You can tell it's almost summer, because here come the realignment rumors.

Boise State, SDSU and UNLV in talks to join the American conference. Per sports radio

Would give the American 14 football teams and 14 basketball schools with Wichita State hoops-only and Navy football-only.

Would be nice for the guaranteed G5 slot, but the Sun Belt teams did pretty well last year as well. Tough to always be the best out of 5 conferences.

Matt @KySportsRadio Sources confirm meetings between Mountain West and AAC. Boise State along with San Diego State and UNLV to AAC. Air Force was also in discussions but AAC didn’t want a 2nd military academy.

Heads Up: This morning from BTM - The Source.

“Boise St is on the AAC’s doorstep. Expect at least one partner in San Diego St to make move together. Up to two more additional schools could be added to the flow. The heavy push to seal it up is between now and start of July.”
