WAC needs to be stable first before any Southland schools joining. If the WAC could stablized with some Lone Star schools? You might be able to pull some Southland schools. I have been reading in places that Delta State might move up to D1, and they are close to the Louisiana schools in the Southland.
This is what I have been saying all along about more D2 coming up to help out in places.
You missed the point. The point is not to invite any more Division II schools, which means more mouths to feed. The point is for the existing members of the Southland to maximize their revenues by splitting a single NCAA unit 8 ways instead of 13 ways.
Besides, under current rules, Division II schools won’t do anything to maintain an existing conference’s automatic bid for four long years, which does nothing for stability.
