The MWC is going to make a play for Houston and another school-if SMU wants to play in the Magnolia they will take Houston and UTEP instead

When momentum starts rolling downhill in recruiting-WATCH OUT.

Why would the MWC want to merge with tulane, rice, marshall, utep, smu, and whatever garbage is left.

do we think B12 raids BE and takes LV, Cincy, WVU or more? Does UConn get ACC invite? Rutgers? If so, USF seems to be up [deleted] creek. Does BE survive, and if so, are we invited?

MWC looks more and more stable, with or without a merger. So many moving peices here.

Why can't everyone on here just relax and take a trip to Costco with their wives today?

I need to go later. Glad they have a second store here in Austin now. I have not been to a Sam's in over 10 years

The new Sam's here in Dallas is a Costco equivalent.

I was all excited to go then when I got there it was about the same as the old Sams.

I see you guys either going Big East and sucking up the travel expense associated with that move, or staying in C-USA and keeping regional rivalries. With the loss of TCU, Utah and BYU, the MWC doesn't look that great anymore. I suppose if you left then we would likely get tapped to replace you in C-USA. That would be an improvement over the Sun Belt, but doesn't achieve my dream of a late November conference matchup with the Mustangs on a crisp fall day at the Apogee! Hell, maybe you stay and we replace Memphis when they are asked to help save the sinking Big East ship. It would be great!!!
