SMU to Mountain West?
Posted: Sat Oct 02, 2021 8:30 pmHeard someone suggest it. Any legs to that rumor?
TV money would be better, at least.

Posted: Sat Oct 02, 2021 8:45 pmFrom a competitive standpoint,
Joining the MWC would make sense.
From a money standpoint and coverage standpoint, it would stink.
MWC has a crappy tv deal, they get no coverage.
Only way a move to the MWC would make sense is if Memphis came with us and Witchita St. and Gonzaga joined as basketball members only.
Short of that, AAC and ESPN money, even though it will be less in the near term, is the best path.
