Probably Utah will be an independent to start with. Denver and Air Force are the only western schools, and Denver is not leaving the Big East. So the Southern is probably where they will land after that.

LaCrosse is very popular and growing in California High Schools, especially the Catholic leagues. I truly expect a couple schools in California will eventually add the men's game, and a conference will form (MPSF, Big West, WCC?). But that is looking out well past a decade.

Lax is so much cheaper than football. Surprised that no Big West or WCC schools have sponsored men's lax, when they did for women's. UCDAVIS is an exception as they actually have fb.

More importantly for the WCC schools, lacrosse attracts the right demographics for a private school.

I could see the sports popularity in California grow. You can play sports all year and with the fear of concussions from FB it could be a boon in LAX participation as the HS level and lower which would help grow the sport at the collegiate level. Once California picks it up and really embraces it it will spread to the other western states.
