Three Division Wac

[TxStBobcat]

Just saw this posted on another board and wanted to get some reactions from UNT fans...would this three division WAC interest you more than the current WAC or not? Why?

Central - Texas State, Texas-San Antonio, Lamar, Louisiana Tech

Mountain - Utah State, New Mexico State, Idaho, Boise State

Pacific - Hawaii, San Jose State, Fresno State, Nevada

How would you get a conference champion with 3 divisions ? A 4 team playoff with 3 div champs with 1 wild card team ?

You have 12 teams there so not everyone would be able to play everyone unless you went each season with no OOC games.

Travel would be a bitch. LaTech just really needs a new home.

I'll put money down on LaTech not liking their division one bit.

Boise State would not like it's division either. No competition! It would not support this version of the WAC conference either.

Boise will be gone soon and I expect Fresno St and another to also leave. No way will Fresno St stay in a conference that takes any other schools around the Utah St level (Texas St, Lamar, UTSA, UNT)

Didn't CUSA try three divisions when they started up: red, white, and blue? It's too complex for one thing. An Eastern WAC of La Tech, UNT, NMSU, UTSA, TSU, ULL, and Ark St would be better.

Would this interest me? No.

The Central is horrible with Texas State-San Marcos (Southland), UTSA (Southland currently no football), Lamar (No Football and just don't see them getting enough support to go D1) and La Tech who would never accept this. They won't even move back to the Sun Belt to save their finances, so they are not going to move to a division with these three teams.

Moutain: Boise will not be around and wouldn't accept this. Idaho and Utah State are terrible.

Pacific: I would expect Fresno to move at some point if they can get their academic requirements in order. Isn't this why they've not been invited to move in the past?

Nothing exciting in this line up for me as a NT fan except playing NMSU.

Yes.
