Because Hawaii has football they are a logical fit for the MW. The MW is desperate to get another FB shool so I suppose they will make Hawaii a good deal. I wonder if the PAC12 will actually offer Sac State as they also need a FB school. If the BW goes down to 10 teams I say leave it that way unless we add Sac State and San Jose State which is unlikely.
+ Extra Points’ Matt Brown and Action Network’s Brett McMurphy report the Mountain West and Hawaii are in discussions about the Rainbow Warriors becoming full MWC members. Brown adding: “One of the big unanswered questions in these discussions centers around Hawaii's travel subsidy obligations, and whether they can make the math work for everybody. Hawaii pays a travel subsidy in the Big West. As we wrote this month, Hawaii's late night TV slot seen as a potential asset in future league TV deals, not a drawback (thanks gambling!).”
This would not hurt men's vball but the ladies would play in a lower field than in the BW.
