RE: WAC FBS is coming back
You've got a lot working against you. Low population density except on the immediate coast where the Pac-12 has already setup shop. A large geographic area to cover as well, so high travel costs in a low population density area. I mean, the P12N is really struggling to try to turn competitive profit. And you're wanting to double down on these problems?

Also, the NCAA wants to stop movement upward from FCS to FBS (Liberty had to threaten legal action to proceed with their studies and plans). And everybody who would be the next most logical call up (NDSU, SDSU, Montana, Montana St, etc) wants absolutely nothing to do with it because they know they'll practically be standing alone if moving up doesn't come with an immediate invite to the MWC.

There needs to be a Sun Belt of the West Coast. But I don't think the WAC is it. The easiest path is to move the Big Sky up ... which would include gutting it of half its membership and back filling with the likes of Idaho, NDSU, SDSU, NMSU, etc.

Needless to say that requires a commish and a lot of ADs with passion, drive, financial backing, and vision. Good luck with that.
