WCC Expansion

[USCoug]

I read an article a few weeks ago that the WAC comish toured the UVU campus? They might be headed that way. UVU may fit with the WCC in that it's a non-football school, but it doesn't fit in an even bigger way considering it's not a private or religiously driven school.

I think the prime candidate would be Seattle University which I believe was in the WCC many years ago, or at least in a conference with the current WCC membership. They have recently made the move back to D1 sports and already serve as pre-season fodder against BYU in a few sports such as baseball and swimming. It's a Jesuit school and probably a perfect fit.


Edit: Found this article from a few years back about SU making the switch back to D1. Looks like they left the WCC in 1980 and dropped D1 sports, resuming D1 again in 2008.
