An LAX base rumor has been around at least as long as 2016 (prob longer but I wasn't following before that). Seems to come from management (or at least a 7 degrees of Kevin Bacon to management) and many of us believe it's intent is for recruiting purposes and to string along guys like you who might go elsewhere but might stay here if you thought LAX was around the corner. COVID cooled the rumor a bit and PHX killed it. But then 'ole pitch had to mention it and then the guy from management jumped right in to perpetuate and reinvigorate the rumor. lol
