"That the Cougars would join a six-team WAC (Boise jumped to the MWC in June, beginning in 2011) seems implausible, but reports have surfaced that the WAC and/or BYU have approached Houston, UTEP and SMU of Conference USA recently about their interest."

So the WAC could go from 6 up to 9, with ESPN's help.



Of course, then the MWC could take Utah State and Hawaii, and the WAC would go from 9 back down to 7.



And then finally, ESPN and BYU could try to get Tulsa, Rice, and North Texas to join?



BYU

Houston

UTEP

SMU

Tulsa

Rice

North Texas

San Jose State

Idaho

New Mexico State

Louisiana Tech

Seriously, just join the WCC. The WAC is craptastic, no matter how you slice it.





If BYU is dealing with both conferences still, it may take sticking in the MWC for one more season before the best option can truly be sorted out...



Actually, I'm beginning to become a fan of BYU simply announcing that they are going independent in football. And when the media asks, "Which conference is your men's basketball, etc. going to play in?" BYU can just answer, "We'll see."

...And then, after these teams from CUSA defect, have the WAC invite Gonzaga and St. Mary's as non-football members...
