I like the thought midmajor, but I just don't see it happening. With regard to the WCC, Pacific is still in the same geographic region as the rest of the WCC, and even if it isn't religious, it is still private. Also, It is close to USF and Santa Clara and easy to get to. BYU being in the WCC is a total aberration. There must be some type of money deal between them and the rest of the conference. The Y has got to be the richest and biggest school in the WCC.
One conference not mentioned is the Summit, but it is to far away for the Cats and most importantly, we don't get to play against like schools and traditional rivals. Playing ISU, SUU, Montana, MSU, and NAU gives the program a slight boast in attendance. As has been stated, WCC isn't a possibility because we don't fit the mold, Big West really isn't a possibility due to travel, Summit isn't because of travel and teams we play, and Weber won't ever get an invite into the MW because USU wouldn't allow it, and frankly the Cats aren't ready. Five years ago, the football program was on its way to becoming relatively competitive. It could have competed in the MW. Now, it struggles to get wins against the bottom half of the Sky.
Best thing that Weber can do is to do its best to improve the overall reputation of the conference. Gonzaga was the only relevant program in the WCC 10 years ago and now the conference, top to bottom, is competitive. As for Denver, we ask them to play us every year. They won't do it cause they know they won't win. I'm not worried about the Pioneers.
