San Diego State has long been a potential addition for the Pac-12 as it considers its options with regards to conference realignment.

Back in April, San Diego State athletic director John David Wicker spoke at length with Saturday Out West’s Jon Gold about SDSU’s position in the college football landscape. When asked directly about any discussions with the Pac-12, Wicker said this:

“I’ll just leave it at we’ve had discussions with a lot of folks, both conference level athletic directors across a variety of different conferences.”

The Pac-12 is expected to announce details for its next media deal in the coming weeks.
