If we go coast to coast, add UCONN (+ Temple)

I think we need to embrace the national aspect of a what a conference could be.

East:
U-Conn
Temple
S. Florida
Florida Atlantic
Memphis
Tulane
Rice
SMU

West:
WSU
OSU
Stanford
Cal
UNLV
Fresno St.
SDSU
Boise St.

I want to see the new league get creative and form a partnership with the WCC for the Olympic Sports. Men's and Women's basketball, volleyball, baseball, women's soccer, rowing, tennis, golf, etc.

Those sports don't pay the bills, but they're absolutely a big part of visibility and enrollment.

The WCC for a lot of reasons, would be great. Great schools and great campuses.

I want us to be affiliated with a super west coast conference of teams. I know that regionality is going to become important in the years to come. For all sports outside of football, there would be tremendous leverage with recruits.

Too much focus on truck driving?

Fix it for you

WEST

WSU
OSU
Stanford
Cal
SDSU
Fresno St
BSU

If Stanford won't accept BSU then, UNLV

That's the PAC 14.

2 spots that would make for PAC 16, saved for any combination of ACC leftovers, an or Vandy, Iowa St, Rutgers, etc.

If no ACC leftovers, or if no Vandy, Iowa St, Rutgers, then ADD UNLV in West, and TULSA out east.

FAU doesn't get a spot at the table, goes to Metro Atlantic, Atlantic 10, Sun Belt, C-USA, etc.

Have Gonzaga, St Mary, San Francisco, San Diego, Seattle U, join PAC for BBALL only.
