If NMSU adds its oly sports then there could be two football only schools and two that don't play football. No need to add more. Idaho and UMASS & UALR and UTA.

I actually believe adding Umass as football only and then NMST as a full member may be our best move.

Let me give you a geographic lesson. Beaumont Texas is closer to the Atlantic Ocean than it is to El Paso Texas. Why is giving a travel worried SBC a greater travel in 0lympics and football the best move?

NMSU was a solid member of the Sun Belt and they left on good terms as the Belt understood at the time of their departure...the WAC at that time was a better fit for them. I am not sure Lamar left on good terms.

Lamar left on good terms. SBC understood Lamar wasn't ready to restart football. Lamar budget at that time was very small, under 5 million.
