NJ Times- New breaking news from NCAA president Jim Isch. Mr. Isch has annouced that college football conferences will look even more different this year. Earlier in the year it was annouced that ULM Monroe would be leaving, and dropping out of the FBS 1-A to the FCS 1-AA. While the Rice Owls would be taking their place in the Sun-Belt, and the newly founded University of New Jersey would take their place in Conference-USA. Now the New Jersey Timberwolves will be making another move. Mr. Isch anounced earlier today " After many meetings with NCAA board members, and schools, we have decieded that in the best interest of NCAA football we will switch two teams to new conferences. We feel that there will be better football played and a better opportunity for the student athletes. We are going to have Syracuse University move to the Conference-USA where we feel they will be a better fit. We will also be moving the New Jersey Timberwolves into the Big East to fill the open spot."
Syracuse Athletic Director Adam Simmons said "We are very excited to make the change to Conference-USA, we at Syracuse University feel that it will be a great step for out program and hope to see great results soon."
