So you guys will have 13 teams again next year and going forward. Will you try to get a 14th, and if so, who? If not who is the one team you expect to lose to C-USA?

Yet, although not actually or visibly shown, but one division consists of only Texas schools, and the other division consists of the schools in the Western US. Should the WAC expand for a 14th school after the departures of Sam Houston State and New Mexico State, it has to be in the Western states, probably a D-II callup for full membership (with football and basketball as main priorities, to help keep football its automatic bid for the FCS playoffs).

In a perfect world, SU would find another conference and tighten up geography a bit. If not, yes, hope you can find a school in New Mexico or further west to “balance” out the divisions. However, it’s slim pickings out west and I don’t know of any serious candidates to move from D2 and it’s highly unlikely any Big Sky, Big West, or WCC team would join the WAC at this point.

Right. Just saying that it would have to be west of Texas. I know ENMU, WNMU, NNMU, and all the others are “never” going D1.

You didn't specifically rule out New Mexico Highlands. I'm going to read lots of deep meaning into that.

It was closed the same as the recent thread about San Diego. This one will probably get shutdown soon.
