  1. Thank you for the welcome
  2. Longtime reader and first time poster here I say UNT goes for the WAC. The opportunities it offers to move up to better things is whats most interesting. Lets look at the former members of the WAC and where they are now. Arizona-Pac10 Arizona State-Pac10 BYU-MWC New Mexico-MWC Utah-Pac10 Wyoming-MWC Colorado St.-MWC UTEP-C-USA SDSU-MWC Air Force-MWC Fresno st.-MWC UNLV-MWC TCU-MWC Rice-C-USA SMU-C-USA Tulsa-C-USA Nevada-MWC Boise St.-MWC This conference has a proven track record of moving schools to bigger better conferences. Every time the WAC seems on the verge of collapse they add teams who break through and give results. What has the Sunbelt done for us? We won 4 back to back championships and did that improve our recruiting? Our national perception? If the Sunbelt had been a great place to build up our program we would have seen the results with those 4 straight conference wins. Instead we drop back and are still fighting to get back. What else has the Sunbelt created? Troy? MTSU? No team here is looking like they will be a BCS buster, lets face it the Sunbelt has not produced. an east devision with TxSt LaTech NMSU UNT UTSA (one more) would garner much more interest by the students than any of the schools we play now. No one on campus is interested about the schools we play. We have no rivalries in 10 years. No one cares about FAU or Troy. No offense but the median poster here seems like a middle aged male. I think the younger alums would feel that this is a good move. Sure I can see that there is a potential for risk here, but there is also potential for reward. I would rather give it a shot and see if we can land a big reward instead of sitting pretty where we are and hope something happens. If C-USA doesn't come calling in the summer I say give the invite a serious consideration. The WAC can be a great place to transition to a better place, or we can remain in the Sunbelt which has no track record of its teams moving up.
