Side Note: WWU dropped football and used moving to D-I eventually as an excuse. Well now is their chance to join the WAC. Will they move up or not? D-II board says no they won't. What say you? I hope they do move up. WAC 7 could use them and Metro St.

I really hope WWU moves to the WAC. WAC is investing in male soccer and that is a key sport at WWU.

Hell, why not? What does the WAC got to lose at this point?

Going to 16 seems like the best choice, imo.

Been some talk of trying to get Cinci interested. Think that'll be a mistake in the long run as they are primed to bolt as soon as possible...

Think BYU will stay indy.

So add SDSU, SMU, Houston and then who?

The WAC nothing, WWU does, GNAC is a solid conf in D-II. All of their games minus the 2 Alaska schools are pretty close. MSU-Billings the only other kinda long travel game.

The thought of how stout MWC basketball is going to be is making my mouth water!!!

I agree, gonna be a tough league!

Houston would come, if invited. Some of our fans may scoff at that notion, but they either aren't intelligent enough to see more than 1 move at a time, or just don't want to face the truth.

Looking forward to developing rivalries with Boise, SDSU, Fresno, UNLV, among others!

MWC Made TCU a juggernaut and could do the same for Hou/SMU.

Unless the conference goes to 16, I have a feeling we'd be on the outside looking in

RE: MW in talks with 3-5 teams per CBS - PoiseState - 12-31-2012 07:41 PM

Is Memphis and Cincinatti to "eastern" for MWC?

RE: MW in talks with 3-5 teams per CBS - MercerFan - 12-31-2012 07:44 PM

Mountains should be a pre-req to join the MWC....

The MWC is going to come out of this as a solid league one way or the other, though.

RE: MW in talks with 3-5 teams per CBS - OrangeCrush22 - 12-31-2012 08:23 PM

I'm not sure there's enough money involved to go beyond 12, at least now without BYU football.

RE: MW in talks with 3-5 teams per CBS - PoiseState - 12-31-2012 08:27 PM

The more teams that join means the more inventory we have to sell after CBS gets there contracted games
