from Ghizal Hasan Podcast · host Ghizal Hasan
In light of UC San Diego's recent defection, we'll discuss what's next for the Big West, going forward. We congratulate Dan on beginning his sixth season at the helm of the Big West Conference, while trying to read the tea leaves, with regard to conference re-alignment. While the Big West will lose UC San Diego to the WCC in 2027-28, three new institutions will join the league in 2026-27 (Utah Valley, California Baptist and Sacramento State) and we discuss Dan's role on various NCAA committees, as well as the protocol for when a conference pursues a new member.
