After a meeting with Gonzaga President Thayne McCulloh on Monday, Gonzaga athletic director Mike Roth told the Spokesman-Review that the Zags are staying put, for now.
“Our decision is to remain in the WCC, where we’ve had a great relationship for 39 years going on 40,” Roth told the newspaper. “For a number of reasons, maintaining our status in the WCC is the right thing for Gonzaga University.”
In February, the San Diego Union-Tribune reported that Gonzaga was having discussions with the Mountain West Conference about a possible jump to that league. BYU was a member of the MWC until 2011, when it went independent in football and placed most of its other sports in the WCC.
