AAC Moving From Rhode Island To North Texas

(Providence, RI) — Another college athletic conference is moving to North Texas.

The American Athletic Conference confirmed today it was going to relocate from Rhode Island to Irving and already leased office space in Las Colinas. They’ll be in the office building as the College Football Playoff. AAC Commissioner Mike Arensco tells The Dallas Morning News the move makes sense because more AAC schools are in and around Texas.

The Big 12 and Conference USA are also headquartered in Irving.
