WAC commissioner Karl Benson stated today that Texas State and UT-San Antonio will make presentations to the conference Sept. 28. There are other schools -- perhaps as many as eight others, in fact -- who will make presentations as well, but, Benson said, "ntil they acknowledge their participation, I will defer until they make public that they're meeting with us."

The University of Denver has a meeting on Sept. 28 in Dallas to convince the WAC that the Pioneers need to be a member of the league. The odds of the non-football playing Pioneers being invited to the league in time for the 2012-13 season are unclear, but a first-ever NCAA bid certainly wouldn't hurt matters.
The hope for the Pioneers is the WAC decides to go with two non-football playing members -- the other being former WCC hopeful Seattle University -- and adds two football playing schools, more than likely Texas-San Antonio and Texas State (unless Montana decides to upgrade its successful football program). Adding two football and two non-football schools would give the WAC 10 members for 2012-13, eight for football. According to a source, the league is also meeting with UTSA, Texas State and Montana on Sept. 28 in Dallas.
