An emergency meeting among the presidents and athletic directors of the Missouri Valley Conference is scheduled for Sunday in St. Louis, according to a report from CBS Sports and Fan Rag Sports writer Jon Rothstein. The report said the discussion is likely centered on the potential departure of Wichita State, which reportedly has interest in joining the American Athletic Conference (AAC) as a basketball-only member.
The report also states that potential expansion could be discussed. Wichita State has been the MVC’s basketball crown jewel in recent years, having reached the NCAA Tournament the last six seasons under coach Gregg Marshall.
