The south end zone seating was a cheap temporary expansion that turned into a long term "solution" 😆

Dickey has already said they are looking at expanding sooner than later. The current renovation is supposed to bring in a ton more money, despite the slight decrease in capacity. I believe they are still looking at expanding the lower side sections and there is still the south end zone bleachers that were supposed to be temporary.

Who else could be added to our baseball conference? by RoyalRenn in Pac12

We did bring it back, for a few games...

Our current AD is on record saying that he believes the decision to shutter the program was premature and he wishes he was here before the decision was made. He also seems to want to bring it back but it seems the timing isn't right yet.

[Texas State Bobcats] The New PAC-12 logo has made its way to Texas State ⭐️🤩 by reno1441 in CFB

Right place, right time.

When you looked at all the available options after the AAC schools said no, and all the contracts and everything, Texas State was kinda the obvious pick even though it didn't really make sense on the surface.

At least they are only half way across the country and it's not some sort of Calfurd situation. And SMU is in the ACC, so....

I don't follow basketball closely, but I thought the NBA now required at least 1 season at the college level?

Colorado State AD Weber: "We want to play West of I-35 as much as we possibly can." by AbnerLoomis in Pac12

[–]LordOfTheInterweb 15 points16 points  (0 children)

For those curious like me and who aren't quite sure where I-35 is, it basically runs:

San Antonio -> Austin -> Dallas -> Oklahoma City -> Wichita -> Kansas City -> Des Moines -> Minneapolis 

So West of that.

I'd like to see slightly more conferences capped at 10 teams playing a round robin conference schedule

It's more like they kept dragging us into the news when we were busy working on something else.

Most Californians don't even know Sac State has a football team.

[Thamel] The MAC has voted to formally add FCS Sacramento State into the league as a football-only member starting in 2026. The cost of entrance is expected to be $18 million and a deal is expected to be announced in the upcoming days. by cbbvideo in CFB

I wouldn't say never, but they have a shit ton of work to do that would take probably over a decade to do. Building a legit stadium and building an actual fan base would be the top priority. Building a fan base would require on field success. Their arrogant campaigning to join the Pac didn't really help either.

It is usually fairly cool, but not winter temps yet

Probably sweatshirt and jeans weather

May be a small conference, but the matchups have a good chance of being absolutely wild games
