Why keep non-football schools in the Sunbelt and Southland?
Probably digging up an old idea here but it really seems like both conferences have some dead weight laying around that they could pass off on the WAC:

WAC East:
UNO
UALR
UTA
A&M CC
UTRGV

WAC West:
NMSU
GCU
Dixie St
UVU
Cal Bapt
Seattle

Seems like a merciful way for both the Sunbelt and Southland to reduce the number of mouths to feed. Those leagues are committed to FBS and FCS football—the other schools don’t fit the model and are NEVER going to add it.

The WAC gets stability and some basketball programs that aren’t terrible—or at least better than DII upgrades. Division play keeps travel costs reasonable.
