Would have Tulsa, Rice and SMU still left the WAC for a CUSA without TCU?

And what if The WAC instead had added NMSU and Utah State to create a 12 team WAC?

Then the WAC would have looked like this:

East:
SMU
Rice
Tulsa
La Tech
UTEP
NMSU

West:
SJSU
Hawaii
Fresno
Utah State
Boise State
Nevada

Now that would be a STABLE Conference with reduced travel for all....except Hawaii!!!

and hawaii...purportedly...

Gee whilikers, Batman! You just listed the proposed WAC 12 that would have happened when the WAC Commissioner commissioned the study on how to save the WAC.

Instead, the prezzes voted to add LaTech and Boazy only, notwithstanding assurances that would never happen.





But, Donks be praised!, all is forgiven in Aggieville!

Now, let's just make this dang thing work.

DOWN the cabalist scum!

UP the WAC! :bluethumb:

Well, it wasn't my vote that kept the Aggies out the the WAC. I have been an Aggie supporter for many years. Every since one of my High School buds went down there and spent all his time skiing and flunked out.

Glad to have you guys back in the fold.

That would have been a great conference with much saner travel. Although the bowl lineup would have needed to be addressed (and still needs it).

If the WAC had acted first and set up that lineup, who knows? TU, Rice and SMU may have stayed. Then again, the lure of a southern-based conference may have been too strong, even without TCU.

We'll never know.
