Report: Wichita State may join AAC as soon as next season

USA TODAY Sports

The American Athletic Conference is engaged in talks to add Wichita State and could do so quickly enough that the Shockers would play in the league as soon as next season, according to a report by SI.com's Pete Thamel, who cited multiple sources.

More from Thamel's report:

There’s strong mutual interest between both sides, and sources said that a final decision could be made within the next month or in as few as the next two weeks. Any decision would need to be approved by the American Athletic Conference’s presidents, but the mutual interest is strong enough where neither side sees any looming issues.
