Expect a few more contracts to be signed over the next couple months as well...of course all of these deals could be dropped at a moments notice, especially if UTSA falls behind plan and wont be an FBS counter for these schools.
Rest assured there is still plenty of room left at the inn....if the 5 year FBS plan wasnt ballsy enough, now they want to do it in only 4!

At 419 fine-printed pages, the NCAA Division I Manual is crammed with enough bylaws to make a collection of tax codes seem like light reading.
It was deep within this bureaucratic tome that UTSA officials discovered an interesting detail.
Already eager to earn Football Bowl Subdivision status as soon as possible, the Roadrunners learned they could ramp their timeline up another year.
Now, instead of reaching college football's top flight as a bowl-eligible independent by 2015, their fifth season, they'll begin their two-year reclassification stint in 2012, with the hopes of joining by 2014 — a full year ahead of January's original plan.
“The more we investigated,” athletic director Lynn Hickey said, “we realized we could do this even faster. (The opportunity) is there, so why not take it?”
Even with the risk it brings — coach Larry Coker will have one less year to groom his neophyte players — speed is of the essence.
UTSA's biggest obstacle remains scheduling, a task handled primarily by assistant athletic director Ross Cobb.
“That's the big piece,” he said.
Required to play at least five FBS opponents at home in 2013, the Roadrunners have lined up only one (Houston, Sept. 21).
Contracting more will be that much easier as long as UTSA counts toward its opponents' bowl eligibility.
“We've been telling everyone that by '13, if everything goes according to plan, we'll be a full FBS ‘counter,'” said Cobb, who is currently in discussion with five candidates.
Cobb said he hopes to have the 2013 schedule finished by next spring, at which point UTSA's status as a counter would be solidified.
UTSA also must average at least 15,000 fans per home game in 2012 or 2013, but Cobb said, “I don't think that's going to be a problem at all.”
Joining the FBS a year earlier should also give recruits added incentive to eschew more established programs.
On a larger scale, UTSA gets more time to stay ahead of the curve on several broader issues, including any forthcoming conference realignments.
“Our plan is, we need to be ready,” Hickey said. “The quicker we can be a viable program for an FBS conference, the better. If one domino falls, it will potentially move others, and that could create an opening with a group of schools we're interested in being with.”
There's also NCAA legislation being studied that would require a conference invitation for membership in the FBS, closing off UTSA's route to join as an independent.
If the rule passes — it won't be voted on until April — Hickey said she hopes the program will be advanced enough to earn an exemption.
“I think there's always concern,” she said. “But it's not at the level you stop what you're doing. We're fine, the people we're scheduling are aware. At this point in time, I would not call it an issue. By the time this gets passed, we might already have a conference home. So we're not stopping.”
Instead, the Roadrunners are speeding up.
So get in line folks, get your wins now before UTSA becames a national powerhouse
