Sources telling me Western Kentucky is accepting a bid, along with New Mexico State, to join Conference USA. Be announced today #wku #ksr

NMSU just got their get out of jail free card punched, Idaho? Not so much.

enemas U????

I think we're gone if nmsu is in cusa

What would New Mexico State do for C-USA? Attempt to keep UTEP from going MWC? Is it for charity?

WKU makes sense, preferred them over FAU.

Wow. My alma mater in a conference with a school in New Mexico.

Do they teach geography in schools any more?

moss2k pls

I know NMSU has decent basketball, but come on.... Why not invite Delaware? I do like adding WKU though.

Basketball and I think that'd be about it

when nmsu moved to the wac, we moved to cusa. if this is true, it isn't to keep UTEP

With all due respect to any Aggies (I had to google it) reading this, I'd rather just keep UTEP.

That means they passed over Texas St for NM State. Head scratcher. But they do play good basketball.

Adding NMSU would provide the opposite effect. UTEP would leave.

Wonder if we will now be stuck with NMSU in C-USA?? I don't know how to feel about this..

Can we at least wait until Saturday? We play the New Mexico State. Winner gets the spot.

If UTEP leaves, you can get our spot. Deal?

I agree. CUSA admin probably knows we are gone if they are going to invite NMSUx

Inviting NMSUx would absolutely not be for keeping UTEP in CUSA.

UTEP isn't on the chopping block. That was an odd way to put it.

Simply unbelievable if this is true.
