Reports: San Diego State, Mountain West Could Be Parting Ways

San Diego State is intending on leaving the Mountain West Conference, according to multiple reports.

Pete Thamel of ESPN tweeted Friday that the Aztecs notified the league this week that they want to resign from the conference.

Sources: San Diego State gave the Mountain West written notice this week that the school “intends to resign from the Mountain West Conference.” SDSU asked the Mountain West for a “one-month extension given unforeseen delays involving other collegiate athletic conferences beyond…

Speculation has swirled whether San Diego State would jump to the Pac-12 with USC and UCLA going to the Big Ten. But Thamel added San Diego State does not have an invitation from the Pac-12 as of yet and is exploring its options.

The time table for SDSU’s departure is unclear, but this doesn’t appear to affect the Aztecs’ 2023 football regular season. The timeline might also depend on factors like the Pac-12’s television deal. 

The school would need to provide a year’s notice in order to depart by June 2024. Per ESPN, the exit fee would go from about $16.5 million to almost $34 million if the Aztecs wait until after June 30.

Looks like San Diego State is moving on from the Mountain West.

This could give some other programs, maybe one or two in the FCS, a chance to join the league https://t.co/OrN9bQbMBU

This could open the door for other programs to join the Mountain West, including other Group of Five schools or FCS programs. 

New Mexico State, which recently moved to Conference USA, or UC Davis, North Dakota State, South Dakota State, Montana State, and/or Montana of the FCS are just a few of the programs which would make sense strictly in terms of geography and/or recent history of talent level, but countless other factors would be at play for any of those schools.
