UNLV, New Mexico, SD St, Nevada
Portland, San Fran, Pepperdine
Also, why would Gonzaga want to leave for a mediocre conference when in the WCC now they have 16 units accumulated just payable next year? 14 next year, 12 following, 10, following, 8 following, 6 following, 3 following. So they have 18 million dollars that they'll be getting a good bit of that from their tourney performances.
Great point!
Let’s not forget.....
IF them Zags did move to the MWC
IF Wichita St, VCU, & Dayton came to the AAC
The WWC, the MVC, & the A-10
would still “earn” @ least one NCAA bid
For the last 5 years,
There is a continued trend of the NCAA
in offering even “less” open bids
to non P6 schools (4 this year)
W/ Less open bids
Most G5 teams
will have to win conference tourney to get a NCAA bid
Isn’t the NCAA path, right now, easier for
WSU, Zags, & VCU to stay where they currently reside?
Plus, IF they move, they lose their NCAA credits.
Is it really worth it for these schools to move?
