with teh Mountain West crumbling, have to wonder

would a 6 team FCS California football league take place, like the Big West, since San Jose State may end up in no man's land.

San Jose State
Sac State
Cal Poly
UC Davis
San Diego
Hawaii

as these things go, the Mountain West will likely be headed to a lower type of cobbled together conference, and who knows how desparate they'd become.

none of these Cali universities have the requisite or will ahve the requisite football stadium to remain viable for D1 let alone P4 competitive.

I do suspect Hawaii will be making overtures to this new Pac-6 + construct - to me if I was in their shoes it would make sense. now whether this new Pac-6 group would welcome Hawaii is another matter, there are issues Hawaii presents aside from the novelty travel desitination aspect

also think UNLV will end up in this new Pac-6+, but we shall see. the Mountain West is toast aside from they have a pool of serious short term money from the defections.
