The Sicatoka Posted December 19, 2016 Author Posted December 19, 2016 Omaha made the moves to position themselves for Wichita State's MVC slot: - no football - better media market (gets the MVC back into Omaha after Creighton left) The other option, honestly, would be Denver (again, no football and media market; distance is DU's downfall) 1 Quote

I am surprised that Idaho has only had 4 years ever that they were good at football. I'm hoping that Idaho get beaten badly when they join the Big Sky just to prove that they never belonged in the FBS. Quote

SWSiouxMN Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 Could be something or could be nothing (like a mobile app) but WAC conference has a "important announcement" to make later today. Quote

SIOUXFAN97 Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 5:30 press conference about expansion!!!! this shoudl be fun Quote
jdub27 Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 Press conference at 5:30 on a Friday (mountain time even!), the time when news is released to get the smallest reaction possible? Nothing of significance is coming out of this. 1 Quote

Nothing of significance is coming out of this. 5:30 on a Friday!?! That's when you announce the commissioner has been fired and you're dealing with some accounting "irregularities." Quote

dmksioux Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 Well it is WAC expansion...but not quite what SiouxVolley has been predicting... http://www.midmajormadness.com/2017/1/13/14268062/sources-cal-baptist-to-join-western-athletic-conference Quote

Who wouldn't want to be associated with Cal Baptist? Quote

The timing on this is perfect! 1 Quote

This will make an easier swap for Idaho, the Montanas, EWU Weber and UND in two months. CBU, GCU, UVU, Bake and Seattle would be a good geographic fit for the rest of the remaining Big Sky. At least CBU has a 6000 arena that should be soon done, unlike Sac St. Get with the program, guys!! Quote
Siouxphan27 Posted January 13, 2017 Posted January 13, 2017 So the Baptists are going to join the wac for two months, and then join the big sky? Hmmmm 2 Quote

And how exactly is UND going to afford to go FBS given the recent financial shortfalls in the athletic budget? 1 Quote
