Mountain West's Craig Thompson awaits realignment's ripples
This time, Mountain West commissioner Craig Thompson had three weeks rather than three minutes to digest realignment news before he stepped on stage for MW football media days.Thompson has to wait just like everyone else for the realignment ripples to reach the Mountain West’s shores.
There were moments Wednesday when Thompson was philosophic — “Man’s loyalty is as strong as his options” — but he was mostly pragmatic — “If someone has an opportunity to improve themselves, they will move on.” “We’re happy being here,” SDSU head coach Brady Hoke said as he sat in front of assembled conference media members. “The Mountain West is a great conference. There’s really good coaches. There’s really good schools.Pressed on the matter, Hoke said SDSU would love the opportunity to play in the Pac-12.
If there is to be another conference in Fresno State’s future, then the Bulldogs can’t sit back and wait for it to come to them.
