Might be some movement for NJCAA Arizona schools could go 4 year and join NAIA in the future. 4 JC schools in the Phoenix Valley area have recommended that the football programs should be cut. Scottsdale, Mesa, Phoenix and Glendale.

This could mean that Arizona Western, Pima and Eastern Arizona could go NAIA. Could be a nice NAIA conference forming in Arizona and New Mexico.

Pima
Eastern Arizona
Arizona Western
Arizona Christian
Ottawa
Dine
Navajo Tech
New Mexico Military going from JC to 4 year.

Arizona only have 7 football schools at the JC level. 1 at NAIA. 1 not listed yet. 1 adding sports. 1 in New Mexico adding sports. 1 New Mexico Military school could help bridge the gap between Arizona to Texas and Oklahoma schools.

Stop the fantasy. Absolutely nothing in the article mentions schools being transformed into a 4-year and joining NAIA.

This is only talks and speculations what is going to happen to the 3 Arizona JC football schools. My friends who lives in the area of Yuma and mainly in Parker with a AW campus in Parker have been talking for awhile what they heard about Arizona Western be turning into a 4 year college. These friends are my former classmates in elementary school in Parker. So, you are trying to tell me as a complete stranger that Arizona Western not going to 4 year, but my friends from Parker are saying that there are talks? I will take the words from my friends than over you any day.

The problem is that you linked an article that is about 4 JCs losing football but your post is about 2-year schools turning into 4-year schools and joining the NAIA based on friends' hearsay. There is just no connection from the link to the rest of the post. Oh, and I am also connected to Arizona since I have family there and I am an Arizona native.
