Thursday, a report came out stating that WAC member Utah State had turned down the opportunity to join the MWC in a bold move to stay loyal. So much for that.
Today the repot from the Deseret News is that USU is “actively negotiating” with the MWC about jumping over.
A source close to the USU administration tells the Deseret News Utah State is actively negotiating a berth in MWC with WAC falling apart
Any conference move for USU depends on BYU’s decision on FB indy status. Nothing will happen before Monday at earliest
To be clear, that source says nothing impending, but that is the goal of current negotiations for USU.
That’s from Jared Eborn of the Deseret News. Like most of the other programs in the WAC and MWC, Utah State seems to be waiting on someone else, someone much bigger than them, to make a move first. And so we wait.

2 lessons to be be learned for USU...
1) Never trust BYU…EVER. Based on what I’ve been reading, their honor code is some warped ideology that indicates that they will do whatever they deem neccesary, with no regard for anyone else. you should know that, since you’ve been sharing the same state with them for so long.
2) Nice guys finish last. in college athletics, its kill or be killed. your moral compass stand was admirable but misguided. In 5 years when you are wallowing in the Big Sky, do you think anyone is going to remember that you took some sort of an ethical stand? NO.
you better hope you get into the MWC or its curtains for your programs.
