How so? Football only doesn't matter and, unless they've changed the rules recently, Texas St. counts as 1 team. Not 2.

Maybe it means something. Maybe it doesn't. But everybody seems to be ready to go burn their UTEP gear in the front yard over a couple of tweets.

Fool me once...fool me twice...fool me twenty times...

I can already hear Senter, "We are happy with CUSA and never inquired about changing conferences. Its always been our vision to compete for CUSA titles and National Titles. We are not going to leave our current situation, which is excellent, to an unknown and unstable upstart."

You know its bad when you read this and can picture AND hear Senter saying it

What a huge letdown. Just when things were looking promising and the MW pulls this crap. I hope the MAC teams turn them now. Fellas, we just can’t seem to catch a break.

MWC going after TX St all sports, MAC teams football only. Not great for us

I didn't even go to UTEP. It was just imprinted on me as a child and an el pasoan. I blame my dad attending UTEP during the 1966 era and then taking us to UTEP games during the glory years in the 80s and 90w. Little did my brothers and I know what we were getting into. I'm gonna seek therapy to get out of this abusive relationship 😂

My dad was a cop and he would do security at the football games so my earliest memories are watching UTEP get killed in the mid 1980s. I was fortunate enough to not have to see my dad beat my mom as a kid, but those UTEP football meetings were my childhood trauma..

I mean "we" are pretty bad what have we done on the field/court since Price/Gillespie? No much. And El Paso is a demographic anchor.

Straight up, right now, TXST a progtam with much larger potential to grow because of their continual investment into athletics. It is already a massive school in an excellent location, the main thing it was missing an investment in itself.

If I had to pick objectively, I would much rather have TXST than UTEP since R1 is apparently easier to attain than competing in revenue sports.

It's like it's own version of a UTEP game. Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory

What deal did Don Haskins make with Satan to get that title in 1966!!??

Either UNM has THAT much pull to keep NMSU and us out the MW, or the MW doesn’t care for either of us

If the MW doesn’t care for UTEP, we should stop begging to be in their conference like a stage 5 clinger. Forget “historic rivalries”.

I think I might quit if we get left behind. It's sad but I don't even see any way out after this. So tragic that the administration has screwed over such a loyal fan base that in all honesty, we have no reason to be. I don't think I know what it feels like to follow a winning team. It's probably some mental illness.

So this is a massive issue for us moving to any other conference.

Can almost imagine the PAC (X) going for Sac St (30k students, full admin support for jumping to D1, 20th largest media market) and paying out a massive amount for Memphis from their war chest.

Utah State to the PAC and UTEP is stuck in CUSA 7.0. Serenity now.
