But they had some decent years in basketball and some of their other sports were decent. Their women had better teams than the men, but to me, it was at least a sign they were working on things.

The downside is, even with Chicago State, the WAC reached a higher RPI than this future group will probably ever achieve. We lost Chicago and picked 300+ NET Lamar, so its a push as far as NET rankings go. With all the football fantasies, that's likely where the money will flow, so ultimately, as a basketball league, this "reload" won't likely achieve anything new. Not any at large bids, unless its a one off fluke. Even with NMSU back to a more normal NET ranking 100 spots higher than last season, there's not much new in the cupboard going forward.

Meh.

SFA/ACU are bringing in more Tournament wins in the past 5 years than the rest of the current WAC members have combined over the past 30…I think we may move the needle just a little.
