<p>Louisiana Tech is leaving Conference USA to become the 14th member of the Sun Belt Conference, ESPN reported.</p>
<p>Sun Belt officials reportedly approved the move on Monday to replace Texas State, which recently jumped to the Pac-12.</p>
<p>Louisiana Tech has been with Conference USA since 2013. The Bulldogs' basketball programs and other sports besides football previously were part of the Sun Belt from 1991-2001 before joining the Western Athletic Conference from 2001-13.</p>
<p>The earliest date Louisiana Tech can join the Sun Belt is 2026. It reportedly will cost the school at least $5 million to negotiate an exit from Conference USA.</p>
<p>The Bulldogs' football program has not finished above .500 since going 10-3 under former coach Skip Holtz in 2019. They were 5-8 last season under Sonny Cumbie.</p>
<p>The Louisiana Tech men's basketball team has topped 20 wins in 11 of the past 13 seasons but has not been to the NCAA Tournament since 1991.</p>
<p>The women's basketball team finished 18-16 last season and has not been to the NCAA Tournament since 2011.</p>
