probably because bsc has sac state on lockdown...ideally sac state would go to the bwc non-football...bsc football only...

unfortunately csub was the only csu available to keep the balance in the bwc between the uc's & csu's...not an ideal scenario...invite through association...

the bwc was more interested in keeping the peace between the uc's & csu's than evaluating by what a school brings to the table...

the bsc just wants to hoard western schools to hurt or possibly get rid of the wac...

exactly. after being oh so close to getting boise and sdsu back in 2013- and improving its profile as a conference - the bw got lazy and settled for ucsd and csub without receiving any concessions or promises. there is no benefit to bringing in csub, who wasn't even wanted for the longest time, and now that slams the door on ever getting back any former members.

ucsd brings world-class academics and decent d2 athletics...
csub brings not so world class academics and d1 athletics experience...

ucsd = academics (aau member/ivy league status)
csub = athletics (10 years d1 experience)

as far as concessions...ucsd & csub don't get the travel subsidies from HI...neither ucsd & csub couldn't get in on their own...they needed each other to get an invite...

curious as to what it would have taken to get the bsc to give up sac state...assuming sac state wanted to return non-football sports back to the bwc...
