Wichita State emerges as potential-only basketball only memb

They cheat good too - Hell yes bring it.

Git'r done.

No issues here. If we're stuck in the abyss let's make it as profitable as possible.

It would be shocking if WSU was admitted to the AAC for basketball.

[gostangs]

Why? Doesn't seem all that shocking to me. A mans gotta eat.

It would be A SHOCKER if WSU was admitted to the AAC for basketball.

FIFY

Someone already made the joke

This would be great. My mom is a WSU alum, and my grandparents were long time season ticket holders when I was growing up. Would love to play them a couple times a year.

My great grandfather was head football coach there for two seasons.

No-brainer for the AAC. Total guess but I think this is a move to keep UConn from bolting back to the Big East. I know the university's goal is to join a P5 but their fan base only cares about hoops. Playing Tulane and ECU can't compete with playing Nova and Georgetown.

Agree, a total no-brainer, but I hope it has to do with possible Aresco-ESPN negotiations upgrade. Wouldn't that be a nice Xmas present?

If Wichita State gets screwed out of the tournament like some think possible, it would probably up their urgency to bolt.

Treadway you read my mind... them getting hosed would accelerate a potential change.
Interesting to see Dayton and VCU mentioned.

WSU absolutely wants to bolt and is the one courting the AAC. Our conference is the one stalling

Can they bring their NCAA tournament credits along? Lol
