"SDSU's Pal Delivers Timely Block to Secure Victory Over San Jose State"

San Diego State narrowly avoids a potential upset against San Jose State with a dramatic last-second block by Jay Pal, securing an 81-78 victory. Despite a distracted performance, the Aztecs maintain their composure in tight games, extending their winning streak to 13. Jaedon LeDee's impressive performance contributes to the win, as he becomes one of the few players in Division I with multiple games of at least 30 points and 10 rebounds this season. The team now looks ahead to a showdown against New Mexico.

SDSU Denies Attempt to Form Breakaway Conference with Mountain West, AAC, and Pac-12

San Diego State University (SDSU) has refuted a report claiming that it attempted to form a breakaway conference with the remnants of the Pac-12, Mountain West, and American Athletic Conference. SDSU's Athletic Director, John David Wicker, dismissed the report as "fake news" and stated that the university has not sought to create a new conference or seek power status for a new conference. While SDSU and other Mountain West universities have explored a reverse merger with the Pac-12, no decisions have been made. The possibility of a merger, adding teams to the Pac-12, remains on the table as the conference assesses various realignment scenarios.

San Diego State's Decision: Staying in Mountain West Conference for Now

San Diego State University (SDSU) and the Mountain West conference are embroiled in a legal dispute over the university's membership status. SDSU claims it never formally left the conference, while the Mountain West insists it did.

The university is considering legal options and awaits an invitation from the Pac-12 or reinstatement from the Mountain West. The dispute has escalated with lawyers now involved, and a meeting is scheduled for July 17 to discuss SDSU's membership status.

San Diego State to Leave Mountain West Conference, Sources Say

San Diego State University has reportedly informed the Mountain West conference of its plans to leave, but the league has accepted the school's withdrawal. SDSU has been linked to the Pac-12 and Big 12 in the past, but currently has no official invitation from a Power 5 conference. The school needs to give one year of notice by the end of this month if it wants to depart the Mountain West in June 2024.

San Diego State Plans to Exit Mountain West Conference.

San Diego State University (SDSU) has sent a letter to the Mountain West indicating its intention to leave in the 2024-25 academic year, presumably for the Pac-12 or Big 12, but exploring flexibility in their departure deadline and exit fees. The conference replied that it interpreted the letter as notification of SDSU’s departure and initiated the separation procedure, which includes withholding the school’s roughly $6 million payout for 2022-23 due in early July and removing SDSU's president from the conference’s board of directors. The Mountain West’s bylaws call for an exit fee of about $17 million if you provide one-year notice by June 30.
