UAC FCS Waiver Denied

Post by And1 »

Per Chris Vannini on Twitter:

"Source: The United Athletic Conference's waiver to be recognized as a single-sport FCS football conference was denied,

The WAC-ASUN will continue ahead w/ its partnership, UAC name and AQ spot. The NCAA moratorium is set to sunset soon. More coming."

The current moratorium on single sport conferences ends June first unless extended. The UAC is going to operate as it is with a waiver for a FCS bid. Still will do conference awards, etc.

Basically all this means is that we don't have a vote on certain matters. For all practical purposes that will be noticeable to a fan, they will be operating as a conference. This is not a big deal as far as the immediate future is concerned.
