Wow...how the WAC has fallen. Seattle is a better bet than UVU, still, don't they need football?
Seattle because of the large market. They do need football, but their aren't any schools with football that want in.

"It will be important this year for the five remaining WAC schools to show some success," Benson said. "It will be important for one of those five teams to contend for a WAC championship, to go to a bowl game, to carry the WAC umbrella into the postseason. I've been asked many times what the future holds and I think I've been consistent in saying there isn't any reason one of those schools or perhaps a Texas State or UT-San Antonio can't be the next Boise State.

"Ten years ago when Boise State joined the WAC, I don't think anybody expected Boise State to have the dominance it has had. Looking at the five remaining members of the WAC, I don't see a whole lot of difference between those five programs in 2011 than where Boise State was in 2001. It's very realistic that one of those five schools can indeed be the flag bearer and a national power coming out of the WAC."

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Dude doesn't get it. College football in 2011 is a completely different animal than it was in 2001. There won't ever be another Boise St, at least not until the current system changes, and changes drastically. How does this guy still have a job?

True!!! HAHAHAH....

As for Seattle, that media market is owned by the Huskies. The same thing applies for PSU (Oregon and Oregon St) and Sac St (anyone other than Sac St).

It's a much larger market than Provo/Orem or Bakersfield.
