NCAA denies United Athletic Conference’s waiver request to be single-sport conference: Sources
The newly-announced United Athletic Conference’s waiver request to be recognized as a single-sport FCS football conference was denied this week, people briefed on the matter told The Athletic. The NCAA has had a moratorium on single-sport conferences since early 2020.
That moratorium is set to expire on June 1, unless the Board of Directors votes to continue it. The UAC plans to continue moving forward with the conference name and vision, even if it’s not an official conference.
