If UIW remains in the SLC, what about the WAC and SLC football schedules? Surely, a little late to change them isn’t it?

The Southland conference probably already has a 2022 football schedule made up including UIW just in case. They would be dumb not to knowing this is a contingency.

I think the incoming Commish is 10x better than the old one. Burnett absolutely would not have had a contingency schedule ready if it were up to him.

The problem wouldn’t be on the SLC side, it would be on the WAC’s side. I guess they could double up 1 team each.

The WAC-ASUN scheduling agreement would be unnecessary for the WAC if UIW was to become a full member, assuming that Tarleton and Utah Tech counted toward the auto-bid.

Except that they (nor Sam Houston) counted towards the AQ. That is why the football committee announced that there would be 10 AQ (and the WAC and ASUN were not on the list) and they also said the 11th AQ would be left pending.

A couple of days later, the WAC and ASUN announced their 2022 agreement which is totally different from the 2021 agreement which actually had schedule.

The NCAA permits a conference to split into divisions that play a round-robin and to declare an overall champion - which does not require a CCG. The ASUN said that they would work out the details (read this as give us the AQ).

The WAC division will have 8 teams with 5 competing for the AQ, and the ASUN division will have 6 teams with all but Jacksonville State competing for the AQ. North Alabama is completing their transition to DI and will be a full member this summer.
