Geography plus adding 6 members in 1 year is too much change.


The ACC has added 7 while losing 1 over a 15 year period. But they were not all at once. There needs to be assimilation to have everyone on the same page. We are now down to talking about adding 1 new member. If we pick someone who has been in the Big East with half of our league before (i.e WVU, UConn, etc.) or another Florida school (UCF, USF), it shouldn't be as big of a change.

Several members of the WAC didn't like the PODS themselves, and the rivalries weren't taken care of well enough. This on top of the 4 time zones made it harder to integrate. Plus they weren't being paid well enough to have the travel budgets needed.
