I think the more like scenario is that the conference brand itself and reclassify as a FBS conference for football once a consensus is met and invite the the football playing members who are interested and the football playing members who can not meet the requirements will have to place football else where.

Isn't the WAC already an FBS conference? So really the problem on the FBS WAC vision getting rid of the "undesirables". Good luck trying to talk the BSC into taking on SUU and Utah Tech.


From my understanding yes. The WAC is chartered as a FBS conference but will be competing as an FCS conference. However as the BCS no longer exists I don’t think much convincing will be necessary. But as I said, the conference will probably just need to reclassify and then reinvite/invite the members/prospectives that will be participating.

Additionally my question to other WAC members. And I’m being sincere. Wouldn’t the prospect of the WAC returning to FBS be something worth celebrating? Especially since NMSU would have a place to their football program?

That doesn't make sense. Reclassifying doesn't just boot everyone from the current WAC and create a new conference from scratch with those deemed FBS worthy. Everyone already in the WAC is along for the ride, which is why the Utah Tech and SUU adds don't jive with the FBS idea.

And if a new conference is being created from scratch, then you have to start the clock to gain auto-bids for the Oly sports. And yes, I get the idea of high jacking the WAC is to avoid this continuity issue. Just not seeing how the WAC purges the "undesirables" in this scenario.

None of it makes sense. Joining the WAC, no sense. FBS, less sense. Its all a total joke.


Send an email to NMSUs president. Because you’re right and it doesn’t make sense to many SHSU fans either. I think your institution is the mastermind behind this. Can’t get into a FBS conference? Make your own.
