I'm a ways out of my comfort zone here but GCU has money and a big airport to fly into and NMSU has 8 zillion NCAA tourney appearances. So if you're only picking based on basketball that seems better.

Sounds like a good idea. The Summit should look into GCU & NMSU as Arizona and New Mexico State are adjacent to the footprint. NMSU is a FBS school which helps to further the Summit to FBS dream someday.

GCU and NMSU have vastly different goals. GCU wants to extend it's brand, so a conference with many people in its footprint is ideal. Not the Summit. NMSU needs an FBS ready conference and preferable one that includes Texas schools now. Not the Summit.

True.
