you were in the mvc most of the last 10 seasons,..theyve been in the pac 12..

washington lands 5star/elite recruits on the regular..the next top 70 recruit wichita gets will be the 1st top 80 recruit wichita gets (*in the age of recruit rankings)

as a wichita fan you can argue its not a step down but for literally anyone not a wichita its not even remotely close to a step down...

its like houston fans saying transferring to texas is a step down because we've had more historical success..absolutely no one not a houston fan would consider a transfer from houston to texas a step down

So your thoughts and feelings say it's not a step down.

All measurable facts say it's a step down.

Sorry but facts > your feelings.

pac 12 > mvc .. hard fact

by every single "measurable facts" you put out... WSU would beat UCLA..
It is plain stupid to say WSU is a better program than UCLA... you basis for measuring programs is homer and ridiculously flawed...
but sure dont let me stop you, believe what you want

WSU is not in the MVC anymore though. So not a fact.

NCAA tournament success is harder coming from the MVC (worse seed) yet ... WSU has better post season success - Fact

UCLA is a little more up and down and has actually put out some good teams here and there. They have multiple Sweet 16s in the last decade. So no I wouldn't say UCLA is a step down. It's neutral or a Step up from WSU.

So are you saying that EVERY Pac 12 program is a step up from Houston? Cuz Pac12 > AAC right?

but you used a 10 year window, where 7 of those years were in the MVC.. that was the facts i was addressing...you used MVC success to claim dominance over a program in the Pac 12

and to answer your question i would not consider a player transferring for Houston to Washington a step down
Washington REGULARLY beats blue bloods for recruits ..the idea that Washington is a step down from any aac program is ludicrous ... and any fan base claiming such is coming from a homer perspective
