Gage said. "With all of the restructuring on
the national level, the reality of the issues are
much different this time."
Officials in A&M's athletic department felt
the move would be beneficial to A&M and
would get A&M out of a conference that had
grown stagnant.
"I believe it would be a good move," Groff
said. "The Southwest Conference is at a stand
still, and if you're not going forward, you're
going backward."
Head football coach R.C. Slocum agreed
with Groff and said the SWC has been in de
cline for a number of years.
"The Southwest Conference has had a num
ber of problems," Slocum said. "It has been
headed in a negative direction for several years.
"I think this is a positive new direction for
A&M to go in."
The financial effects of the move would
benefit A&M as well, Groff said.
"Financially, it will be nothing but a gain,"
Groff said. "The way I understand it, we
stand to gain quite a bit."
Groff said the additional funds A&M could
recieve might be used in a number of ways.
Women's programs could get more funding to
try and comply with Title IX (the gender equi
ty law) requirements and the athletic depart
ment could be self-supporting, he added.
"It would be nice to be self-supporting,"
Groff said. "Right now the University uses
funds to help support the athletic department.
If we were self-supporting, those funds could
be used for academics."
Both Groff and Associate Athletic Djreci
for Women Lynn Hickey agreed that a
to the Big Eight would provide credibil
many of A&M's athletic programs.
