“In my conversations with Karl, I have not heard Lamar or Sam Houston State mentioned as primary targets. I think their intention is to go after current FBS programs. Like I’ve said before, that could all change tomorrow. (What FBS school would desert a more stable conference to joing the new-wac group.......Benson has gotta be dreamin') Lamar, SHS not primary WAC targets http://blog.mysanantonio.com/utsa/2011/02/lamar-shs-not-primary-wac-targets/

Sun Belt members North Texas and Louisiana-Lafayette have also been repeatedly mentioned as potential targets, even though the former has spurned WAC advances on numerous occasions, most recently last November. Four rival athletic directors said chatter about any potential defections has been non-existent. MYSANANTONIO.COM http://blog.mysanantonio.com/utsa/2011/02/wac-targets-remain-a-mystery/

Interesting that Rivals shows a Baylor offer. http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/recruiting/player-Chad-Polk-103593

Doesn't show an offer from UNT.

Multiple sources have told me the pool of potential candidates includes Louisiana-Lafayette, Lamar, Sam Houston State, Portland State, UC-Davis and Cal Poly. Those sources also said that North Texas and Montana, both of which have already rebuffed the Western, could be approached again. http://blog.mysanantonio.com/utsa/2011/01/wac-teleconference-slated-for-today/

The league is known to covet a Texas member to replace Texas Christian, which leaves after the 2011 season. Honolulu Advertiser article http://www.staradvertiser.com/sports/20110126_Mountain_West_stands_firm_with_10_members.html

Why the SMU reference ?

Agree. Thanks Brett.

The TV contract will probably be the deciding factor in who is or who isn't invited if the MWC does expand.

He did wear a green tie.

FWIW 2011 Bleacher Report power rankings (yeah Bleacher Report ) #68 Troy #82 FIU #86 Muts #91 Arkansas State #100 North Texas #104 ULM #107 FAU #108 ULL #110 WKU 2011 Power Rankings http://bleacherreport.com/articles/578856-college-football-2011-power-ranking-every-program-heading-into-2011#page/1

This paragraph was added some time after original link posted. Yep, someone hacked the MWC official site.
