Lamar, SHS not primary WAC targets
While he didn’t totally shut the door on any speculation regarding Lamar and Sam Houston State, Southland Conference commissioner Tom Burnett said Wednesday the Western Athletic Conference is looking elsewhere in its bid to add more football-playing members:
“(Western Athletic Conference commissioner) Karl (Benson) and I talk on a consistent basis. I think what occurred there with them, with the Mountain West deciding not to expand further, it gave them an opportunity to take a deep breath and assess their situation.
“In my conversations with Karl, I have not heard Lamar or Sam Houston State mentioned as primary targets. I think their intention is to go after current FBS programs. Like I’ve said before, that could all change tomorrow.
