Amid the conference realignment shift that has rocked college athletics in recent months, Missouri State has finally been mentioned as a school that could be interested in moving.
Matt Brown, the publisher of a college athletics newsletter called "Extra Points," reported Monday evening that Missouri State could be in the mix to move to Conference USA.
Brown has been a reliable source in recent conference realignment news. He was the first to report that Belmont is on its way to the Missouri Valley Conference.
Missouri State has yet to say anything since the report. Bears' Athletics Director Kyle Moats was already scheduled to meet with the media on Thursday evening as a part of the men's and women's basketball media day.
