Monday afternoon

Boise State President Bob Kustra released a statement Monday afternoon on potential conference realignment:

***8220;Boise State is excited about playing its first football game in the Mountain West Conference this weekend, and is looking forward to an outstanding inaugural conference season in all sports. The university is pleased to be affiliated with such high-quality institutions, and has great confidence in the future direction of the Mountain West.

***8220;While we are certainly flattered to be mentioned in connection with other conferences, and we hold those leagues in high regard, our current focus is on continuing to build the outstanding athletic programs that have helped make Boise State a popular and compelling national brand.

***8220;The landscape of college athletics is exceptionally fluid, and we are continuing to monitor the situation. We are confident that Boise State will be well positioned for future success, and we will evaluate our status with the best interests of the entire university in mind. Boise State***8217;s athletic achievements, academic and research successes, popularity, and vision for future growth make the university an extremely valuable conference partner.***8221;

***8226; More links: The Newark Star-Ledger is reporting that Boise State, Air Force, SMU and Houston are in play for Big East expansion.

But Pete Thamel of the New York Times tweeted this afternoon: "While Big East football ADs are still pushing for Boise, was told "no steam for Boise" today on BE call. Still a LONG shot."
