Two friends, competitors, former college teammates – and top college coaches – are going to be navigating through a slightly different landscape this coming fall.

Missouri coach Bryan Blitz and Texas A&M coach Coach G Guerrieri are swapping conferences, heading from the Big 12 to the Southeastern Conference as part of the recent college conference merry-go-round.

“It’s a little bit melancholy because we’ve had a great run in the Big 12,” Guerrieri told TopDrawerSoccer.com. “But at the same time, really, really excited about what we get to do. After 16 years in one conference it’s fun to have a change.”

Added Blitz: “For me, it’s like getting a new job, but I don’t have to move my family from a personal standpoint. From a soccer standpoint it’s exciting – both conferences are comparable.”
