Texantagonise Posted March 10, 2011 Report Posted March 10, 2011 It makes sense to me. If you want the Dallas - Fort Worth market and UNT will not budge, UTA gives you that.
coachacola Posted March 10, 2011 Report Posted March 10, 2011 The Site Admin over on BobcatReport.com (Jack) said he talked to someone in the UTA athletic department and was told it's all wishful thinking and it's not going to happen. Jack maintains that Lamar is the only other SLC school that has a shot at the WAC. From what I've read the WAC will meet in April and invites will go out then. Probably waiting until March Madness is over.
NorthoftheBorder Posted March 10, 2011 Report Posted March 10, 2011 There's a UTSA guy named BigRunner2012 on the WAC board and he is generally the starter of all the threads that speculate on WAC expansion. He seems to like to stir the pot and get discussions going on "potential" expansion candidates. Not sure he is someone in the know.
UNLV Posted March 10, 2011 Report Posted March 10, 2011 Think about it, what would be the point in being a FBS with all these non-football schools.

I think they are aiming for a 10/12 setup with Seattle and Denver the two basketball schools and they'll try to find two football schools out west so they can have divisions.
