items on their agenda surely will be conference realignment.
Texas State and Texas-San Antonio are on their way out after accepting invitations to join the Western Athletic Conference in November. Their membership in the WAC will become effective July 1, 2012.
The San Antonio Express-News reported Friday that the WAC is considering adding more members, and commissioner Karl Benson said additions could be announced as soon as April 1. The Express-News reported through multiple sources that the list of candidates numbers at least six schools, including Sam Houston State and Lamar.
League commissioner Tom Burnett said Thursday it would not be proper to discuss possible departures until any action was taken, but he expects the presidents will likely take all developments into consideration.
“We certainly will review the entire situation, (including) what we know, probably begin dialogue on what’s a little more uncertain at this point, which would be the future and what the conference plans to do,” Burnett said.
