Could another football team from San Diego make itself at home in Carson? It's one possibility San Diego State - which is growing increasingly frustrated by the process of acquiring the Mission Valley land from the city - says it plans to investigate if it is unable to complete its purchase in a timely manner. John David Wicker, SDSU's director of athletics, said he would explore opportunities throughout Southern California for the 2021 football season before committing to play again in aging SDCCU Stad ium.The largest football venues in San Diego besides the Mission Valley stadium are at Southwestern College, Mesa College and USD. Each seats approximately 6,000 people, roughly 25 percent of what the Aztecs averaged for their six 2019 home games. This explains widening the search to Orange County and Los Angeles, which include several stadiums that would meet the Aztecs' needs. That includes Carson's Dignity Health Sports Park, which hosted the Chargers the past three seasons after the NFL franc hise relocated from San Diego. - San Diego Union Tribune

Rocky Long is retiring as San Diego State's football coach after taking the Aztecs to nine straight bowl games. He will be replaced by Brady Hoke, a former head coach at Ball State, SDSU and Michigan, the school said Wednesday. Hoke will be elevated from defensive line coach. The Aztecs were 10-3 last season, capped by a 48-11 victory over Central Michigan in the New Mexico Bowl. Hoke hired Long as his defensive coordinator at SDSU in 2009. Long became head coach after Hoke took the Michigan job before the 2011 season. Hoke was fired after four seasons at Michigan and returned to the SDSU staff last fall. Long was 81-38 and took the Aztecs to a bowl game in all nine seasons. That extended the school-record streak to 10 after Hoke took them to the Poins ettia Bowl in 2010. SDSU won 10 or more games in four of the last five seasons, and also won three Mountain West Conference championships under Long. Long, who turns 70 on Jan. 27, was 65-69 in 11 seasons as head coach at New Mexico. Hoke was 31-20 at Mi chigan and 13-12 at SDSU. - AP College Football
