New MWC Possibility:
- Thread starter nattybry
- Start date
notice how you just point out ppl other than fans that should invest and donate along with boosters and NIL partners
the "have someone else do it, and i'll enjoy their benefits" mentality has not helped UTEP at all.
Hawaii pays travel costs to Big West members, wonder if they will here
The sentiment from current MW fans is they would like to have Hawaii join the league in all sports. That would secure full membership for the MW.
Didn’t really think of this as a possibility, because I didn’t know Hawaii helped with travel. If they say yes this a No Brainer and way better than adding Tarleton St. at least for now. Let Tarleton St. go to CUSA for a couple of years first and see how they do.
The PAC wants to create a "best of the rest" conference. Sadly our beloved UTEP has never been thought of "best of the rest" in anything.
Hopefully this switch ignites a fire in our a$$ (both admin and fanbase) and initiates improvements all around. That way, when the next round of realignment happens and its our turn again, were not left behind.

If they get Hawaii to join full-time, then they can take their time to lay out a plan for the future without desperate moves (like adding UTEP)sorry it was. It would be great if they could add two football-only schools and two basketball-only schools. NIU and NDSU for football and St Marys and Grand Canyon U for Basketball even NMSU for basketball only would be great.
Hopefully it’s an easier sell that we’re playing UNLV/AFA/WY compared to Kennesaw St/SHSU etc. At the same time I would also suggest a donation if you can - we have a lot of ground to cover to catch up in terms of donations and funding.
Above that, support as many businesses that are supporting our athletes. It stinks to say, but money makes athletics go around and a few dollars every few months from every fan will add up over time.
Season tickets for everything except basketball are relatively cheap and another easy way to support the program. Ultimately we still need a lot of work in terms of nutrition and training equipment.
These two things, seem hard for fans to do, even when we suck
We wonder why we're so far behind....I remember this board and the other one as an undergrad "We don't need a cafeteria or nutrition bar, we have a deal with Luby's near campus"
No wonder we're always "behind"

Terry and Golding were and are not performing to UTEP standards but the MW knows UTEP basketball does not take a backseat to football.
Just playing devil's advocate but over the years I have heard on national syndicated shows that NDSU is ok where they are at, and really don't have the money to go full FBS. NIU is the UAB of MAC: All in on football and basketball takes a back seat.

Finally got around to seeing this.
Basically “I got what you people wanted, please don’t embarrass me.”
