could it be as simple as "conference participation" being the WAC sports we sponsor...drop those sports and our participation with that said conference is done?
really? utep would jump at the chance to join the mwc? so when the mwc expanded a few years back they chose san jose state, Utah state, and boise state ahead of utep?..no chance...

according to their numbers it would cost them millions to drop down...
not questioning the size just wondering the comparison is to whats popping up around town...the boards will be awesome...wish they were bigger but its a start.
I think that was before Idaho made und being a member a stipulation in their agreement...and yes on the other hand the slummit will soon be paying d2 schools to join their conference.
for comparison sake...how big is the video board at the betty in relation to all these new digital advertising boards popping up around town here in gf/egf?
they thought they were picking bucknell but when they tuned in they told there friends that that team has a pretty good hockey team...so yeah there is probably still some misunderstanding
to 98% of college football fans if your school isn't fbs you are still d2..hence the espn tweet about wentz not playing against "d1 talent each and every week"
with this kind of mindset you might want to send an email to these schools to close up shop and drop fb totally
