    Chicago State still seems to be breathing

    Grand Canyon is doing very well

    UMKC is still D1 for now

    New Mexico State still hopes for an invite from an FBS conference

    Seattle still hopes to go to the WCC

    UTRGV is the only D1 school that I don't have a cap from........yet. Oops- I need a Cal Baptist one now too.

    Utah Valley is a school that I know very little about

              I think a revamped WAC could be interesting. Here is a possible scenario with the GNAC collapsing and the LSC schools contemplating a move:

              Angelo State University (San Angelo, TX)
              Azusa Pacific University (Azusa, CA)
              California Baptist (Riverside, CA)

                      New Mexico State got booted from their football-only Sun Belt Conference membership. Their all-sports membership in the WAC is still intact and they're probably the cornerstone member of that league right now.

                        'Not so fast' as Lee Corso would say. The Aggies had an exemplary season (7-6) and won their post season Bowl game against Utah State in the Arizona Bowl. Ironically the Aggies last Bowl game was in 1960 against the same Utah State Aggies.

                          Wow, you spent a lot of thought and energy into this. WAC Commissioner Hurd is in his late 60s and I do not believe he has any clout to pull this off. The WAC needs new leadership just as the LSC did when things started falling apart. The WAC needs to stop being a stepping stone for call ups. Cal Baptist is another fine example. Once they clear probation, here I come WCC. Everyone in the WAC is looking for a way out at the present time with the exception of Chicago State. They will just implode this year or next. A WAC FCS conference of D2 call ups would hopefully stabilize the situation as long as the schools have a history of playing each other and are at least regionally connected. You only need 6 for a playoff bid. If created UTRGV would definitely get football started. My guess is that NMSU would continue on indefinitely as a FBS independent until the Mountain West finally lets them in.

                              Good luck with that.
                              At least the Boilermakers would have a winning record in the MAC. Maybe.

                                ...

                                Purdue was 7-6 last year.

                                Perhaps you meant just in conference play? In which case 4-5 is still a really good team...
