Don't know long term, but last season they were ... RPI 0.4983 for Fort Wayne vs 0.4729 for IUPUI (175th vs 215th), and ESPN's power index had Fort Wayne at the top of the Summit with a BPI rank of 121st, vs 199th for IUPUI.

And while baseball may not be the most important issue, it is probably an issue ... non-FB conferences need to sponsor three men's team sports, and by their nature tend have a lot of schools near the minimum required number of men's sports, so a little leeway above the bare minimum requirement is a bit of an insurance policy for maintaining their Div I status in the face of possible non-FB conference turmoil if the Big East ever gets the word from Fox that they'll pay for the Big East to expand by two.
