Winds of Change?

The list of prospects for the Conference USA / Mountain West merger has the Bobcats right in the thick of the hunt.

Will Texas State be one of the schools selected by the new CUSA/MW merger?
Schools that have applied to the Alliance:

(WAC)
Idaho
LA Tech
New Mexico State
San Jose State
Texas State
UTSA
Utah State

(Sun Belt)
Florida Atlantic
Florida International
North Texas

(A-10)
Charlotte

A couple of things to add:
On the BobcatReport Podcast that was previously recorded, I stated stating my belief that Texas State was going to be an eventual member of the Mountain West while University of Texas-San Antonio (UTSA) would join Conference USA.

Now that someone besides myself is talking about something I said I wasn't going to, I'm open for questions.

It was my belief that the Alliance would split Texas State and UTSA up if you saw my original thread on this subject. Texas State would join the West and the Runners would join the East. The timing of this leak is extremely interesting.
