Pac-12 rebuilding conference, targeting Boise State, San Diego State, Fresno State, Colorado State
Breaking news
The Pac-12 conference is reportedly in talks to add four new schools as a part of its rebuilding efforts, according to sources familiar with the discussions.
The conference is targeting Boise State, San Diego State, Fresno State, and Colorado State, the sources said.
The move would come as the Pac-12 looks to replace UCLA and USC, who are leaving for the Big Ten in 2024.
Details of the expansion
The Pac-12 has been exploring expansion options for months, and the addition of these four schools would give the conference a footprint in new markets.
Boise State is located in Idaho, while San Diego State, Fresno State, and Colorado State are all located in California.
The addition of these schools would also give the Pac-12 a stronger presence in the Mountain West region.
Next steps
The Pac-12 is expected to vote on the expansion proposal in the coming weeks.
If the proposal is approved, the four schools would likely join the conference in 2024.
The expansion would give the Pac-12 12 members, which would be the same number of schools as the Big 12 and the Atlantic Coast Conference.
