Quote from: Ron Boerger on Yesterday at 04:41:45 PMThe people who make the conference decisions are the school presidents, though it helps if the AD and coaching staffs are in agreement.  It's hard to say what Austin might think about a move - @Jekelish is a supporter of their program, if he happens to see this, he can give a much better perspective.

The previous moves of the 'Roo football team were because they didn't have a home conference option, so they had the freedom to find a best fit.  I don't think the SCAC is going anywhere (especially after swallowing half the ASC) but with only six teams to play football and no Pool A bid for several years still (clock starts two years after they have six-2026 if Schreiner follows their current plan, so 2028 for a bid?) AC might at least think about it if they get an invite.

Hasn't the waiting period been eliminated for existing conferences adding a new sport? I know the Landmark got a Pool A immediately.

Agreed -- if the SCAC has six full members with a sport, then it can get an automatic bid right away. If an affiliate member is required to get to six, that's when the two-year waiting period is triggered.

I see, so it would be necessary in this case since Lyon is an affiliate.
